    Pronouns

    Y'all gather 'round from far and near, Both city folk and rural, And listen while I tell you this: The pronoun y'all is plural. If I should utter, "Y'all come down, Or we-all shall be lonely," I mean at least a couple folks, And not one person only. If I should say to Hiram Jones, "I think...

    RPG Illegal File Sharing Hurts the Hobby

    Speaking of out-of-print books going for ridiculous prices on eBay, does anyone know any sites that have electronic copies of old 2E D&D books available for download? I used to buy from Svgames, but the last time I checked their site, they seemed to have stopped distributing things that aren't...

    Is piracy a serious issue for game developers?

    As I said, I know I'm atypical- I've got maybe a dozen .pdfs, plus .rtfs of selected bits of the SRD. If anyone has any solution to the "try before you buy" problem my middle-of-nowhere location gives me that doesn't require me to rely on my friend with the huge .pdf hoard, I'd be glad to hear...

    Is piracy a serious issue for game developers?

    I don't know how typical my situation is, but I find that piracy is more or less an unavoidable neccessity for me if I continue to take an interest in accquiring gaming products. I live in a little college in the middle of nowhere, and I have no access to any real transportation to anywhere...

    Do wererats really have to be evil?

    I sort of use the historical perception aspects with all the lycanthropes in my campaign... with one exception. The standard European historical perceptions which almost everyone is familiar with don't apply universally- a lycanthrope's manifestation is grounded in the local perception of the...

    Critter Bits and Magic Recipes!

    Remember how I mentioned I was tired? Turns out I was too tired the first time around to make sure I wasn't posting something already listed. Oops... here's a replacement. Dragon 319's scryskull helms are occasionally created from dragon, ogre, or giant skulls. From Dragon 322's feature on...

    How do you feed your pet mind flayer?

    Fortunately for you, no matter what decision you make, the problem isn't likely to recur THAT often. The Illithiad says that mind flayers can survive on one good meal a month, and I don't think Lords of Madness has stated otherwise. (Feel free to correct me on that, though, since I don't...

    Monster Names

    Sorry for neglecting this, but between my summer job and the need to move my remaining stuff out of my dad's house before HE moves, I've kind of been busy. To tide you all over until I can go through the giant pile of Dragon magazines I'm shifting over to the other house, here's two novels...

    Is Thread Necromancy Ok?

    ...I probably shouldn't comment either. ::runs off to revive the Monster Names and Critter Bits projects::

    How do I make Necro =/= Evil ?

    Gnn, potentially more posting later when I'm not sleep deprived... but this has just reminded me of a nasty trick I saw someone pull with a ravid in a graveyard....

    ECL Races, EVER worth it?

    As Felon said above, with the additional point that while monster abilities may be duplicated by spells, feats, and items, etc, they don't consume resources to use the same way spells and items do. Even feats can be considered a resource, in that you're taking one feat instead of another-...
