    Judging character performance

    I agree about halfway. On the one hand, trying to force characters into fullfilling an archetype sucks. Let people build the characters they want and play the characters they want and don't get cranky because one of the "roles" isn't being filled. Also, with all the options out there, the...

    Is Paizo's Pathfinder really compatible with 3.5?

    My group has played 3.5 since it came out, just finished our first Pathfinder campaign and is starting up our second. This is what I think from my limited experience. The rules are similar enough that we transitioned without a ton of effort. Some of the changes we like, others we don't. The...

    The "I Like" Thread

    I like clean sheets. Fresh clean bedding is one of the best feeling and best smelling things EVER.

    Cheesecake: Yay Or Nay?

    As humble worshippers of the Church of Alton Brown can attest, cheesecake is not, in fact, CAKE. It is pie. Custard pie. A crust with a filling that is set with eggs. This, however, is merely a trifling detail. Cheesecake, in all its forms, is Full of Win. A more stirring debate might be...

    GenCon 2009 -- Event submissions?

    Subforum issue aside, I will definitely be looking for this when I buy my event tickets. This sounds to me like EXACTLY the kind of RPG event I want to play.

    Gencon 2009 Indy

    I know this is a very common way to make the trip affordable, but honestly, I'm not comfortable sharing sleeping space with strangers, even if I did find three other ladies to stay with. It works for others, but it won't work for me. I'll find a way. It's not definite that my friends won't be...

    Gencon 2009 Indy

    I had every intention of going for a third time this year, and started saving up my tips months ago. I already have more saved up than the trip cost last year... Then I found out that the people I go with might not be able to go, and that really puts a monkey wrench in it. For a variety of...

    Why do people not like certain foods?

    I've told customers at work with an utterly straight face that they should purchase the chocolate covered espresso beans, because beans are a vegetable, and thus they are healthy! Some people don't like some foods because of their tongues. A certain percentage of people are "super-tasters,"...

    LARPing

    I wanted a D&D-esque larp, but I couldn't find any rulesets for it...so I wrote my own. A pack of friends and I gather once or twice a year for larpage. We use boffers and little beanbags for spells. Character sheets are like a very simplified version of a D&D sheet. When it's time to play...

    Some employers won't hire WOW players... Supposedly

    Discrimination is only illegal if you're discriminating on the basis of race, gender, religion, etc. A protected group. Many states in the US are at will states, which means an employer (or employee) can end employment (or not start it in the first place) for pretty much any reason that's NOT...

    Christmas Treats, nom nom nom!

    aka...Yet Another Food Thread Christmas is a delicious time of year, and I cannot be the only one up to my elbows in flour for a good portion of it. What kind of cookies and treats do you and your families make at this time of year? We have certain cookies that it would be sacriledge to...

    I Will Kill You

    If I recall my news properly, that woman was NOT charged in the death of the girl, but rather with various computer related crimes and harrassment. This was not a person stumbling onto a site, reading ficticious accounts of a person's death that THAT person consented to, and doing something...

    Casting the OoTS movie

    V should be tilda swinton. She's elegant, almost aristocratic, would look good as an elf, and can definitely pull off the androgynous look. I think she'd be perfect, even if I think V's male.

    Gaming and Your Significant Other

    I don't have an SO but there are two couples in my group. One has been together for about a million years. I think he was the one who introduced her to gaming specifically (they introduced me), but her geek-fu was very strong before that. In the other couple, he brought her to the group...

    FAO MonkeyDragon - Sidekick Girl

    Wow, I never saw this before today. Thanks! My friend and I work very hard on our comic. Sorry about the ads. We don't get to choose them. Comic Genesis is a free host for webcomics and we HAVE to have their ads. Maybe I can get our webmaster to rearrange the site so they're somewhere less...

    Do you like buffets?

    I have to say, the most amazing meal I've ever had in a restaurant was at a Brazilian grill in Atlanta. I'd never heard of such a thing. See, I was kind of disappointed by the buffet, cuz there wasn't much one it. It wasn't until I'd eaten a plate of salad and potatoes that the Meat...
