I just coined a new gaming term: "Salt Mine."

A Salt Mine is an incredibly fun and fulfilling game for a DM to run that is still more work than a salt mine slave would do--and gives you the same precious, life-sustaining salt in abundance.

(My game has about 900 posts in four days and I've never enjoyed myself more. Best group of players I've ever had, every one of them completely different from every other, all getting along great and actively contributing to the common cause. They even keep inspiring me to keep filling in campaign lore and gameworld details I hadn't thought of before, and I foresee them creating a lot of fabulous campaign lore through their own gameplay if they stick with me.)

In reply to mickey65 (msg # 1):

I think you may run into an issue with the internet-approved use of the term salt, which is distilled from the tears of the insufficiently leet.

I actually love the idea of reclaiming that term for better uses. But it's unlikely that I can.

Good luck to you mining that salt friend, it is a difficult job, but we all hope there are folks out there who can do it and keep it up!

Check back in a month and let us know how you're doing.
