Fan Club “Blog” #23: Getting into LARP oh dang oh no

The Furby's awake! Welcome back to business, Quinns Quest patrons! Happy New Year!

I've got a couple of announcements.

You folks will be happy to know that following 2026-01-19 16:11:07 +0000 UTC View Post

Fan Club “Blog” #22: Goodbye to 2025 😪

It's me, I'm the Furby

(No, really. I have sent this meme to at least eight friends in the last week.)

Motherfuckers, we DID IT! Thanks to your support...

Fan Club Video #10: Adding ROMANCE to your games!

We've got a new, long, Patreon-exclusive video! In it, I pop open the top button of two questions on everyone's lips: "Should I be doing romance in my home games? And how do I do that?"

In case you don't have time for the 40 minute answer contained in this video, allow me to summarise it! I think we should all have more love, roma...

Play to Find Out, S3E4.5: Familias Reunion

And thusly, after delivering something like 8 hours of content(!), our Nobilis season of Play to Find Out draws to a close. Please enjoy this extra-long talkback that is something like our review of Nobilis, I suppose! A game that ...

Play to Find Out, S3E4: Office Space

THE STAKES HAVE NEVER BEEN HIGHER! It's the finale of our Nobilis campaign! What's at stake? Existence! Peace! And, erm... offices? Lots of offices.

Perhaps more frighteningly, this episode of PTFO will test precisely how well Emily, Rob and I have learned the rules of Nobilis. Guns are drawn. Miracle points are expended. And I daresay the...

And Then Quinns Went on a Work Trip

Hey folks!

This is a quick post to say that for the next couple of weeks I'll be away from my desk as I visit the United States of America.

Why? Well, Like Dr. Frankenstein, I have stitched together several thingies that have no busines...

Play to Find Out, S3E3.5: Road to the Finish

This week's Play to Find Out talkback episode was recorded mere MOMENTS before the team of Quinns, Emily and Rob recorded the dramatic finale of their Nobilis season.

Think of this as the chat in the locker room before the big fight. Quinns is...

Play to Find Out, S3E3: Our Father

Can you hear some rattling, thumping, screeching and groaning? Sorry about that. It's just that our PTFO season playing the notorious game of Nobilis has reached the unavoidable point where we need to start... actually engaging with the rules.

If folks know one t...

Play to Find Out, S3E2.5: Rest Has Forsaken Us

There's a funny bit of time dilation at work here. To you folks, the Nobilis season of the Quinns Quest Actual Play show has been drizzled out slowwwwly, like so much heavy molasses. Each Friday you just get a dollop of plot, and then have to go bac...

Quinns Talks Actual Play with Brennan Lee Mulligan!

This is a horrific headline. There are three other people on this podcast, Dr. Emily Friedman, Elliot Davis and Play to Find Out editor Brian Flaherty. Unfortunately, none of them are 2025-10-21 15:54:58 +0000 UTC View Post

Play to Find Out, S3E2: What Do Nobilis Do?

Our season playing Jenna K. Moran's Nobilis CONTINUES! In what is becoming a PTFO trope, Rob and Emily had to do some work to unlock their (bizarre) character sheets, but this episode starts with them receiving them. And then wishing they had't.

You'll find those...

Fan Club “Blog” #21: Shocktober Fest

I celebrated my birthday this week! I am - I think - 400 years old

Let's not linger on such unpleasantness.

I want to tell you about how I celebrated, which was dragging four of my closest friends (all of whom are actually play...

Play to Find Out, S3E1.5: Surprise! You're Gods

Hey all! The next talkback episode about our Nobilis campaign is online! I just this second got back to my desk at home following a flight. ✈️

Perhaps this sounds cool and international?

Rest assured, it is not. I broke through my anti-perspirant about three hours ago, I had boiled sweets for lunch, and one of m...

Play to Find Out, S3E1: Nobilis

Our season of Jenna K. Moran's Nobilis BEGINS! Enjoy the episode, everybody, and also enjoy our first trove of downloadable files to accompany this episode.

We've got photos, Emily's powerpoint from session zero...

Play to Find Out, S3E0: Preparing for Nobilis

I absolutely love the start of a new season of Play to Find Out. It feels like I'm giving you guys such a treat! Laughter, surprises, truly lush audio design... today is a good day. 😊

So, yes: Today we begin the third season of PTFO, the actual play podcast where my friends and I try out notorious old TTRPGs from history. And t...

What's that smell from downstairs? Why, it's only Quinns in the bed & breakfast kitchen, cooking up a hot batch of waffles & thoughts.
