    A public poll displays the screen names for all voters and which choice they voted for. EDIT: I suppose I should check the rest of the thread before answering questions.

    Changeover Poll

    If your question is "How is the transition from 3E to 4E going for ENWorlders" then, yes, this is a very viable poll.

    Which CRPG has the best STORY? (Forked from: Do you not play WoW?)

    Better make it a third person then. :p FFI was my first FF game, but FFVI is my favorite followed by FFVII and FFIV.

    What's wrong with high-level/epic play?

    Except that I don't think there is any such thing as a "completely balanced" system. As I said, I don't think that a perfectly balanced system. For me, part of the fun of being a GM is seeing how a monster's abilities match up against the PCs, how it can challenge them, how it plays to their...

    What's wrong with high-level/epic play?

    I think this is a question that can only be answered by individual GMs. If I knew, I'd probably be a famous designer or something.

    What's wrong with high-level/epic play?

    And, as I said, I do think that 3.x needs some tweaking to work, however, if a system takes all effort out of the DMs hands so that he or she can grab any stat block without looking at it and run it without effort, then it seems some of the "soul" is lost. I think a DM should check out a stat...

    What's wrong with high-level/epic play?

    I see the problem, but allow me to play devil's advocate. ;) Shouldn't you (or whomever was the GM) have checked out the enemy's spells before hand to see what they were capable of? If the possibility was there for this to happen, couldn't steps have been taken to mitigate this (e.g. changing...

    [D&D 3.5 homebrew] Welcome to The Fold

    Okay, I think I have my character - Stone, a half-orc ranger - finished.

    Forked Thread: Difference Between Playing and Not

    It depends on how bad and the company. If the game is painful, then, yeah, it's probably worse than no gaming. However, if it is just mediocre and I'm with some friends, then that is definitely better than no gaming.

    Which CRPG has the best STORY? (Forked from: Do you not play WoW?)

    Torment spoilers from the Wikipedia article: Plot The game begins with the protagonist, known only as The Nameless One, waking up with total amnesia. He soon finds out that he is immortal; if he is killed, he will simply reawaken in the same body. He sets out on a quest to regain his lost...

    [D&D 3.5 homebrew] Welcome to The Fold

    Well, seeing as how someone else is playing a paladin (and a few other concepts I had in mind...:p) I think I will go with a ranger, a half-orc ranger. Stone Male, Half-orc, Ranger Alignment M, 6'4", 275 lbs., 19 Black, black, gray Common, Orc Str: 13 (+1) 11 Con: 15 (+2) 15 Dex: 17 (+3) 17...

    Which CRPG has the best STORY? (Forked from: Do you not play WoW?)

    My vote would also go for Planescape: Torment. FFVI would be a close second.

    [D&D 3.5 homebrew] Welcome to The Fold

    Hmmm...this could be interesting. I would be interested in playing a human paladin. I'll flesh out the concept over the next couple of days and get something more concrete posted.

    Treasures For The God-King!

    What about...nothing? They open it up expecting untold riches only to find the room empty save for one crystal ball resting on a stand. When they approach it, the crystal ball begins to glow. The face of some enemy (the king, a powerful vizier, a demon lord, something worse) appears and tells...

    Fun with Succubus's

    Have you read Sepulchraves's Tales of Wyre campaign? The whole thing kicks off with a succubus confessing to the paladin in the group that she had befriended him with the intention of seducing/corrupting him as ordered by agents of Graz'zt, but now she wants to repent. The problem becomes, of...

    Mearls Blog: PHB2 is his best ever

    I'm sure part of it is that anyone who creates things, whether as a writer or painter or musician, is inclined to feel that their most recent work is their best ever especially right after they have polished it and released it. They been slaving over it for awhile and pouring their heart into...

    3.5e 1st level adventure for a newbie DM?

    I think Sunless Citadel is a great module. It's been awhile since I've looked at/ran it, but I don't think you'd have trouble running most of it as written even if it is 3.0. Of Sound Mind is a great adventure and it has conversion notes if you are not using psionics. The Freeport Trilogy is...

    new Terminator Salvation trailer

    I'm still leery about the script, but I have no doubt that this flick is going to look awesome. Love the look so far.
