    Judges Guild revival

    Jg looks like C&C, not d20. Works for me, as I currently play C&C.

    For fans of the Wilderlands, there's big news: judges guild announcement Seems it was announced at Gencon. A very ambitious program! I, for one, will be pumped if even 1/10 of this comes to press. Geleg

    When Did You Start Playing D+D?

    The preponderance of those who started gaming before 1985 is pretty amazing (something like 60% when I voted - in the class of '78, incidentally). This must say something about those who frequent EN world - a lot of old grognards, I guess. Geleg

    How did you start?

    Like Wombat, Col Hardisson, Umbran, and others, I got into D&D before there were FLGs. I was in the local hobby shop (Tamiya tank models, RR stuff, wargames), with money to burn on a new Avalon Hill Wargame. My buddy and I saw this cool blue box with a dragon on it and decided to go with it...

    The Official Welcome Thread

    Greetings! I should say hi as well - I've been lurking for a long time as well (2000? - whenever Eric Noah started it all up) and am finally de-cloaking. I'm one of those people who desperately wants to game but finds that job and family pressures usually get in the way. This year, however, is...

    Part-time PhD...Doable?

    Rel, I've just spent a glorious hour avoiding work and reading the continuing saga of Samantha the Red. I'll echo all the praise - it's wonderful! Truly wonderful! I feel inadequate as a Daddy - we've only played "Connie" (Neverwinter Nights) on the Computer and told a billion "Princess Katie...

    Part-time PhD...Doable?

    OO and Rel, Yeah you sussed me out. I'm one of those closet gamers - buys all the stuff and dreams of the glory days (last die rolled seriously ... 1996/7 ... arghhh!) I've seen the Gaming Day stuff over at Raleigh in the past. NOw that I've got tenure, I just may give it a try .... I don't...

    Part-time PhD...Doable?

    Old One, It had to happen sooner or later (delurking, that is)! Yeah, UNCG - "the Research University of the Triad" (or so we're told). Only an hour from the Big Schools in Chapel HIll and Durham, and only 30 minutes from Wake. I've been in and out of gaming since '78-'79 and am currently...

    Part-time PhD...Doable?

    Guys, I'm a longtime lurker (first posting, actually), but I can echo Nakia's comments here. I'm a PhD with a specialty in medieval history (a fair amount on Norman history, but not the South Italian kind) and would be happy to offer what guidance I can. Let me say that the single biggest...
