We’re looking at doing some heavy revamps soon, incorporating some new content, as well as (possibly) bringing back some old ones. The layout will be changing, as well as the logo.
So, I pose the question to you: What are you looking for in the Dice Monkey blog? We’ve featured a lot of out there series (or the beginning of series), some varied content, as well as a formerly frequent posting schedule. Here’s a list of some of the series we’ve done, or tried to get off the ground. If you liked that series, let us know, so we can deliver the best content possible.
Off the shelf reviews: In which I review products I pull at random off my RPG shelf
Recipes of the Forgotten Realms: In which Bridget shows you new and interesting recipes that are quick and easy to make, perfect for your gaming nights.
Critical Failure: The web comic about the misadventures of a gaming group
The Star Wars Infinities campaign: Combining SW Miniatures and role-playing to see what would happen if things changed in the Star Wars universe.
Do you think Dice Monkey should be a more focused blog? Or is the random element what you’re looking for?
Let us know what you think. As much feedback as you can give is most welcome.

I like Dice Monkey the way it is. I was impressed enough reading your postings via the RPG Bloggers network feed that I added your RSS to my reader. My favorite posts are the Off the Shelf Reviews and general 4e tips/play reports. I don’t really care about Star Wars RPG or Minis, so I generally skip those posts. The comic is good too, better than a lot of what i’ve seen as far as gaming web comics go. It’s a nice occasional diversion.

The only thing that I think you could do with improving is the comic. I don’t mean to er…be mean, but the art just isn’t very good. Maybe you should experiment with some XKCD/Abtuse Goose/Order of The Stick style artwork? Or, if you are using miniatures, maybe use them to represent characters?
Maybe you could respond to the RPG bloggers survey and do more GM tips and fluff suggestions? They always seem to go down well.

No offense taken. I’ll be the first to admit the wretchedness of the art. I’ll look into improving the art. Thanks!
