CAR-PGa NEWSLETTER Vol. 28, No. 9, September 2019

[Mike "Talien" Tresca]

It’s been a tumultuous month for tabletop role-playing games. In this month's newsletter we cover the controversy over a documentary about D&D's origins, the passing of Rick Loomis of Flying Buffalo, good news about the tabletop industry overall, convention reports, new material from our members, and the most comprehensive list of gaming conventions on the Internet. If you'd like to be added to our mailing list, why not join us? http://www.car-pga.org/join-us/

I've seen Kate Bullock's recent blog post on sexism (part 1) was put on the list of "new materials". Thanks for that. I'd like to add two other blog posts by another person I admire, Anna Kreider:

https://gomakemeasandwich.wordpress.com/2019/08/14/gencon-2019-learned-community-helplessness-and-the-benefits-of-actually-banning-predators/
https://gomakemeasandwich.wordpress.com/2019/08/19/on-forgiveness-and-the-messiness-of-who-gets-to-access-it/

Only just today I became aware of an Austrian dissertation dealing with RPGs:

Simone Gadocha-Gangl: Das Wirkmodell von Fantasy-Rollenspielen basierend auf dem Cognitive-Affective-Processing-System. Salzburg 2017. https://eplus.uni-salzburg.at/4363598 ; urn:nbn:at:at-ubs:1-1270
Here's the English abstract: https://eplus.uni-salzburg.at/obvusbhs/content/pageview/4364784
