    Is humanity still evolving?

    I believe all living creatures are evolving with each new generation but it may take 100s of yrs to see the actual difference. If a creature evolves at a rate comparable to the environmental conditions its evolving to, that determines if it continues to live or becomes extinct. I sometimes...

    Do you think it is reasonable not to tip your server?

    Spring1 I'd like to thank you for your epic level of Knowledge and Sense Motive on the workings behind the scenes of restaurants. The curtain is now down for all to see the blatant truth: Servers are the root of all evil! While I'm coming clean and confessing here I'd like to let you all know...

    Do you think it is reasonable not to tip your server?

    Scorpio616 She did not tell the table about her preferences they assumed it by looking at her. The article in fact says that when Dayna(sp?) first went to the table and introduced herself they said, "Oh we thought you were going to say Dan," and had a little laugh. She brushed off the comment...

    Do you think it is reasonable not to tip your server?

    Wow didn't think this would get so many responses. It looks like the majority of people here tip well and understand not to punish a server for something that's not within their control. Most servers I've worked with are going to school for something else, in which case it is a perfect job...

    Do you think it is reasonable not to tip your server?

    I just got home from work and saw an article about a lesbian server who was not only stiffed on a tab but the person wrote a note saying the only reason was because they don't approve of her lifestyle. To me that would be like saying my being caucasian was a conscious choice. Not only was it...

    Pathfinder 1E St. Louis area Pathfinder

    I should be moving back to the St. Louis area within the next month or so. What's the best way to find players up there? So far I'm looking here and on pen & paper games. BTW Kingmaker is a pretty good choice.

    Take a stand! LotR vs. GoT

    I went GoT for now because while not complete it is more detailed IMHO. But to compare the two in my eyes is like comparing a Model T to a 2011 Mustang. I'd rather drive the Mustang but every car built since the Model T owes some sort of nod to it. Tolkein did something that was not widely...

    What point buy system do you use?

    I used the Sunless Citadel only as an example, I figured since it's a 10 yr old module I could get away without putting everything in spoilers. I'm assuming that since he is new to DMing and between work, the wife, and the kids he may not have much time to create tailor made adventures from...

    What point buy system do you use?

    I'm getting ready to start a new game with a new DM who wants to use the standard point buy system with 25 pt. but I feel this system puts PCs at a disadvantage from the start. Take some of the published adventures like The Sunless Citadel which is a 1st level adventure. There is a weak troll in...

    LOST - bad season, or terrible season?

    I agree it was a little strange about the sub being so deep in so short a time. Not sure the water would be that deep so close to land but then I remembered what a friend of mine said about SCUBA diving. Going down you can hold your nose and blow out your ears to equalize but coming up you have...

    Tell me about the Midwest - jobs, housing, etc

    I'm originally from St. Louis and I would say avoid that town. Its a shrinking metro area with few decent job opportunities. I now live in Dallas TX with a steady if not growing job market. Right now I would say for jobs Texas is pretty good. Dallas, Houston, and San Antonio are all good job...

    R.A. Salvatore fans: Stat Charon's Claw!

    Here's my take on it. The sword's "Wall of Ash" would burn one attack per "wall" created. So if you had 3 attacks per round you could create two "walls" one behind you and one to the side and still take a swipe at the creature in front of you. The "wall" gives you total concealment (50% miss...
