    Looking for Gygax quote

    Wow, thanks Doug for that quote, which I hadn't read before. And Grodog, thanks for the win - Of course, the Soapbox Letters! In fact it was even the classic telling of Obmi and his boots. The entire introductory paragraph is exactly the quote I was looking for. :1: :1:

    Looking for Gygax quote

    So I can't remember if this was published or in an interview, and honestly I believe he has paraphrased himself on more than one occasion. But the quote I am looking for has him going on about how during the beginning he would be drawing up new levels and maps for his Greyhawk campaign as fast...

    My players having more fun than me

    Agreed and agreed. Being a player is much better advice, but whom will you lure into the role of DM? muah huah huah huah....

    My players having more fun than me

    OK, I am no psychologist, but my advice is: lighten up, clear out any accidental prejudices you have against it, and go with the flow. If your players are having fun, drawing new ppl and old ppl back, YOU ARE DOING SOMETHING RIGHT! Maybe because you really hate some of the choices the...

    Mainpage broken - pleaze fix or do somefink

    Pardon me for the crass thread title, but I would like the webmasters of this domain to consider the following change to the front page format: To list the 'news-boxes' by reference to today rather than current date. E.G.: Today/yesterday/two days ago...last week etc. Some of us dont have a...

    The tragedy of 4th edition.

    Seems like the 3E errata were of a minor nature to fix and balance things, but the 4E errors (to me at least) seem to be of a different nature, they are a symptom of a larger problem, not just un-polished, but I would have to describe it as "not well thought out..." The Eladrin teleport is my...

    Must be an Idiot - How do I search forums?

    OK, so call me an idiot whatever, I don't see a search function. I am trying to see if a player is exploiting the 3E spell "Mage Hand" by making it make attacks with his staff and I cant find the search function!!!

    The harder, the better - dm

    I agree with the Pictish king. I wouldnt allow dual weialding Bastards either - they are 2-hand wepaons with a special ability to be used 1-handed, they are not meant to be dual weilded, and it totally breaks with realism. I cant even imagine a human sized being wielding twin blades that long...

    Conversion: 4E to 3e (lol)

    I think we might be seeing the same thing. I havent actually played, but the basic mechanics of it sound well, really good. It is mainly the more flavorful, or I guess you might say "iconic, archetypal" aspects that I find jarring. Maybe there is some interest in a project "to update the 4E...

    Conversion: 4E to 3e (lol)

    OK, seriously not meaning to start any flames, in fact, consider this thread entirely dispassionate, I am looking for answers of a mechanical nature, not Messianical or even Maniacal for that matter. Proposal: To take the character/monster/magic core rules and de-evolutionize them to fit into...
