    Gleemax = Enworld

    Agreed...Gleemax does sound a bit too much like a "happy ending".

    Haha, QFT...it sounds like "Kleenex". :lol:

    Dragons Are Disposable(D.A.D.)Membership drive

    I'm in - we already have aberrations, outsiders, humanoids and fey to come up with long-term, conniving, and genius plans...and I think they do them better than dragons. Maybe we could cut down on Dragons' other-species libido? ;)

    Buying Older PC Games

    I just use the zshops on Amazon.com. In general I don't buy from sellers unless they have at least 25-50 sales, so that I know I'm not getting any more lemons.

    Help me build a Vampiric City!

    In Isaac Asimov's Nightfall the inhabitants of a planet live in perpetual sunlight from several nearby stars. A freak eclipse results in a breakdown of the civilization, because the populace has never experienced daylight. If there were a permanent eclipse in the city, a reverse Nightfall...

    Planescape: The Perfect MMO Setting?

    Awesome idea! Like others have said, I don't play MMORPGs but this one I would get into! Although if I played in PvP I would clearly be the Nameless One! :p

    Help me build a Vampiric City!

    Sunlight would definitely be a problem. I think the city would be designed to have a lot of dark, shady places. Maybe this could be just an element of the architecture, so there are lots of awnings and overhangs. Or maybe a sorcerer or druid cast a powerful spell that limited light in the city.

    Will the Magic System be shown the door?

    GreatLemur - have you ever tried Mutants & Masterminds? You build your own powers, and the rules are very good at letting you do exactly what you describe here. I think with a little imagination you can change the flavor to fit D&D as well.

    Character Names - How Do You Come Up With Yours?

    I made a word generator! The algorithm essentially uses scrabble tiles to exchange letters that have similar values (A is as common as E, Z is as common as J, etc). Say you like the name "Vincent Valentine" but don't want to just steal it. If you enter that name into the generator it will...

    Need replay ASAP: Background music for Mechanus

    Great minds think alike! I also thought of some of the songs from the Command & Conquer, Tiberium Dawn soundtrack. Frank Klepacki composed them, and you can listen to them for free at www.frankklepacki.com (click on the CNC section). They're a little more modern-sounding, but I think the...

    Need replay ASAP: Background music for Mechanus

    I hear the theme for the Magitek factory from Final Fantasy VI for Mechanus.

    I need Undead

    I'd suggest a Death Knight as the mastermind. I just think their flavor is awesome, such as:

    Gear Matters

    I wouldn't say that staying in business is sufficient to be popular, although it is certainly necessary.

    Flaws for Fun and Profit!

    We've used this system of flaws from FUDGE (http://www.panix.com/~sos/rpg/fudfive7.html#faults) for ideas for more flavor-based flaws for our characters.
