    Is it ever a good idea to hit the party?

    i am surprised by the response of some of the first posters who suggest that friendly fire is okay if you talk about it and agree to it ooc first. i agree with the more recent posters who are saying that what matters is ic. would your character be willing to put other characters at risk? how...

    4E Class Survivor - Round 14 (We now have the final 5)

    just like in real survivor, the best classes were voted off a long time ago, because everyone knew that they would be too powerful to let stick around. of course the bard, with his high charisma, was picked out early, lest his pretty words corrupt all the voters. now we are left with the...

    Will Google Wave Play a Part in Your Game?

    here is a dice rolling robot you can add to your waves: tuxaios@appspot.com i think that until you have built up a good number contacts, there is not a whole lot that you can do yet, unless you are a developer. i am in wave, but still don't have any invites to give out. i think wave has...

    web 2.0 in your rpg games

    this sounds good, exactly the kind of thing i'd be interested in. i haven't seen the wiki on wotc groups. do you have to be an insider? or have i just not come across them?

    What if you brought 4E back to 1970?

    i also think the point of the op isn't to speculate how people would respond to the technological advances in the publishing world, but how they would respond to the game itself, a game that has evolved over 30+ years. it would be an interesting experiment, but you would need to take the rules...

    web 2.0 in your rpg games

    hey, as i'm living in china, and have been relegated to playing online, and being even further inhibited because i use a mac, i am very interested in how people use new web 2.0 technologies in their games. first off, if there are already threads on this topic that i'm unaware of, please point...

    Storytelling or Roleplaying?

    that doesn't sound like roleplaying at all. and it sounds terribly boring. well, actually it sounds pretty amusing, but in an out of body experience type of way. most of all, it just seems they aren't playing d&d. whether you call it role playing, or whether you call it storytelling, whatever...

    the worst party ever

    well said!

    the worst party ever

    for role playing purposes alone, i'd have to say 5 paladins. they would have no one to browbeat for being the wrong alignment.

    the worst party ever

    let's imagine your dm wants to keep your characters' identities secret from each other. he asks each player to come up with his character in secret. he says not to worry about similar characters. he'll make sure to adapt the encounters to the party. now, let's say, by random chance, every...

    [4e] New to PBP? Can't find a game? (Recruitment on hold)

    funnily enough, i had not really though through the implications of my idea. i was not advocating we start with nothing. i was just looking for a way to give us a common enemy, and a reason to be adventuring together. not that we would be running around naked using chair legs as weapons for...
