    My XYZth post threads in OT...

    Setting aside your comment about PbP (which others have addressed), I don't think the value of having a high postcount has been de-valued -- assuming you assign value to it, which it sounds like you do. I'm by no means a prolific poster, and I don't visit every forum, but even I have a pretty...

    D20 Character Writers Needed

    I sent you an email a moment ago, from haiiro(at)gmail(dot)com. Please let me know if for some reason you don't receive it, and I'll send it again. :) I've also got one question: how are you handling contracts for this work? Thanks in advance, and I look forward to hearing from you soon.

    Rifts -- Who's played it?

    I can guess, but for your sanity, Psion, I'll leave it alone. PS: It starts with an "F," right? ;)

    Rifts -- Who's played it?

    World of Synnibarr? ;)

    Rifts -- Who's played it?

    I played it when it first came out, and stopped after the second or third sourcebook. The rules are terrible, almost uniformly so, and many of the sourcebooks I've looked through are 75% guns/robots/widgets, 25% other material. I like equipment books, but not that much! That said, there are...

    GenCon Name Badges

    Thanks for tackling this, CL! :) I've still got mine from last year and the year before. ;)

    DMG II v Advanced Game Master's Guide ?

    This is my favorite part of the AGMG, even though it's only a couple of pages. Much like the old SSNPC article from Dragon, this is one I think I'll be using for years to come -- it's very slick. :)

    DMG II v Advanced Game Master's Guide ?

    They're both useful. :) There's not a lot of overlap -- what overlap there is, is in the sections on player types and gaming styles. Apart from that, their advice heads in different directions (with similar goals), and both offer new rules and ideas that don't overlap at all. I've been GMing...

    Hastur rides again!

    You're supposed to turn them in? That seems pretty weak. Is it peculiar to your state?

    Hastur rides again!

    The Miskatonic plate wrap, Yellow Sign window decal, and M.U. parking permit help with that, too. ;) If I was trying to tick people off, I'd have gone for something like A55 0RGY. :p I've been a Mythos fan for about 13 years, and wanted a Lovecraftian plate since long before I got my first car...

    Hastur rides again!

    I had this same plate in Michigan, and I finally got it here in Utah as well. I'm pretty excited about it, so I thought I'd share. ;)

    Perhaps not a rule, but it might be worth throwing into the FAQ as a suggestion.

    Write for Poor Gamer's Almanac - The popular and growing free e-zine!

    I sent you an article a moment ago, from haiiro(at)gmail(dot)com. Please let me know if you don't receive it, and I'll send it again. Thank you for this opportunity, and I look forward to hearing from you soon! :) Edit: I got your response, Jraynack -- thank you! :)

    My XYZth post threads in OT...

    I tend to agree with Ferret on this one (celebrate the thousands), and I'm not wild about the idea of combining them into one thread. Personally, posting about my two postcount milestones (1,000 and 2,000) was meaningful to me, and gave me a chance to reflect on why I enjoy it here, say thank...

    BOB FM - Do they really play anything?

    There was a piece on NPR a few days ago about this format (and its cousins, like TED, etc.). In a nutshell, instead of having a playlist of, say, 200 songs -- like many major radio stations -- theirs is more like 1,200 songs. There's more diversity, although the format's providers tailor the...

    I got a fever! And the only prescription... is more cowbell!

    I remember two for sure, and I think there's a third one as well. "You are skittish, like Siberian palomino." ;)

    Advanced GM's Guide -- in hand!

    Thanks for pointing that thread out, Psion. I missed it, as you can tell. ;)

    Advanced GM's Guide -- in hand!

    After much anticipation, I finally got to pick up Green Ronin's Advanced GM's Guide last night, and it's quite good. :) Recent threads on the DMG II and the Advanced series (which includes Bestiary and Player's Guide) got me excited about it -- but I haven't seen a thread yet just on the AGMG...

    What's on your GenCon watch list?

    Is this actually coming out this year, or is it only "likely" to come out?
