Q. Why do you game? A. Because it's fun! Q. No why do you game? A. Um.. because it's fun? Q. Specifically though, why do you game? A. Because... all the hot chicks do it? Questioner: I see, thanks.

Actually a well written letter(s) from EN Worlders might do something for future programming. They are not going to re-shoot this episode, but they might make note that they have offended a good number of parents, ie: potential clients ($$) Earlier in the hear when Sony was debuting PSOne (the...

The artwork that Tony Scuzzdo (sp) did for the Birthright setting. Most of the work on that setting was his. The painting for the main box (and DM's screen) was just amazing. It captured the grit of the campaign and the sense of scale within it. The painting in question detialed a battle...

I used to have the same problem. Gamed since the early 80's and my DM kit was a large mess hidden behind my screen. Notes, books, cards, dice, and soda! Then I found DM's Familiar (from a link here in the electronic aids area). It's a Godsend. Well worth the money (you can try it for a month...

Relevant linkage: http://www.arcadiandelsol.com/ Lead article at that website is commentary on the "blame D&D" kneejerk that the media will sometimes toss out to add something to a story. Worth the read.

An important point not to miss is that this is a game. The function of time to make poison, and the small dose made, is more about the game than reality. Reality says I can go to my broom closet, mix up a few chemicals, and have a nice inhalation poison in mere minutes! Why can't I do this in...

I'll take what the others fear to have. Last pick. Which means the human cleric usually :) Let other players pick first and give me the character nobody else wants. :)

I know I have seen some Green Ronin there for sure. I'll check the o ther Osseum titles at my next visit ;) I will give them credit for depth of stock. They had darn near every WOTC 3E product, a healthy dose of Scarred Lands and Kalamar, and then an equal amount of lesser known products. I'd...

My two cents: Have the orc's press their agenda. Players are usually resourceful and might end up surviving, unless they are bull headed and don't know how to retreat, trial, and hide. Even if they are bull headed, the orc's are not entirely stupid. Send the main force in from the flank and...

I have definitely tracked authors and allowed their mere name to influence my purchases. I still inspect the product and see if it has anything that would fit my games, but just seeing certain names tells me about the general quality of a product. I like Rich Baker. His style and presentation...

I knew we could reach page 8 over the weeknd! :) Thanks to the joys of a wonderful wife I can sign on for the full day! Mark, I'd like to sign up for: Slot One, Game 3 - Moonlight Madness Slot Two, Game 2 - The Ghost Tower of Inverness Looking forward to seeing everyone.

One last comment on those CCG's Jester... I agree with your sentiment about not buying boxes of them that sit and collect dust. That's bad for business health. You want enough inventory to maintain the attention of your clients, but not so much that it sits on the shelf for years. Still, there...

Don't mix love with logic. :) Think back to when you were young and not married, how often did you use logic when you had a crush on a girl? Logic is a sharp sword that can cut through that angst instantly, but few people ever even think to wield it :) Logic and love... pffft! What a silly...

Which is how long page 7 seems to be lasting...

I would advise that you reconsider being officially against CCG's. Running a gaming store and keeping it open is not an easy endeavor. Even if you do not host CCG events, you should sell them to interested people as it is a source of necessary revenue. Many of your potential clients will...

Mark, my wife would be staying home with my three brats, er lovely children. ;) I'd bring my boy, but it's time for Dad to get to roleplay like a grown up. I took him to Gen Con and he had a blast but I didn't get to do any RP events. LOTS of Heroclix :) Other gamers from my group? You already...

In the early to mid 90's I lived in LA and managed to LARP a few times at a convention. I was never hardcore, just did it to try it and have some fun. One thing they did at every convention LARP event that I participated in was start with a brief listing of rules that helped remind everyone to...

Good point. Pencil me in for breakfast. I've been watching my calendar and it looks like I'll be in town on the 9th! I'll validate everything with the wife and then sign up for a game or two. I'd run CoC, but not having the books makes it hard to help! ;)

I like The Portable Hole But I also agree that you sould use "Games" or some other identifier to signify what sort of store it is. You could mix and match for your logo, Something like this The Portable Hole Games and Entertainment Thus giving everything to everyone. Gamers will see the...

OMG, auction this weekend? I forgot. :eek: Time to start frantically finding time and money to spend at the auction! Plus I figure the thread needs a good bump. I'm on a corporate network and those pictures are killing me :)
