    Cryptic T-shirt at GenCon - Help, it's slowly driving me insane

    In this instance, pork might be a verb... Honestly, I have no idea.

    WotC setting thing... Zulkir, help!

    I, too, am moving this month; the change-of-address forms aren't fool-proof, but I'm hoping they do the trick.

    Gay men or women who play D&D

    My boyfriend and I both play rpgs, and I know several gay and lesbian, bi and even a transexual who plays. Most of my group currently is straight, but I've actually DM'd for a year or so for an all-gay group, several years ago.

    Fantasy Netbook Community Council books

    None There should be an option for "none." Sorry, but I regard the NetBooks, as many gamers do, as a sci-fi fan would regard fan-fiction. Some of it's pretty good, you should try to get it published - at least as a magazine article or something; some of it's pretty bad, and I'll pass...

    Kingdom of Kalamar Calendar Query

    Don't have my KoKCS in front of me (oh, to not have to be at work today!), but that sounds right, yeah.

    Kingdom of Kalamar Calendar Query

    It should also be noted that the first day of the new year, Renewal 1, is also the first day of spring, not in the middle of winter.

    Did you know about D&D's reputation before buying?

    Back in '78-'79 it didn't have a reputation.

    Who would you rather have making D&D?

    I'd vote for Kenzer as my first choice, though AEG, Fiery Dragon and Malhavoc Press also have proven they can produce the quality of material I'd want to see in future core products.

    Greatest Villian of All Time (You Decide)

    I highly recommend reading Wicked: the Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West by Gregory Maguire. Elphaba, a.k.a. the Witch, is definitely the heroine. The Wizard is a despicable, though mostly off-camera villain, and poor Dorothy, in the end, is basically a pawn. It's a great book...

    Greatest Villian of All Time (You Decide)

    Hans Gruber, from Die Hard Smooth and suave, but sarcastic, vicious and relentless, too.

    What should happen to the Forgotten Realms campaign setting?

    Following is my posted response on the KoK boards to the repost of Sean's tale of the Rums. It does pretty much sum up my feelings on the future of the Realms. "Sorry, little elves. Find new homes. The days of the Rums are coming to an end. Something better and brighter lies on the horizon, out...

    What is your LEAST favorite setting?

    That would certainly be fair; I'll take a look at it. To be honest there were a couple of things I did like about the setting, mainly the Orders of Knighthood and the Towers of Sorcery. I also like the idea of minotaurs as player characters. Unfortunately, these things were far outweighed by the...

    What is your LEAST favorite setting?

    Damn, guy. Kalamar definitely does not want to be the Realms. There are no NPC's over 20th level, and every bartender in the world isn't over 10th level, as it is in the Realms. Kalamar wants to be, if anything, Greyhawk as it should have been: self-consistent, well thought-out beforehand, and...

    What is your LEAST favorite setting?

    I completely agree. I'd like to add that Kender and Gully Dwarves were the most game-disrupting character types ever concieved, and if I ever meet Hickman and/or Weiss, they can expect a some major disgruntlement on my part.:mad:

    Favorite Setting of All Time?

    I like the realism of the Kalamaran naming-scheme; it's consistent, and mostly easier to pronounce than, say, ancient gaelic or modern hebrew. The naming conventions in Kalamar are supposed to simulate five different human languages and a variety of non-human ones. It's not like in many settings...
