    Please Help Paladin and Paladinwife...Award winners listed!

    Unfortunately, it was a long day at work, so I didn't get ahold of any of my gaming stores. I did, however, discover that my neighbor works two offices down from the organizer of one of Colorado's largest conventions. I'm going to see if they've picked out the con gift for this year, and if...

    Please Help Paladin and Paladinwife...Award winners listed!

    Point taken, but given your lengthy rant on Sean's site, you can see where the joke lost its funny. Paladin, in the spirit of everyone else who's been hitting their local gaming stores, I'll call the three I frequent here in the Denver Metro Area. --G

    The Holy Grail

    Of course, if you really want to break your PCs, pick up Preacher. It's a graphic novel published under the Vertigo line. The Grail as presented there, is really an organization dedicated to protecting the bloodline of Christ (ala the Alabaster Jar). Of course, in Preacher, the Templars have...

    You should find out what your state's homestead exemption is. If things get to the point where you might lose the house, talk to an attorney about the possibility of bankruptcy. In some states, the homestead exemption is large enough that you'll keep the house even after a bankruptcy. Only an...

    The price I quoted includes S&H. Pricewatch is a great place to find new components cheap. --G

    New Video Card?

    I just want to expand on what jdavis said above: 1) Don't bother buying an XT. Yes, they're the newest thing out there right now, but they're really just a halfway measure. They're primarily a marketing device, rather than a new technology. In terms of Dollars/frame rate, you pay a whole lot...

    How FAST should he turn evil? (Updated 2/9)

    There is, of course, another noble idea. The character could refrain from using the dagger at all, but do nothing to attempt to thwart the demon. If it's a noble and good thing to sacrifice your life to save others, it must be that much more noble to sacrifice your soul to save them . . ...

    Do archfiends grant spells in your campaigns? And if so how?

    I like the idea that Archfiends can't grant spells on their own. But, being exceptionally powerful, they capture demigods and torture them to reach the desired result. Just fear the day that one escapes . . . . --G

    How FAST should he turn evil? (Updated 2/9)

    I really like this answer. In fact, I think it's probably the best one offered here. However, I'd like to put out another option. It's dark, but definitely provides some good storytelling options. I apologize to the authors of John Constantine: Hellblazer. He should sell his soul some more...

    Jack Chick - A Parody?

    Except of course that Chick has become a total recluse, largely due to death threats against him and his family. Chick won't even give interviews anymore. In a way, it's sad. The man is crazy, no doubt about it. His particular brand of "faith" is filled with hatred. But no one deserves to...

    Pruning the right-click menu?

    For those of you who didn't read the Slashdot article, it's not NAV's fault. It's Verisign's fault. The /. article has directions on a work around. In a nutshell, just turn off . . . hmm, I don't remember what it's called. There should be an option that tells NAV to check office files...

    help me build a computer

    Having just gone through the same process you're entering right now, I'll give you some of my thoughts. Generally: Go to http://www.pricewatch.com. Unlike newegg and some other sites, they don't sell anything on pricewatch. Instead, they track prices across a number of websites. This is a...

    KotoR - Xbox or PC?

    I will add this to the mix. The PC version can be patched. The same can't be said for the Xbox version. I ran into a set of nasty bugs on my Xbox that caused the game to freeze. Fortunately, KotOR has great error handling, so the game was able to return me to a point near where the bug...
