Re: GURPS Websites: Blogs, Wikis, Feeds . . .
My blog covers all sorts of topics, but they are tagged into relevant areas; interested parties could look at just
RogerBW's blog: RPGs or RogerBW's blog: GURPS. RSS feeds are available.

Worlds beyond earth is primarily a gurps blog, focused in large part on world building and generation.

Re: GURPS Websites: Blogs, Wikis, Feeds . . .
Would someone who blogs please be so kind as to offer up an explanation of the "Thursday is GURPS Day!" meme here? We see lots of oblique mentions of this, but I've never found a good explicit description that I could make sticky. Thanks in advance!

Anyway, soon after I started the blog, I put myself on a fairly regular schedule of releases. I would do two session play reports per week (Crakkerjakk's Jade Regent Dungeon Fantasy campaign for one, and a Swords and Wizardry campaign for another), some sort of random entertainment-based post (like a writeup of a movie or book, or a trip to a shooting range). But since Thursday is GURPS Release day, and since it happened that I seemed to always try and have a GURPS-themed post that day, I started advertising posts in Google+ with "Thursday is GURPS-Day." The earliest I could find for the GURPS-Day meme was this post from Feb 7, 2013. I started the blog on Dec 26, 2012, so GURPSDay came pretty early on.

Re: GURPS Websites: Blogs, Wikis, Feeds . . .
Well done, DouglasCole! When I wanted to start keeping to a schedule, I just went with the flow. It tickles me to call it Thurpsday.
I'm kind of wondering now, though, which is better, concentrating GURPS updates on one day, or spreading out the love? Not sure. At any rate, I'm pretty stoked that there is such a treasure trove of GURPS discussion going on in so many different corners of the web that it's even a question to consider. :)

Re: GURPS Websites: Blogs, Wikis, Feeds . . .
We would like to acknowledge Thursdays as the day that GURPS-related blog posts – and new releases! – go live. If you're a blogger who covers GURPS and who puts "GURPSDay," "GURPS-Day," "GURPS Day," "Thurpsday," or some other variant in the title, tag, or label of your Thursday update, think about replying to this post with the URL of your blog's home page before this coming Thursday.
I'm already counting: http://gamingballistic.blogspot.ca/I'd like to consider: http://mailanka.blogspot.nl/. . . but ecto gammat. Thanks!

Yeah, obviously I do my best, and Thursday has been listed as "GURPS Day" on my internal blog calendar for a few years now. :-)

Re: GURPS Websites: Blogs, Wikis, Feeds . . .
For those that might not be appropriately fond of The Fifth Element, that means "Never without my permission." Meaning that even if you post every Thursday about GURPS, if you don't say "yes, please include me" you won't be included.
Or so I believe.
