Just found this site. (I’ve been avoiding reddit lately.) Now I’ve got an incentive to make D&D memes again. Migrating my old stuff gradually while I come up with new ideas.

Mega-dungeons are great. I’m running one now and I basically have zero prep, I made the dungeon and just see where they go. They go in the dungeon and explore, get into some trouble and grab some loot. It’s honestly so nice to have them dungeon crawling. My last game I was juggling plot lines across 5 cities and making custom content constantly in prep. I was burning out between 5e and building content every week.
5e Undermountain is a very poor megadungeon.
It’s also great for a sandbox game, even if it’s not focused on the dungeon. Having a default option really helps get things moving, or to still have a session if you don’t have everyone around (or if you want an open table).
We would try to create a map, then be like nope and go outside again
I’m the party wizard/necromancer/note taker and sometimes I do make maps.
Heavy Spoilers for floor 9.
We got the initial map image from the DM. This is annotated and updated.Did you annotate it, or are these the DMs notes?
We got the map from the “Headmaster”. Anything in the font for most of the room labels (Dining Hall, Library, Private Chambers, etc…) were already there.
Any rooms or halls on the far side of a secret door and any labels in a smaller font were my annotations.
Where did you find this map‽ that’s so much more than the first level of DotMM. Is this an old version of Undermountain?
Yeah. This is the 4e version of the 1st floor map. The 5e version is only a small corner of this, but I exaggerated a bit for the meme.

I refuse to believe anyone actually ran this module.
I’m in the middle of the 5e version at the moment. We’re level 11 and have reached floor 9 so far. We started December 1st of 2022 and play at least once a week.
Update: We finished the campaign last night on Friday the 13th (9/13/24). We all got out alive, with the majority of our loot, from the 23rd level, at level 19 (334411 XP 😁), but opted not to fight Halaster in the condition we were in.
