    In-game rewards for out-of-game activity

    I want to give out some in-game rewards to my players for developing coherent backstories, keeping character journals on our campaign wiki, etc. but I can't think of any good ideas. I thought about using RPGA player reward cards but I'm not crazy about them to begin with and my players aren't...

    What do you like about 4E? (not a battle in the Edition Wars :^) )

    I've read and posted in a lot of threads about the relative merits and flaws of 4E: those posts make for great debate (this is, after all, a forum) but they don't really leave much room for general appreciation (this, too, is a site for D&D fans). Some fans--and I've been guilty of this...

    Never get on the boat.

    In my experience nothing lights the evil glimmer in a DM's eye so much as the characters boarding a ship: storm clouds gather, pirates sharpen their swords and seaborne menaces leap off the pages of the Monster Manual. As a player I never expect my character to safely sail from Point A to Point...

Maybe crossing the wires between work and fun blew a fuse in my brain :P I understand that posting on EN World is no substitute...

    Is the time right for electronic dice?

    Okay, as I don my flame retardant suit I'd like to say that I love my dice as much as the next guy. Maybe more so. I love the way they look. I love the clackety-clack. I love rolling them. I love seeing that 20 pop up in the middle of the table where everybody can see it, and I love the cheers...

    How much do you prepare your adventures, and how good is your "improvisation?"

    When I was DM-ing very regularly, and had more free time to think on the game, I found that my best sessions were the ones which came off the cuff. As I've gotten older, though, I find that the opposite is true: my games are better in proportion to how much preparation I perform. Ive found this...

    Living Greyhawk Character Question

    I'm just getting back into D&D and I'm new to the 3E ruleset. I've worked up a character for Living Greyhawk because I want to play in a tourney at Dragon-Con this September (ATL denizen here) and I wanted some feedback. Is this the proper forum for me to lay out my character and ask for...
