HOT OFF THE PRESS!!! Rise of the Dead for CotM
I would like to nominate Kettle’s "Rise of the Dead":http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaigns/rise-of-the-dead for May's Campaign of the Month!
It’s not often you get a high fantasy veteran like “Old Twigs” nominating a zombie slasher but I’m sure all will agree that Kettle’s site is magnificent, sporting one of the best new OP Videos, a great WIKI with good navigation; and I can guarantee there are some really wicked zombie ideas ahead for those in the game!

COTM - Sept. 2012
I completely understand. "The Rise of Asmodeus":http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaigns/greyhawk-636-cy-the-rise-of-asmodeus is an awesome campaign and definitely deserves COTM. Davidnic, Madartiste and crew have an amazing wiki.

P.S.only one more favorite for the 200 mark Killervp. Way to go =D
I would be happy if either Rise of the Dead or Rise of Asmodeus won.... either way, a great campaign is rising....

I just wanted to let people know that while I am a little behind on the adventure logs, I have just posted "Session 8":http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaign/rise-of-the-dead/adventure-log/session-8 This session forced the character to decide if they were going to give up "Tabitha":http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaigns/rise-of-the-dead/characters/tabitha-ross in exchange for a group of hostages. It was a fun session.
I also wanted to thank my players for their awesome contributions. My players write a personal journal entry after each session to show their character's reaction to the events in the story. I have linked the journals from Session 8, below. Check them out and let us know what you guys think.

"Dr. Rivet's Journal Entry":http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaign/rise-of-the-dead/wikis/dr-rivet-journal-10/
I hope you all enjoy these. We are having a lot of fun with this game.
As always, thanks to this great community.

Thanks for the update. Many dilemmas, plenty of action, constant zombie threat. Note to fellow OPiates: To get an idea of the darkness, view this line detailing how one of the npc allies is dealt with:
"Grim quietly walked over to where Troy was tied down and pushed his spear through Troy’s head, ending his undead misery."
The various character logs of Tabitha Ross, Howard Barclay, Dr Rivet and Grim Walker all have their own styles. My favourite is Dr Rivet's.
I once again show my support for May's CotM nomination.

Kettle by far does the lions share of the work but we all try to add some great stuff on the wiki. "Rivet's":http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaign/rise-of-the-dead/wikis/dr-rivet-journal journals not only have great content but look amazing and I love "Tabitha's":http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaign/rise-of-the-dead/wikis/tabitha-journal as well. Both very fun to look at and full of good stuff. "Kevin Cole's":http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaign/rise-of-the-dead/wikis/kevin-journals "Grim Walker's":http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaign/rise-of-the-dead/wikis/grim-journal-1 and mine, "Howard Barclay's":http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaign/rise-of-the-dead/wikis/howard-journal all do our own things in blocks of text and are a little more boring to look at but are fun to read. I am tempted to do something other than just a block of text, but my creativity lies more with text than with coding or art.
Kettle hasn't posted Adventure Journal 9 yet, but for those of you reading it, its full of action and it changes things considerably. I cant wait for our next game session its going to be completely different.
In any case thanks for the interest and enjoy your gaming everyone =D

I am a little behind on the adventure logs, but we have completed Chapter 1 of the story. We were able to completed session 10 before I left and the characters were finally able to escape the cruise ship of death, as one player put it.
My original Idea was to have time pass between chapter 1 and chapter 2, but with me leaving for a few weeks, I felt it would be a great opportunity to role play out the time at sea. So far these "mini-scenes" have been really good at helping to flesh out not only the player characters, but some of the NPCs that received less "Screen time" during the previous sessions. Anyways, I am glad people like the idea.
Almost caught up with my adventure logs. "Session 9":http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaign/rise-of-the-dead/adventure-log/session-9 now posted.
And of course here are my player's journals. I hope you all enjoy them.
