Wahoo! I have been linked from Slashdot!

It seems someone has posted a link to my post “Wizards of the Coast stops all PDF sales” on Slashdot! And I am experiencing a lot of incoming traffic. Until now my host’s servers are still working fine, but if you experience some slowdowns you know what happened. 😉

To all Slashdotters: Welcome at the Stargazer’s World! Have a look around and feel free to check out my other posts! And if you like what you see, tell your friends about me. 🙂

Update: It seems this blog has had more pageviews today than in the whole month of February. I have to admit that’s a bit creepy!

Michael Wolf is a German games designer and enthusiast best known for his English language role-playing games blog, Stargazer's World, and for creating the free rules-light medieval fantasy adventure game Warrior, Rogue & Mage. He has also worked as an English translator on the German-language Dungeonslayers role-playing game and was part of its editorial team. In addition to his work on Warrior, Rogue & Mage and Dungeonslayers, he has created several self-published games and also performed layout services and published other independent role-playing games such as A Wanderer's Romance, Badass, and the Wyrm System derivative Resolute, Adventurer & Genius, all released through his imprint Stargazer Games. Professionally, he works as a video technician and information technologies specialist. Stargazer's World was started by Michael in August 2008.

I think Slashdot is one of the few I've managed to completely miss when it comes to incoming links. Well done 😉

I'm the one that posted the story at /. My first accepted submission to them! Woot! However, if you look at the original version that I submitted here:

You'll notice, no linky to your site. Sorry. The good news is this: I'm just now discovering your site thanks to the Slashdot posting, and I have it book marked now. And good news #2: you can thank Soulskill (the editor at Slashdot) for the link to your site.

Take care!
