    Time to update your resumes!

    This just in: The sky is falling! I think it's a bit soon to say anyone needs to ready their resumes. Maybe one or two people might, but that's only because in any company I've worked for, there's always one or two people readying their resumes. While Gleemax and DDI weren't my cup of tea...

    Does Adulthood Change the RPG Experience Much?

    I'm probably the exception to the rule here, but I've actually found a lot less people that I want to play with. In high school, I didn't meet a lot of gamers, but most of them I met I liked gaming with. These days I'm surprised by the amount of people I meet that game (or would at least like...

    Duergar: I'm shocked - a flavour change I really like!

    Put me in the camp that likes the sounds of this. Still not enough to get me excieted about 4e, but a step in that direction.

    Effects lasting until the end of the encounter, w00t!

    I'm looking at this in a way like the buffs are fueled by adrenaline. Which sounds a bit out there, but it would make sense with the idea of lastin for the encounter. As soon as there is no longer a perceived threat, a character's adrenaline starts to leave the system and takes the buff with...

    So... is anyone else coming around?

    Holy crap! It's like you were reading my mind when you posted this.

    New Design & Development: Paladin Smites!

    This new set up actually makes me excited about the idea of playing a paladin. I think the smite which makes an enemy focus on you for a round should come a bit earlier, but none the less, all three seem reasonable to me. A paladin, in my mind, is like a divine fighter, so it only makes sense...

    Speech

    I'm currently taking a speech class and have decided to do my informative speech on D&D. My plan is not to try and go over the rules with the class (as I only have 6-8 minutes for the speech), but instead give a general overview of D&D, mainly as a game, but with a quick look at the brand name...

    PS3/Computer/Wireless Question

    I currently have a DSL broadband connection (living in the UK, this seems to be all that is offered in my area). The connection only goes to my computer and to the best of my knowledge, I can't hook my PS3 up to it as there was software sent with the connection that can only be read by my...

    So I bought a new PS3...

    Does Oblivion not count as a real RPG? I've been stuck to that game like glue since I started playing it a couple weeks ago.

    UK RPG Day in one week!

    I was thinking the same thing. That, and I'll be getting on a plane early that morning to go back to the states for three weeks.

    D&D Computer Games

    I have to object here, at least partially. While I don't think it was your intention, there's an implication in this that non-D&D fans wouldn't know a good D&D movie. A good movie is a good movie regardless of what license it may be based upon. I know plenty of non-D&D players that enjoy good...

    What's the "goodwill impairment charge"?

    Gleemax UGT Final 50?

    There's no "B"s in there; of course you're going to fail. The correct formula is "ABACADABA". :)

    Gaming in the Military - Your Experiences?

    It's apparent to me now that I went through basic with the wrong group of people. This is pure genious.

    Gaming in the Military - Your Experiences?

    I seem to be the exception to the rule for military gaming as I have a hard time finding a group. However, while here at RAF Lakenheath it seems more due to my busy schedule than anyone else's fault. While I was at Shaw AFB, SC though it seemed I met nothing but people that said they used to...

    What games should I have on my shelf?

    I just want to second this. Luckily, I didn't pay for the game, but I still have a hard time understanding its popularity.

    Please, please, please be more liberal with spoiler tags!

    What about those "fools" that are curious about the movie and just looking for reviews so they can be sure they won't be wasting the money it'll cost them to see it?

    Attention people in England

    I'm in the US Air Force and they sent me over here. It's only for a few years, as opposed to permanent, but I'm here none-the-less. Granted, I wouldn't actually recommend you take that route to try and get here, but if you're that desperate...

    Does Saga Edition make anyone else jones for Star Wars in general?

    This thread is certainly making me want to check out the Star Wars Saga edition.
