Metagaming Monstrosity episodes
- Code Blue Ep. 3: Rolling Straight 8's
And here I thought the average of 2d6 was 7. And I'm blatantly copying things again. Mystery #3 03/17/23
53 min - (BONUS) The Eternal Castle, Part 2: The Blood of Kings
Final session for the bonus 1999 mystery. And yes, my realistic gritty urban fantasy campaign does have high fantasy creatures in it, thank you very much. 04/28/2023
2 hr 33 min - Code Blue Ep 2: Uh Oh
The Department of Energy in this world has an incredible budget. 20% of it is devoted to making the main office impossible to break into. Well, almost impossible. 03/17/23 Mystery #3
45 min - Code Blue Ep 1: Dr. Robinson?
Dr. Robinson seems a bit off, Duncan introduces himself to danger, and Luke attempts to become a Were-Wolf.
Trying a new format for a new mystery. I still have a giant backlog but I'm hoping having small episodes will help move things along.
Mystery 3
03/10/23
27 min - 26: W is for Worldbuilding
So many plot threads you could knit a sweater. Or you could just, leave them loose and unattended. And tangled. Knitting is an overrated hobby anyways. 03/10/23
57 min - 1 hr 6 min
- 24: References that only make sense to the players
The group looks for Rebecca (whose original name was Rachel but I messed up), and some old locations get rediscovered by new characters. 03/10/23 Mystery #2
1 hr 13 min - 23: Recovered Lost Audio
Alex and Willard deal with aggressive drivers. There's also Kenny! But who's Kenny? Also, the power cord for the recorder got tripped on for this session, and I had previously thought that the audio was gone completely. As a result of this, we backtracked on the canon and decided that a bunch of NPC conversations hadn't occured. Fortunately, I was able to recover that session's audio, and I've divided up what is still canon vs. deleted scenes. Hopefully I'll be able to post the deleted scenes soon. 03/03/2023
46 min - 22: Monster Hospital
A small bit of downtime, recovered from a session that got cut short. Also! There was an entire session of gameplay that I thought got lost due to technical issues, and I've just know found out how to recover that audio. Since there was some parts of the audio that stayed canon, I'll edit those scenes together and keep the "deleted scenes" in their own episode for fun.02/24/2023Mystery #2
34 min - 21: Cody's Still Sitting on the Floor
I think he lays down at some point? Also, this is the last bit of action for the Yale arc before we enter a bit of "downtime". Mystery #2 02/17/2023

About Metagaming Monstrosity
From the publisher's feed
(Hey! Good to see you again! Episodes going forward will be smaller and less frequent to balance the amount of time I have to make them. Thank you for sticking around!)
It's around 2014 and…
the world is falling to pieces, magically speaking. Despite the increase in unexplainable disasters and missing people, the U.S. government's own "Council of Human Development" has made no moves since the 1980's. So, a member of the DoE tries yet again to form an underground group aimed at protecting people before it's too late. Too bad it's these guys... This is a set of test recordings from a homebrew modern world based on mythos built up over 2 unrecorded campaigns (technically 1 and 1/2, since the "second" campaign used the same characters). System used is Monster of the Week, a Powered by The Apocalypse game created by Michael Sands. It's been heavily customized and most likely none of us are following the rules as intended. Note: A lot of the beginning of this was recorded on a 15 dollar recorder. Everyone makes mouth noises even when we try not to, and hopefully over time I will be able to make the players stop chewing on all of the equipment and hitting each other.
