62. Tell the GM that instead of going to the dungeon, you want to try your hand at prostitution. When he declares that you now have syphilis, sleep with the mayor.

I assume that the mayor lives in a vanilla, faux-historic fantasy city, and therefore is most likely male. If you want to accuse me of sexism in general, that's... probably fair? I was focused more on the reaction that the clergy and population would have. 54. Burn down the mayor's house, using...

42. Give clear proof that the mayor is not only a witch, but also a woman 43. Build a church twice the size of the largest local church, and dedicate it to the mayor. Claim the whole thing was his idea. 44. Open a store in one of the poorer districts. Have a special opening day sale... 97% off...

26. Tell the GM that instead of visiting the dungeon on the outskirts of town, you want to try your hand at prostitution. You will probably get syphilis. Sleep with the mayor. 27. Start a drug war. 28. Make prized pieces of artwork into cigars, and sell them to peasants. 29. Kill The Batman. 30...

I think it's also the attitude of heavy metal, fantasy influences aside. Ozzy, Iommi, Ward, and Butler came from many of the same musical roots and substances as Jimi Hendrix (I used to have a bootleg of them playing 'spoonful', from before they were Black Sabbath), but then went tougher and...

Metal and D&D just seem to go together. In most other situations, I'm a classic rock guy, even a Dead fan, but when I want to get pumped for my game I go to Motorhead, AC/DC, and Pantera.

For me, Classic Traveller and AC/DC - Long Way To The Top

Not quite.

I would appreciate it if you would edit the answer out of your post, though, so that others can try. ;-)

Wrong. No XP for you just yet.

I'm going to be playing in a campaign of Chaos-worshipping, power armor-wearing, bolt gun-shooting futuristic warlords. In the course of creating my character for this game, I had to come up with a name. I found several names. Here are some of the best. See if you can guess the common thread...

Looking at the post more-or-less objectively, though admittedly while still on an emotional high *from playing D&D*, I'd say this mirrors my sentiments exactly. We don't need to all change to the new thing, and if people start seriously thinking of Next as the 'one true game', then BAM! That's...

Dungeon Alphabet is the best that I've read, followed closely by the random dungeon generators in the back of OSRIC. I haven't read Carcosa or Vornheim yet, though, so I'm withholding final judgement.
