    Happy Birthday Fruthaka!

    Happy Birthday, Frukathka! Sorry to chime in so late in the day - I hope you had a really good one. :)

    What are your Personal Anthems?

    "I'm No Stranger To The Rain" by Keith Whitley - pretty self-explanatory, if you're familiar with it. "Heart and Soul" by T'Pau - mirrors the way I've felt about just about every romance I've ever been in at some point during it. "Maple Street Memories" by the Statler Brothers - pretty much...

    What is the Average Result of 2d20, Drop the Lowest.

    Just trying a quick little experiment in my head, sans calculator, and I have a question for the people who said they did 2d4, drop lowest: Is the average 2.7? And if anyone knows right off, is the average of 2d6, drop lowest, 4.05? And 2d8, drop lowest, should be 5.4? They probably aren't...

    Eberron: no sexism

    Of course, the other slightly more accurate and scientific way of looking at the difference between those two words is that all babies in the womb are female by default, and that males are just the ones who, due to the influence of testosterone, were born deformed and lacking all their correct...

    What alignment is House?

    Chaotic with a very slight Lawful bent, in so far as he has a personal code of conduct that he adheres to strictly - which is to break other peoples' rules any time they try to enforce them on him. Neutral with a very slight Good bent - he will do evil, neutral, or good things, but his ultimate...

    Which ENWorlder Would You Want to Meet?

    I've had the pleasure of meeting quite a number of the goodly folk here at NC Gamedays and would like to see any of them again (especially the lovely female ones :cool: ), but not counting people I've already met: Frukathka, Wizarddru, Thanee, Crothian, Jdvn1, Megamania, Mycanid, and I'm sure a...

    [Meta-Troll]

    Starts a big argument about who actually had first post, when it is obvious from the timestamps on the posts, and nobody really cares, anyway. Gets asked to take complaints about the way timestamps work to Meta.

    [Meta-Troll]

    Says hello back to Jdvn1. :) Doesn't report your post, but does write a witty and underhandedly snide diatribe in response that now clearly violates the politics/religion rule. Finds something in your post to compliment in order to try to make something that clearly isn't civil seem civil. A...

    [Meta-Troll]

    :Actually finds something new and original to say that hasn't already been said in 14 pages of posts, but fails to realize that it hasn't been said because, despite his own mistaken thinking, it is completely irrelevant and not very well thought out, to boot: :Tries to drag in a connection to...

    Lame Names

    We had a character in one game named Darmok. He had horses named Tenagra, with a number after it, and they kept dying - so Tenagra 12 would die, and he would buy Tenagra 13, and so on. In a D20 Modern one-off, I played Dr. Leonard McCoy - but played up the fact that the coincidence of his name...

    Was Dragon (or any RPG mag) your first exposure to gaming?

    When I was in the 4th grade, my mom used to drag me to a lot of garage sales, and one of them had a box full of issues of the two magazines and some miscellaneous other roleplaying stuff, mostly FASA Star Trek stuff. I liked Star Trek, so we ended up getting the whole box, and for pretty darned...

    It's time WotC fill us in on their digital initiative

    :hides pitchfork behind himself: :28 Hide check: :innocently: Whatever could you mean? :D

    Why I WON'T boycott WotC

    Me, too. But unfortunately, I think WOTC moving to digital is a symptom, not the cause, if you take my meaning. I love books, but a digital pad or a monitor screen is more cost effective and ecologically sound for publishers across the board, if they can get readers to accept them. Especially...

    Could the Death of Dragon actually drive you from the Hobby?

    I think you are being a bit cruel and prejudicial to the sort of people that do and will produce Dungeon and Dragon like content on-line. To use your analogy more accurately, in my opinion: Pink Floyd and the Beatles aren't gone. Because we will always have the original recordings, and because...

    Why I WON'T boycott WotC

    No boycott here, either. I think it is sad that the magazines have been cancelled, but I've been playing on and off for 22 years, and I think I've only ever used something out of either one of them ONCE. (An article on variants of Grue.) AND, I'm willing to bet that within a couple of years...

    What would you say to Orlando Bloom?

    "Yew shore was purty in Lord of da Rings. Hee hee hee!" :lol:

    What's Neat in Texas?

    Very true. For instance, I've heard that in the deeper parts of the state, stargazing is a must - the stars at night are big and bright.

    Would A Paladin Break The Speed Limit?

    And here I'd have thought he would ride his Special (Mercury) Mount-aineer. :D Dioltach - True enough. :)

    Secret Societies

    There is a website at http://www.masonicinfo.com/racism.htm, written by a member of the Prince Hall (Black) Freemasons that details what is going on, and he says that he doesn't see it as racism in the Masonic order, so much as in some Southern lodges. And he believes that it should fade before...
