The "I Didn't Comment in Another Thread" Thread

[Cadence]

I suppose a follow-up to SZ's which race is which pizza thread, about which edition was which pizza (Neapolitan, Chicago Deep Dish, New York, Detroit, California, Sicilian, and Calzone vs. OD&D, B/X, 1e, 2e, 3/3.5e, 4e, 5e) would end up being a double edition war death battle, even if it was a + thread?

I didn't find much on FKR and Pizza. But this feels... bad...

Welp, at least that settles the old "What are hit points?" debate.
Based on this, it's now pretty clear that "hit points" represent "bad breath."

That would be a scorched-earth, take no survivors, thread lock in under three pages.

Now, why don't you throw in, "And the Warlord is which topping?" for bonus credit?

Or, for that matter, get a royal donnybrook going with a whole, "Toppings matter" or "It doesn't really matter what toppings are on a pizza" thread ....

Tentatively...

OD&D is Neapolitan. The spare and simple but delicious original. Before fancy elaborations.
Basic/Expert D&D is New York pizza. The standard. The classic. Simple and excellent, albeit sometimes you want something more complex.
AD&D is California, Detroit, and Sicilian. Gilding the lily a bit here, and sometimes screwing up the essentials.
3.x is Calzone. Same core ingredients but now wandering a bit afield in shape, form and intent.
4E is Chicago. Wonderful but some folks claim it's not D&D/Pizza.
5E is a blend of NY, CA, and Sicilian. Paring back from some of the excesses of AD&D, but still drawing back closer to the original recipe compared to the experimentation of 3.x & 4E.

So, I should start it?

Now, why don't you throw in, "And the Warlord is which topping?" for bonus credit?

What if Warlords and Psionicists were allowed... but only as halflings and gnomes, with preset ASIs, and they had to like pineapple?

Or, for that matter, get a royal donnybrook going with a whole, "Toppings matter" or "It doesn't really matter what toppings are on a pizza" thread ....

90% of Pizza is in the <pick one, cheese, crust, sauce> ?

I think I would definitely switch your 3 and 4, types (but not explanation) but otherwise looks solid.

I enjoy my pizzas like I enjoy wandering around town.

Naked.

I enjoy my pizzas like I enjoy wandering around town.

Naked.

...and accompanied by a fine alcoholic beverage.

The town guard needs to know: Is that a Charisma check or Constitution check to resist?
