Friends of The Escapist
I've made this page to give thanks to those
who have furthered the cause by putting up an Escapist link on their site.
Want to make the list? Well, here are the rules:
1. To be a true friend, your site
must link to mine. That's not much to ask, is it?
2. The link should include a small
amount of descriptive text about this site, so that surfers can get a good
idea where they're headed if they click. See below for a sample.
3. Your site cannot contain content
that is of an objectional nature.
4. For the purposes of this transaction,
I
am
the final arbiter of rules 2 and 3.
5. Banners are accepted, as long
as they are of a fairly managable size. An Escapist banner is listed
below, if you choose to do the same.
Sample descriptive text:
The
Escapist: The reality of fantasy games. Making the world a better
place for games and gamers since 1995. The Escapist is a website
devoted to gaming advocacy; dispelling the myths behind strategy and role-playing
games, and educating the public to their real-world benefits.

The web page of Feywulf, “a wolf Having or
displaying an otherworldly, magical, or fairylike aspect or quality, from

guess that’s what makes him magical!

the site for a game shop in San Diego.
Jeremy Fowler-Lindemulder’s nifty gaming site.
This is the fellow who talked me into starting a website... which eventually

quote from yours truly during the Columbine media frenzy: http://www.nuketown.com/features/colorado/quotes/

has excellent taste in casual footwear, I might add.
Johanna Mead’s RPGDL already has a link on
the main page, since it’s part of her webring, but The Escapist is also
listed on her buddies page. So I thought I’d return the favor.

collection of links.

themselves: "This site is dedicated to the development of these Virtual
worldlets (on-line environments for escapist entertainment), with the express
aim of assisting in, and hopefully, helping to speed-up the process to
transforming these worldlets into fully-immersive, realistic, believable
landscapes, populated by intelligent characters, civilisations, histories,
with every whim the player could wish for, open to them and thousands of
others."

AWOL. If anyone has seen them, please tell them to write and let
us know how life is treating them, won't you?
The home for homeless games. A site
that directs you to support for discontinued and unsupported games (including
Gamma World, which earns them major points from me). I wish I’d thought
of this.
WHAT?!? Your link's not on here, and you
have a link to my site? Let me
know about it! But remember - politeness goes a long way...
