Is there an "Other" option? I usually am willing to discuss outside of the game what the players want to do. If there is a particular creature they want to encounter, I'll make sure it happens in some way. I've recently asked my players if the are willing to go along if I run Expedition to...

I'm some where inbetween. I collect Dragon Mags, Dungeon Mags, and just about everything that WoTC puts out - and read them cover to cover. And yet, I'm pretty disorganized when it comes to DMing and I don't have a perfect memory for the rules.

"Think 3.75E, Hope for 3.75E." ... although when I say "3.75," I don't mean that I actually care what they call it. They could call it PIth Edition for all I care. The main thing is that the "new" version remains compatable with 3.5E. There are several reasons why a complete over haul was...

It isn't the DM's job to punish players. If there is a problem with a player, you need to take it up with the player outside the game. Punishing players within the game often results in a DM vs. PC mentality or worse. And yes, I'm speaking from personal experience.

FYI, all positions in my gaming group are now filled. Thank you everybody for your interest.

More information concerning the game What: Eberron Campaign starting in Sharn. Characters are all members of a small adventuring guild. Adventures will not have an over-arching story line. House rules yet to be determined. How: A laid-back game for folks that just want to have fun and explore...

I’m looking for form a new D&D group to play on Wednesdays, every other week. If you are interested, please e-mail me at jmcrovis231 comcast net.

DM mostly, player sometimes. I really enjoy being a PC, but I've found that if I want to game at all, I would have to DM.

Other; it depends on which way the wind is blowing.

Yes, I've been asked not to come back before. I was one of three DMs, and I was going to start a planescape campaign. All (40 something) classes were going to be allowed, and over a hundred different "races", and everybody was going to be allowed two characters. The only stipulation that I had...

I voted before I read the first post... At 1st level I would encourage a new roleplayer to play a bard. You have a little bit of everything with a bard, so you're always useful. I... wouldn't recommend starting a new player above 1st level, but if it must be done, then they should play a...

I am either looking to form a group or join an existing group of D&D and D20 enthusiasts. I would be available to game on any weeknight and would be willing to travel within reason or provide my own home as a location. I am 26 years old, and would prefer to game with other adults. I am...

I'm in the 2-3 range. You want irony? I'm the local rules lawyer. Mistakes happen. If it's a mistake in the player's favor, I let it stand. If it's a mistake that kills a character, I often take it back... Unless we're playing Call of the Cthulhu. :cool:

Personally, I like the idea of Illumians. As a DM, I like options from which I can craft a new game world. I might not allow Illumians in a standard D&D game, but I am sure I could come up with something where they would fit. So far, I've enjoyed the "Complete" series and the "Races of" series.

I chose "something else". Right now we are using alignment, but in a couple campaign settings I have floating about in my head, alignment will not be used.
