Didn't they take the forums down for a similar amount of time when Gleemax was being rolled out? I agree that they've allotted what seems like a very large amount of time for this, but they probably have their reasons. Either they don't know what they're doing, they don't have the staff, they...

I love the idea of divorcing world-time and time required for short/extended rests. It makes you able to run different types of adventures out of the norm. The one that comes to mind is a kind of political adventure with a lot of skill challenges and roleplaying, over a long period of time...

According to the PH1 FAQ, you only need one magical thrown weapon for multi-attack powers.

Yes. The load property allows for multi-attack powers. PH1 217. Only if he has Quickdraw. Crossbow: yes. Shuriken would probably require Quickdraw. Again, the load action takes care of it. Also, you can use a free action at any time.

The moster builder uses the DMG2 guidelines. Among the changes are elite/solo defenses no longer raising and solos having 4*HP not 5*HP. There are also a bunch of options "behind-the-scenes" that would change how the final stats come out.

There's some non-official (?) information available at Eberron Unlimited.

Those were guidelines I came up with in about 30 seconds... You are really asking a question that has no answer but "It's up to the DM." My view on the situation is that, barring a good reason, a character should be able to buy all the ritual components they want to, because it's more fun...

Generous guidelines: There are so many ritual components available that you'll never buy them all. Moderate guidelines: You can buy enough ritual components to cast your highest ritual 5 times. Conservative guidelines: You can buy enough ritual components to cast your highest ritual once...

I haven't looked at the specifics, but the problem is probably still there. There are just as many feats (I think) that modify Twin Strike. Therefore, Twin Strike will still be a better choice at the same cost.

Yeah, Level 11 is a huge jump in the power level of a party. You should tred lightly when crossing the tier barriers.

MM1 FAQ

The Double Move action allows you to add your speeds together. This applies when going through difficult terrain, moving through allies, and when jumping long distances. If it wasn't for Double Move, the longest you could ever jump would be your speed.

Correct. Marking of any kind has the "-2 penalty" thing. Certain class features or powers modify or add to that, such as Divine Challenge.

No. You get the enhancement bonus as an item bonus. 2 item bonuses to damage will not stack with each other. PH1 275, Bonuses and Penalties. AFAIK, there is nothing denying it, but it would depend on the specific properties.

More of a logical step than a guideline presented. Skills have a +1/2 level (maybe a full level) added in, so you should probably reduce them if you reduce the level far enough. It's really up to you. The difference between 2d6+5 and 1d10+5 is 2 damage on average. The "reduce damage by 1 or...

In short: No, monsters will not match up to the guidelines for monster making in the DMG. As long as you get close-ish, you're doing good enough. To change a Level 9 Bulette to a Level 6 Bulette, you would:Reduce Attack values by 3 Reduce Defenses (including AC) by 3 Reduce Skills (including...

One thing you have to learn about 4e is that it is very easy to separate fluff from mechanics. When you are a Barbarian, you don't necessarily have to be an "Uncivilized brute who wears a loin cloth and can't read." So, apart from the fluff, what kind of mechanics are you most looking for? Do...

There's no way to create something that you're looking for. Any at-will attack power than grants hit points at all will just grant temporary hit points. Hell, even a Lifedrinker weapon only gives you temporary hit points. You're best bet for a similar concept is to MC as Barbarian and take...

Fighting in this fashion shouldn't pose a problem much of the time. Charging limits you to a MBA, which is behind par for most characters. The only characters that greatly benefit are those made for charging, so why shouldn't they use their schtick?

No. You must attack a creature to mark it. The cleaved enemy is not attacked, it is just damaged. Did you attack the creature? If yes, then you can mark him.
