You and I both know there are people like this who play D&D, and worse. And I would hope you know that no group of people, no matter how much like us they may be, should be above parody and satire. Everyone deserves time being the butt of the joke, or else comedy is just an excuse for...

Pretty simple: A male and female version of every class. I get that it may not be the race I expect, but it'd be better than nothing. Everything else would be icing on the cake, but I like the other ideas stated here.

Hope you had fun, Azmyth! --D. P.

No coverage of it here, either.

I am pretty much saying exactly that. Someone else mentioned, with a sad face, the mentality of players that want to "win" D&D -- a solo win in a cooperative game. The only way you can win a team game WITHOUT everyone winning equally is at the expense of the team. I do believe, from lots of...

As someone who lives just a few minutes from Hollywood and knows several people who work in the industry, I think you may be right about the "lack of coolness" factor they perceive, but I must take pains to point out that Hollywood types aren't exactly the most mentally & emotionally healthy...

You're right. I shouldn't write posts at 3-something AM. Vocabulary department has gone to bed.

Now now, let's be fair. I actually don't think Patryn is necessarily wrong at all. I just disagree. But Patryn's view is held by quite a few people, because the rules do not expressly state that view is incorrect.

Nothing to see here, move along ...

We discussed this a lot in our game once we hit 2nd level spells, because people wanted to start being resistant to 3 elements at once. Given that some monsters and spellcasters can hit players with energy type A as a standard action and energy type B as a different standard action, it didn't...

Katana_Geldar, I hope you had a good time at your convention. I had a BLAST at KublaCon, and now I'm hooked on conventions -- or maybe just hooked on KublaCon. We'll see. Thank you everyone for your advice; much of it came in handy and I followed it to the letter, which I'm sure made my time...

It's the part of the quoted text that most relies on understanding the episode. The line is a direct quote from the episode, and happens right at the climax and is, in essence, part of how Act 3 finishes. I've never seen an episode of Community except this one, but it was really well done, and...

Omigod. Four perfect characters for my next Doctor Who RPG game. I must begin work on this immediately.

No, sorry. I think the reason you've gotten the responses you have is because the question you're asking is extremely hard to answer. Switch "optimizers" with something else -- say, "dog beaters" or "really nasty gossips". Could you advise someone on how to be more ACCEPTING of dog beaters...

I suppose I understand your personal opinion regarding burst healing being a violation of what you prefer in your campaigns, but I feel compelled to point out a couple of things. One: Clerics cast less spells per day than they did in 3.5 at the lower levels. They max out at 4 slots per day +...

I apologize if I got the wrong impression from your statement. What I can tell you is that you will not be happy if you continue to run a game in ANY system if you are doing it out of a sense of obligation. You certainly won't enjoy it if you are running a system you no longer wish to run. If...

+1 to this comment for sure. I love realism in the party mechanics. Just because someone is a player in the group does NOT mean the characters of the party HAVE to put up with that player's character's shenanigans. They are under NO obligations to continue to travel with that person in a...

I'm not sure I really have enough information to advise you, but I do have questions: -- If you were to start all the players at level 1 and run Pathfinder again, but restrict all things you disliked in the APG and disallow all further books (or at least, not allow anything with your approval)...

All the reports in the world are meaningless, if the troll either doesn't tick off any of the moderators, or doesn't do enough, in their opinion, to warrant any action. I'm sure "one particular person" has had several reports filed against him already, and is still able to post at will.

I'm sorry, but when did I say she was sunshine and sparkles? Try reading what people write before you put words in their mouths. I said the whole flavor and tenor of the show would be different -- and it would be. That alone is reason enough to try someone new. The fact that Trump made a...
