Experience Points has been nominated for an Ennie for Best RPG Related Product!

 

"The working title for my book was Experience Points...but in the end, I wound up calling it Monsters, Aliens, and Holes in the Ground, a title I think speaks more broadly to the act of playing RPGs, rather than their mechanics.

It’s not a gigantic guidebook to tabletop RPGs. Rather, it is a small collection of chapters that, for a variety of reasons, didn’t appear in the final book (and I would invite readers to give these chapters the same sort of charity they might give to the deleted scenes included on a DVD). Nevertheless, I felt, in some way, that they still merit the motivated reader’s attention. They add additional texture and context. They’re a little more relaxed, a little more reflective of my personal interests, a little less concerned with the big picture and what posterity might think."

-Stu Horvath, author 

About the book:

Buy small and not big
The product was definitely an awesome product I wore the pants one time realize that I got a Size 52 I should have got a size 50 they are a little too big on me. I probably pass them on to a friend that's a little bit bigger than me and I need to lose 100 lb so and then all my other jeans will fit me but I will not have a problem buying any type of jeans from this company. I really enjoyed the product and I know I'll be buying smaller sizes in the future

retruns not free despite being labelled as such.
waist fine. length...rediculously long, thigh and calf stupidly narrow for larger sizes. also, despit it claiming that it offers free returns, they evidently charge something like $4? i dont know yet as they dont say exactly how much, but rather that it will be deducted from the refund. very deceptive.
