"Do you know anything about a guy going around playing the harmonica? He's someone you'd remember. Instead of talking, he plays. And when he better play, he talks." - Cheyenne, Once Upon a Time in the West

The gnome-ing was fun, but then Morrus sold out to travelocity and the big corporation had to go and ruin it; gnomes every where. :)

I agree with Mark's gobbledegook. The DM can really keep the "sense-of-wonder" going. My group has just shifted from one DM to another (we rotate about every 6 months). The first DM spent his 6 months sending us up against nothing but Apes and Dire Apes. No sense-of-wonder there, after a...

Tried it once without being logged in and nothing happened so my brilliant brain said "hey, maybe you need to log in" So I logged in an tried it again. Then realized it was April 1st. (And I always wanted a sig, just couldn't think of anything witty so this will do for now.)

Nice update! I find the multiple uses for the work "ninja" very funny. This one really cracked me up for some reason! :)

Here's my list, been to most of these places on Cruises: US Canada Mexico Bahamas Costa Rica Colombia Puerto Rico Dominican Replublic USVI Aruba (Netherlands) St. Martin/St. Maarten (France/Netherlands) Barbados Bermuda Panama Martinique France Spain Italy Monaco Vatican City Croatia Greece

And, Origins, in Columbus, Ohio is another big one

That's pretty much what the DM said as to why he gave the PC's a flank.

I'm 37, be 38 in a couple of months. The ages of the people I play with are 14, 15, 36, 37, 38, 38.

My group is a bunch of Baseball fans so we usually cal this "Getting the save"

Looking up for summons or polymorph is fine. What isn't OK is: DM: It's a Dark Naga. PC: Oh, what's that do? *Grabs Monster Manual*

A rule we use that I haven't seen listed here is: "No player is allowed to read the Monster Manual (or similar book) at the table" Basically, if you don't know what a creature can do, your character will find out the hard way.

If the PC has the cash they can buy anything out of the DMG. This would be limited by the size of the town or city (as described in the DMG), but if they want something and it's within the price range of the town or city, then the PC's can just buy it.

Yeah, I'd like to do it too, but my current DM is one of the worst about arguing interpretations. He won't just make decision, he makes a decision then explains why, which causes someone else to question his reasoning, and the seemingly neverending discussion is on! Actually, 3rd edition has...

Everything you said in your soapbox is very true (I just snipped it to save quoting space). But another truism is that a group should know it's own idiosyncrasies. And I know that for my group we really, really need everything explicitly shown as accurately on the map as possible to avoid...

Yeah, a little more accuracy in us drawing on the hex would help, but it doesn't happen for our group. I've gamed with the same guys for about 15 years and the DM and the players assuming different things from looking at the same map is a common problem. :\ As per MerakSpielman's question...

It's not really a problem with a hex map itself, but more of a problem with my DM's drawing skill and his quickly tracing a room and having walls poorly positioned becuase he can't just follow a straight line to connect them up. Then we'll try to get into some of the partial hexes and be told...
