Good does not mean proactive; neither does it mean heroic. It also is not inherent in good people that they assume noise equals trouble.

Just this past week I told my group that I couldn't keep DMing because the game had become a social event and was largely unrewarding for me. I was getting flustered at every turn and DMing was just one big headache. To my surprise they said they were just as upset with the way thing were going...

Just wondering if anyone saw or read these interviews? http://www.cbc.ca/news/national/news/nhl/bettman.html http://www.cbc.ca/news/national/news/nhl/goodenow.html

While I will admit err on this point, I don't think it is as big a deal as you make it, and you certainly could have been more polite. Both sides have offered "consessions" though in both cases what they have offered is not in the same ballpark (arena?) as the other. Teams are responsible...

On that note here's a clip from the local paper.

Well, as they've been predicting for years the strike is here. And big questions are looming. When will it end ? :\ Will there be a season this year ? :( Will all the franchises survive ? :\ Will some of the European players go home, never to return ? :( Will some of the older...

I love Cosmic Encounters ! :D Other than that I will play anything that has some resemblence to a strategy game Axis and Allies, World at War, Civilization, Risk, you name it.

I came to this thread with the intention of complaining that the "real transformers costume" didn't really transform. Wow was I wrong. Kudos to the guy that made (and was inside) that. :cool:

Interesting observation; it goes hand in hand with changes I've been trying with the hp system. (I feel that some players are not as careful with their lives as they might be because they have trouble gauging how much trouble they are in)

We do something similar. People sit where they want. When combat starts everyone rolls initiative. We start with whoever wins and go clockwise from there. (ie. all that matters is who won; everyone else including the DM just go in the order they are sitting) Its not very realistic, and with...

Here's my list so far 1. Canadian Cities 2. Star Wars 3. Dungeons and Dragons 4. The NHL 5. Physics Equations 6. Isaac Asimov 7. McDonalds 8. Savage Garden 9. Friends (the TV show) 10. 11. 12.

My wife and I are big fans of the American game show Jeopardy ( http://www.jeopardy.com/ ). As anyone who watches the show knows a guy named Ken Jennings has made an unpresidented run winning over 40 games (as of this posting); the previous best was just 8 games. A game my wife and I have begun...

Not for me. When I was 15 I developed eplilepsy and for about five years the visits to the doctor were frequent and long. Now I go every three months to get a new perscription.

1. Null 2. The Isle of Dread 3. Unearthed Arcana 4. Castle Greyhawk

I usually DM, so I haven't had a lot of characters, but one that always stands out in my mind is an illusionist I once played . . . I came up with the idea that an illussionist ought to be trying to trick people all the time, not just when he casts spells, so he went under a guise - as a...

I haven't heard, is this even a possibility?

I don't think I could explain why I think they are telling the truth (ie. that its not a nuke) without trending on that ground. :uhoh:

One of the rules I was glad to see gone from the RAR in 3E. (not that I ever used it)

I'll second that. Edit: too slow - I'll third that

Some of my favorites have already been mentioned, but here are a few I haven't noticed. Red Arrow Black Shield - one of the greatest modules ever in my opinion, surely the best at bringing the pcs into a war In Search of Adventure - a great collection of low level adventures Creative...
