* There was Borderlands news this week and Nathan is legally obligated to discuss the series whenever applicable. This time it's about a stand-alone version of Tiny Tina's Assault on Dragon Keep, the DLC from Borderlands 2, revamped as a Wonderlands one-shot in preparation for next year's installment. Will this be the kind of game we play as a team or possibly as frenemies? Only time will tell...

* Should the GM be in charge of the game world that the PCs inhabit or should the GM facilitate the world built by the PCs' actions? Chances are, you gravitate toward one of these more than the other. But what are the benefits of these models? Which ones have we been part of? How could we rethink our game to try the other thing?

* Since we're on the subject, how about collaborative world building? Imagine if you collectively as GM and players could build out the world you were playing in. How would that work and what options might you have to try it out? We have a few ideas on that subject.
