I don't know; putting the "natural 1" on this kind of makes the logo take on a whole new meaning ;) --Sam L-L

We're working on it. Preliminary results are expected in early 2003... And all the theories I've heard of have gravitational waves propagating at the speed of light, I believe... --Sam L-L

The starting prices are all really high; I'll be surprised if you get any bids. Just FYI. The starting price should be the absolute minimum amount of money you would be willing to take in exchange for the books, not the amount you hope you're going to get, because you probably won't get it...

Phlogiston.

Oh, all right, sorry. I was confused by the phrasing, I guess. It seems odd to me how disproportionately better your version of vorpal is on, say, axes and scythes than on swords, when I'm more likely to picture a vorpal sword... (Lewis Carroll was, too...) --Sam L-L

Uh, that's not how multiplication works in D&D. Some quantity Y x 2 x 3 = Y x [1 + (2-1) + (3-1)] = Y x 4 So you would have 4d8+48, mean 66. --Sam L-L

This character deserved every bad thing he got and then some, just for having that name. --Sam L-L

Welcome to my ignore list! --Sam L-L

In my mind, the debate is over -- this man wins. --Sam L-L

Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: The Abyss: Infinite or 666 layers? I know it's a cool thought, but unfortunately, just because there are an infinite number of planes doesn't mean you can find anything you want in them. Think about it this way: you can have an infinite number of apples without having...

Sounds good. Thanks for the help, guys! --Sam L-L

Okay, so I understand the concept of a skill cap: the maximum # of ranks in a class skill is level + 3. The maximum # of ranks in a cross-class skill is (level + 3)/2. What about if a skill is class in one of my classes but cross-class in another? Say I'm a Rog1 with 4 ranks in Hide and 2 in...

Right, and that's why fathers don't care about their children's welfare at all :rolleyes: This is true, and also I'd have a harder time breastfeeding a kid than a woman would, but I'm not convinced that this is really relevant to whether a male or female character thinks differently. --Sam...

Yes, there is magic -- just no magic items. I'm planning on allowing scrolls (oops, forgot about that!) but not potions. --Sam L-L

Can you guys tell me if this will be terribly imbalancing, because I don't have a feel for it: There are effectively no magic items in the setting. Only the gods can create magic items, and they are destroyed when the god is. Currently all the gods are dead; I expect the players will realize...

The description under elves in the PHB says "While meditating, an elf dreams, but these dreams are actually mental exercises that have become reflexive through years of practice." In the description of the Dream spell in the PHB (send someone a message in their dreams): "Creatures who don't...

If you don't like it and you're the GM, change it. Bam -- problem solved. In my upcoming campaign, the sexes are functionally equal in just about every way other than biological (humanity followed the example of the gods, half of whom were female and who were as active and violent as the...

So, I'm starting a campaign in 2 weeks or so, and I just realized I don't particularly like the look of the character sheet in the back of the PHB. (It's a shame since the rest of the book is so nicely graphically designed.) Has anyone seen better character sheets anywhere, preferably on the...

Have you considered buying and playing Diablo II? That sounds more like your sort of thing than table-top roleplaying games... --Sam L-L
