    Welcome to the Halmae (updated 2/27/07)

    Ahh, but you actually wrote it. Just a note for our gentle readers. When we started this campaign Spycribe was brand new to role playing. She's done splendidly, and is now one of our resident rules experts. -WLS

    [OT] Baby Troubles

    Mistwell, I'm very sorry to hear about your troubles. Let me offer to help in the only way I can. I have a friend here in LA who is a legal recruiter. She's a lawyer, a gamer, and a decent person. She might be able to help on the job front. Send me an e-mail if you'd like me to put you...

    Firefly ain't coming back

    Yeah, but they're all bootleg copies. Mutant Enemy has promised to fight for a real DVD release, so I'd rather wait and give my money to the artists. Not to mention that the official DVDs are likely to be better quality and have some extra goodies. No argument there. The ways in which Fox...

    Firefly ain't coming back

    FYI- Nathan Fillion (Captain Mal) has signed a deal with ABC to star in an undetermined new show. Contracts for the rest of the cast have also expired, and they will almost certainly be finding other work soon. This means that Firefly is not going to resume production anytime soon, although...

    Firefly cancelled!

    My pleasure.:D The DVD campaign is highly unlikely to succeed, but it's also well worth a shot. Even if it fails, it increases the chances of a similar campaign succeeding in the future. >crossing my fingers< -WLS

    Firefly cancelled!

    FYI Some fans are collecting information on demand for a possible Firefly DVD, if you'd like to participate. http://forums.prospero.com/foxfirefly/messages/?msg=4091.244 It certainly can't hurt. -WLS

    Classics of literature?

    Check out the link below for a great list of modern classics. The Modern Library also compiled a list of the top 100 books of the last century, but the Radcliffe Publishing list is generally considered to be better. http://www.lesekost.de/HHL102.htm I am particularly fond of To Kill a Mocking...

    dumbest game questions you never heard

    Sure. Go ahead and laugh. I was amused too. But you know, that colleague never did stop looking at me a little funny.... -WLS

    Women who Roleplay at Convetions: Stalking Incidents?

    I've gotten plenty of attention at Cons, and some of it has been inappropriate, but I've never felt physically threatened. I’m glad to say that I've never heard of any gamers being stalked, and I've never run into anyone at a Con who refused to take no for an answer. -WLS

    Firefly cancelled!

    True, and I should have paid attention to that in my first post. Still, if we spread the net wide enough we might catch a few voters. And either way, if we get people excited enough they'll write postcards or be primed to watch the show when it appears on another network. Of course, if this...

    Firefly cancelled!

    I'd suggest that people who are really steamed about the "hiatus" follow a previous suggestion and check out http://fireflysupport.com/ Then write a postcard to UPN about how much you love the show. It may be quixotic, but it's better than doing nothing and it might even work. Also, I've...

    Gameshops in LA, Ca?

    I don't know if it qualifies, but there is a WOTC store in the Beverly Center. The Beverly center is at the corner of La Cienega and Beverly, and is only a couple minutes away from you. Parking in the mall is convenient and dirt cheap, so don't be afraid to drive. And welcome to LA! -WLS

    roleplaying across the gender line

    Just to clarify what it is we're actually arguing about here: 1) Does anyone really think that a DM doesn't have a right to ban a particular character type when their players have consistently demonstrated an inability to play that type well? It seems to be generally agreed that if your...

    Piratecat's Updated Story Hour! (update 4/03 and 4/06)

    Sure. But it's not bad for Kiri to occasionally be reminded that there *are* worse things than spending hours listening to the Master of Protocol discussing the proper form of address for a Baron's cousin's sister-in-law.... (and you know I'm glad to see you guys no matter what we do)
