No, no one has taken up the June Topic. Are there any takers?

Basically, someone needs to volunteer to host June and supply a topic for June.

From the FAQ, here is what is needed to host.

=============

How To Host A Carnival

If you are the host of the carnival, then plan on writing two posts at a minimum.

The first post announces the topic of the carnival – which is up to you! After all, you’re the host! Sometime people also optionally blog about the topic in the same post they made the announcement. Personally, I prefer to break it up so that the announcements come on the first of the month, leaving you time to develop your post later in the month. Your mileage may vary. Take a look at some of the previous carnivals to get some ideas. In general, it may also be a good idea to include a link to this Archive page for your readers to check out.

Your second post should be a “round-up” of the Carnival. This usually comes during the following month. You can at a minimum simply have a barebones post that links back to all the articles written by other blogs on the topic; or you can write a meaty discussion piece that links out to all the posts AND discusses the topics from your point of view. It’s pretty open / flexible – whatever works for you is OK, but the key thing is the “round up” should include links to all the blogs who participated in the Carnival you hosted.

Participating blogs (hosts and contributors) for each RPG Blog Carnival are encouraged to use the 'official' logo (shown above) when posting content related to the carnival. The logo was decided by popular vote and was designed by Reis O’Brien of the blog, Geek Orthodox. You can link to the image via the HTML code fragment listed below or download them and use them.

Yes, if you go to the archive http://wiki.rpgba.org/doku.php?id=blogcarnival , you can see the list of all past carnivals including topics.

I see... That sounds fairly easy. Is there a list of topics already covered in recent history?

I'd like to host a blog carnival at some point over at our new blog Arcane Game Lore (http://arcanegamelore.com).  I was thinking of doing the topic of favorite NPC's from a current/past campaign.  We could even host it for June if no one else has signed up yet for next month.  Or we could do it later if someone has.
