    How to counteract a Disintegrate-happy PC?

    Yeah, don't stop it from working all the time. It's like taking away candy from a baby... or a kid's favorite toy. I'd say the best solutions are for any intelligent bbeg to protect only himself from the spell, or to send mooks at the pcs until the caster is out of disintegrate, and then lead...

    Most Unexpected/Funny Ways the PCs Killed A Creature

    Well, it required quite a bit of rules fudging... but... I had players go up against a Kraken, underwater. They weren't prepared for it at all. One of the guys was a throwing weapon expert. I let him swim inside the Kraken's mouth. He took damage every round, but used this dagger that did extra...

    Poll: DM, GM, or Other?

    "Game Master" sounds less... weird... than "Dungeon Master". Game master, to me, evokes the image of a fairly normal person who is running some kind of game. "Dungeon Master' evokes the image of a socially unacceptable person sitting in a dimly lit room, pondering manaiacal plans.

    Any way to make boxing matches more exciting

    IYO. Though I will say welterweight is more entertaining than heavyweight.

    Sacred cow monsters

    I'm not usually dyslexic, but I always read that as scared cow. Boo! Moo!

    Multifaceted Encounters - Get creative!

    From the Types of Challenges thread: So... here's the idea: Exercise your creative juices and put together some encounters which combine two or more of the above elements. I'm thinking that the elements should either combine to make a more difficult encounter, or provide alternate paths to...

    Tome of Battle: Bo9S classes in actual play?

    Maybe I'm not remembering right... but isn't WRT a 3rd level stance? Doesn't this mean you need to be a 12th level fighter to pick it up?

    Funny character names

    Would have been cooler as a troglodyte bard named Erroneous Skunk. Can't really adventure with a piano though, can you?

    Would this qualify as a chaotic nation? (somewhat long)

    I think it's possible that a chaotic society could be maintained as a system of cliques run by individuals with strong personal power, each manipulated by a single entity into constant conflict with the other cliques until a common enemy presents itself.

    Core Religion Survivor - Round Fifteen (THE FINAL ROUND!)

    Well, I'm happy with the results. I don't see how anyone can say Wee Jas is bland... especially when compared with any of the other deities that had been voted off. As far as I know, she's the only one who's undergone an alignment change.

    Is an "all caster" party feasible?

    Phht! Summon Creature I is the real anti-trap.

    Any Eragon settings in production?

    I read the book, then the movie. Did Eragon seriously say 'heal' for the healing spells? Is this OOTS? Aside from that, I am tired of movie producers changing inconsequential parts of books when there is no benefit from the change, and taking out important parts, and adding in bits that weren't...

    Is an "all caster" party feasible?

    At low levels, it's a bit tough. At higher levels, you can do all arcane casters, and just have everyone fireball the enemy on round one. Initiative is key.

    Core Religion Survivor - Round Eleven

    Uh... way to mix wildly different musical genres. I don't see her listening to My Chemical Romance. Call her goth if you want, but emo is where I draw the line.

    Why can only Ravens talk?

    As a side note.. and straying into the dreaded 'real-world religion' territory. I know a guy who worships Odin. He does not, however, have a talking raven.
