    Who does Steve Jackson Think He's Kidding???

    Hehe Heya: Well, when you put it that way, you make it seem like I spent a lot of money. Of course, I never got the T-Shirts (and I have Chez Dork instead of Chez Geek). ;) PS: I'll buy D20 Munchkin the nanosecond I see it. As someone above said (and as Igor always says), "IT MUST BE...

    Have you ever had a chance to meet a celebrity?

    Cons Heya: A couple decades ago a friend and I were on our bikes in a mall (actually standing on the pedals because riding them in the mall wasn't allowed) and Mickey Rooney (I think, one of those old (really old) actor guys) said, "My kangaroo can ride his bike better than that!" At a...

    Smallville - Visage [SPOILERS]

    Hopefully... Heya: The end of the episode made me think that we won't see any more: Clark: "Lana, watch out for that guy, he's bad news." Lana: "Clark, you're just being jealous. Now piss off!" [later] [Bad guy smacks Lana across room/graveyard/bridge/etc] [later] Lana: "Um, thanks...

    Party Conflict

    Hmm Heya: I've seen these types of posts and stories before and I've always wondered why people don't just say, "Yeah, and we're roleplaying heading north, see ya!" You know? These disruptive players always use roleplaying as an excuse, everyone else should, too. Of course, the few times...

    "Greyhawk" announced

    Heya: Yes, I can imagine it from PoR2 which was deeply flawed, and yet still fun for me. And then some guy (at www.alindyar.com) made a "speed hack" which let you speed up and slow down the game (via either +/- or 7/8, I forget which). _Huge_ difference. Those 20 zombies sloooooooowly...

    [OT]Which is more Evil?[/OT]

    Heya: Fun. It's so distracting for our children. Their little undeveloped minds don't understand that fun should be _rationed_ and apportioned, like veal. Take care, Dreeble

    Greater Magic Weapon stacks with "Normal" magic weapons?

    Quick question Heya: Does the enhancement bonus from GMW (say, +3) need to exceed the +2 in a +2 Flaming Sword to make it a +3 Flaming Sword, or does it need to exceed the effective/market bonus (whatever it's called) of +3 (+2 for the +2 and +1 for the Flaming) to have an effect on the...

    Dragon mag - December 1982

    Heya: I have that issue, too. Wow, memories. I think I started collecting Dragon (was it The Dragon in those days?) at around #51 or #52, but my grandpa kindly bought me #45 thru #51 all at once. Bliss. That barbarian prince game sounded like it was fairly cool. Not enough solo games...

    Ixichital, Ixispittle, Ixiwhosit...

    Heya: I thought it was pronounced (based on an issue of Dragon) as "itch it cha chit ul". Take care, Dreeble

    Please recommend some new SF

    Heya: Peter F. Hamilton's Reality Dysfunction series was a lot of fun. I'm not sure if everyone would call it science fiction, but I really enjoyed Steven Gould's "Jumper". Take care, Dreeble

    Drizzt's Anklets of Speed?

    Heya: Definitely Dantrag. By "explained", I meant that not until early in Passage to Dawn was it explained that Drizzt moved the bracers from his wrists to his ankles. On the other hand, I guess now that I think about it, it was strongly implied he'd want to do something along these lines...

    Drizzt's Anklets of Speed?

    Heya: Yah, and then I turned the page to page 20 and saw the explanation. Oops. Weird that Salvatorre didn't explain that in Siege of Darkness since I'm pretty certain Drizzt was running around real fast towards the end there. Maybe it was in the first draft and cut for length or...

    Drizzt's Anklets of Speed?

    Heya: Aside: If you don't like Drizzt, hey, no problem at all. Take care and see ya! ;) I'm currently reading Passage to Dawn and apparently at some point Drizzt got ahold of Anklets of Speed or something. This neatly solves (I assume) the problem with his Bracers of Speed making his arms...

    [OT] Icewind dale 2?

    Heya: Although it uses point buy, the point buy is _not_ weighted and stats can be lowered to 3 (before racial adjustments) earning points 1 for 1. If I recall, that means that your starting stats can add up to a total of 76. Personal (and quick) opinion: Well worth it if you like the...

    Is this a cruel DM?

    Heya: In a campaign where the highest level ever reached is 7th and a 5th lvl character just lost approximately 60% of his effectiveness, I'd have a tough time enjoying things. Even if there was some cool storyline thing that allowed everything to make sense in a cool way, I'd have trouble...

    [OT] mathematical query

    Heya: My vote: (A) 50% (B) 0%. If he had a daughter, it'd say "a picture of him with his son". Since he has two sons, the sentence reads "a picture of him with a son". Even the clarification supports this. ;) Take care, Dreeble
