    System to let evil party manage their own dungeon

    Things you could take inspiration from: Dungeon Keeper, the old video game. Dungeon Overlord, the newer Facebook game. Dungeon Lords or Dungeon Petz, the board games. Reverse Dungeon, a 2E adventure where you played monsters fighting off heroes invading your dungeon. Probably other games I'm...

    You're on a Boat . . .

    Can I call Poirot? Search their baggage. This is bound to turn up things not related but fun to reveal. You'll probably figure out two people who claim not to know each other are in fact lovers or brother and sister, or some weird combination. You'll find the key evidence to solve a previous...

    Alignments anyone?

    My 3 most recent character sheets don't even have an alignment written down, though I did tell one DM that if you threw a dart at an alignment chart it would land dead center. I'm a big fan of neutral. Not the balance good versus evil bunk, but I'm interested first in my friends and family...

    How Often Do You Actually Play?

    I clicked 2/3 times a month because it is as near to "we play regularly, irregularly" as I could figure. We try to play once every 1 or 2 weeks, but things happen and we don't, and then sometimes we get 2 days of gaming in back to back.

    Boxes from boxed sets: amount of use determines condition?

    I know I stepped on a box once when I forgot it was there in the middle of the night, going to the kitchen. After that I tried not to keep my gaming stuff on the floor. Also, the dog did not recognize the value of books, he walked over one after being out in the rain once, but that of course...

    It's Time for Going Away To Go Away

    FGU. _______ Games Unplayable. I only ever tried to play Aftermath, but that was enough.

    Plot transparency

    I don't know. People bring a bunch of baggage into games. We may want to be more polite and call it preconceived notions. If I've never played in a game where the spell fireball does anything except fit nicely into the squares I target and burn the bad guys, I may be amused, annoyed, or...

    Things I Miss....

    I miss random wandering treasure. This became our label for random encounters. Random encounters sometimes turned into fun side treks in and of themselves, like the time we tripped over a buried glass coffin, with adamantium trim after killing an I-cannot-remember. And that's what's...

    Players that just don't *get* the genre

    We just recently had a player not understand his cyberpunk biker gang wasn't the kind of organization that liked puppies and rainbows and that it was a world in which not everybody gets along.

    Generating random names

    I opened it up and it looks nice, maybe because of the colors. I also like the note: Don't change anything unless your confident. Technically it should be "you're" but that was not what I noticed until typing it here. It kinda reminds me of a linguistics chart, as the names are arranged in...

    In honor of Towel Day ...

    You know, I did skip over this topic because I thought it might be a reference to an obscure manga or maybe South Park. Finally decided to click the link. Did not know such a "holiday" existed.

    Cave of Forgotten Dreams

    Link for the lazy: YouTube - ‪Cave of Forgotten Dreams Trailer 2011 HD‬‏ Isn't there a card game based on cave art?

    This and that other one page collection are pretty cool.
