    Anti-Spyware program?

    It's actually called Spybot- Search and Destroy, and besides sounding like an 80's metal song, it's a good program. You might want to try it.

    I just GMed my 3 year old for the first time!

    That sounded like a fun afternoon. I remember that when I was a little kid, my Dad would tell these "man crossing the bridge stories" they started as a way to get out of telling a bedtime story, because he would say "Once upon a time, there was a man crossing a bridge. If the bridge had been...

    Rate The Grudge

    I haven't gotten out to the theatre to see it yet, but if you are talking about Toshio, then yes, it is the same person. The name is Yuya Ozeki. Like I said, I haven't gotten to see it yet, but the original was good, and the american one looks better. I heard that the Ring 2 trailer is shown...

    Too strange for words...

    Most of the people (that I have seen personally) are going for the whole snake motif. They do the forked tounge and the scale tattoos, and of course the metal ball subdermal implants along their brow. Hey, whatever makes them happy... :uhoh:

    Too strange for words...

    Yes, people can have naturally pointed ears. I do, actually. They aren't long like elf ears, but they are pointed instead of rounded at the top. It's called "Woolnerian Tip" or "Darwin's Tubercle". Charles Darwin named the feature after seeing the Woolner sculpture entitled "Puck". I couldn't...

    Throwing in NPCs to help along small parties

    Usually when one of my players cancels, we play anyway. But if more than one or two cancel, or if it's an important session like you said, then I would run a different game. We always have a couple on the back burner for such a situation, because it sucks making new characters all the time...

    Birthday Card, Troll, and Harry Potter

    Awsome art! Is the drawing of Harry supposed to be at two different ages? It seems that he looks a little bit older on the lower one. Maybe its just the shading. I like it though.

    Do you read short stories?

    Myself, and anyone else who likes the horror genre, will probably read mostly short stories. H.P. Lovecraft is my favorite author, he did almost all short stories. Steven King's short stories are also really good, same with the older writers like Poe. Stories are always scariest when they are...

    Aberrations miniatures gallery posted

    YES! Now that they released an Emerald Claw soldier mini, I can stop using all my re-painted men at arms! Oh, and that gelatinous cube does look awsome.

    Are you creeped out by something benign..something like clowns? Teletubbies?

    The eye thing creeps out a few of my friends too. We were watching Lucio Fulci's "Zombie", and I knew about the famous eye scene, but none of them did... ;) If you have'nt seen the movie, a woman is holding a door shut because there is a zombie trying to get in. The zombie's hands break through...

    Why would anyone become a lich?

    Yes, they eventually did the first option. That second one's pretty cool though. That's actually a good idea for a site in a campaign setting... Consider the idea yoinked.

    Why would anyone become a lich?

    In an epic adventure that I DMed, the group had to fight the Tarrasque at one point. A old wise man offered to help, he had a small gem that would trap Tarrasque if the monster ate it... Well the plan worked and the wise man left with the gem. Then later the PCs find out that the old man was a...

    (MODS: Please delete, starting new Poll) Choose the best d20 mass battle rules

    I really like Fields of Blood as a whole, and the mass combat rules are great. I don't have it in front of me right now, but I seem to remember some sort of system where each player contolled a realm in a campaign world, and the rounds went by like seasons, or something to that effect. A group...

    Christopher Reeve dies...

    There's not much more that can be said. He will be missed.

    Rate Shaun of the Dead

    It's kind of obscure, but I think they were referring to the fact that in the old Romero movies, the characters never called them zombies. They always said something like "those things". Either that or it was referring to the whole 28 Days Later "they're not zombies, they're angry people" thing...

    fable: frying pan?

    Yeah it is dumb. But it doesn't matter. There is always the Solus Greatsword, or if you are evil . The frying pan is just a let down after getting all those clues and hoping for something awsome... It's still awsome if you're mostly a will user though, I guess.
