If anyone is interested at all in reading my Call of Cthulhu campaign (from start to finish), the journals can be found here:
http://www.yog-sothoth.com/blogs/2951-Max_Writer
It should be noted that they are in reverse order with the oldest ones at the bottom. Crack'd and Crook'd Manse is the first game I ran. These are mostly published scenarios. They are very long, very detailed, and pretty much all first drafts.
Thanks.

Damn, I forgot this thread was here.
I've been playing in a CoC game set during WWI and added a couple of journals to the link above, if anyone is interested in reading them. They are prefaced "Eric's Game." It seems like the threads are now in order from oldest to newest so you might have to click "See all journal entries" to get to them.

Dang Max Writer! I've gotta think up more things to drive Dr Reed to total insanity. I feel like a cat with many mice. Thanks for recording these sessions for posterity! :)
