With that logic, why not take it all the way and convert minutes/hours into rounds and cast everything in at most a full round?

If you roll a dN (N-sided die) n times and let X be the max of the n rolls, then the probability that X = k is: p_k = (k^n - (k-1)^n)/N^n. Thus, the expected value of X is: E(X) = (N^(n+1) - 1^n - 2^n - 3^n - ... - (N-1)^n)/N^n. For example, if N = 20 and n = 3, you'd get 15.4875, as was...

Does a fighter/illusionist, for example, use the better of the two classes' attack matrices and saving throws? If not, how does this work? Thanks in advance.

HeroForge is great for 3.5: D&D 3.5 and Variants Files Not sure if there is support for 3.0 or not, but you might look around and find something.

The PC reference sheet has a likely cut-and-paste error. The row for Con has 'Major Test' and 'Minor Test', and probably should be something like 'Survive Resurrection/Raise Dead' and 'Survive System Shock'. Also, in the table in the section describing Con, the column heading 'Survive System...

Excellent!

DoublePlusGood. Anyone who finds a way to quote the Butthole Surfers in a D&D thread quite simply wins.

Outstanding.

Play a changling. You and your character can learn as you go, and you can always "settle" into a gender if you're in over your head.

LOL. It's about 3.5 years too late, but you, sir/ma'am, win.

thanks for the lol, this really brightened my day, night, whatever....

Maybe when I read the title of the thread? ;)

Yes, of course I've heard of ebay. The thread is about continued support, not second-hand sellers, isn't it? In any case, personally, I'm more interested in whether or not I'll still be able to buy a given 3.5 adventure in PDF once the 3PP has gone 4E with said adventure line.

Ignorance? Take me, for instance: How much new/old 3.5E (say) stuff will be available in print? How much new/old 3.5 (say) stuff will be available in PDF? For example, I'm still not clear on whether or not I'll be able to buy DCCs for 3.5 in PDF. (Definitely no DCCs in print, right?)...

Replace "3.5" with any other previous edition and your statements still hold. I would interpret that to mean that 3.5 is headed towards the bargin bin right along side all previous editions, replete with minimal 3PP support. Only time will tell? Sounds like good/bad news for PF, IMHO...

So a more "user-friendly" GSL is... ...good for 4E -- more 3PP support for 4E means more options for 4Eers; those loyal to a particular 3PP will be more likely to give 4E a chance; ...bad for 3.5E -- more 3PP creative effort will be put into 4E and, thus, probably less 3PP creative effort will...

My situation exactly -- I have the books, one guy in the group says no way, but some are curious. There are probably others who are just waiting for the opportunity....

I voted no changeover, haven't tried 4E, though I admit to being "a little bicurious." The problem is that one person in my group has said no effing way, though I suspect eventually he'll want to try it given that he owns pretty much all things D&D (including 4E). I wonder how many people are...

I looked everywhere yesterday and couldn't find them...I gave up, hoping a link would magically appear soon.

Well, I didn't say rehashing -- I was quoting the quote that you quoted. :) And, yes, I am aware of Clark's announcement. However, he also announced support for 4E.... My only point here is that it is far from clear (IMHO) that PF will be the alternative to D&D and/or that it will be...
