    Siri is a UI game changer

    My oldest son, who has cerebral palsy, has used computers since the age of 2 (Macs, naturally). He tends to type with the pinky finger of his right hand. Now, with, Siri, he can press the home button and say "send a text message to dad" before speaking the contents of the text message. This...

    The gaming community: online compared to the physical world

    What happens in EN World stays in EN World? ;) I am hardly qualified to ascertain the differences between online and offline play, as I have not run a face-to-face game since 1994. I do not have a group of friends that I game with offline, nor is there a gaming store within half an hour's...

    Would you rat out a friend who killed a bad guy?

    It was not my intent to apply my experience with food banks to a global application. Granted, in some countries you'd loose your hand for stealing a loaf of bread. And now I feel the urge to look at Abandoned Antarctic Outposts

    Would you rat out a friend who killed a bad guy?

    So knocking them unconscious, dragging into the dungeon, and experimenting on them before feeding them to the bobcats would be overkill, then? Kzach - All things considered I'm glad your life has turned around, I'm glad to have you as a fellow EN World enthusiast, and I'm glad I never conked...

    Would you rat out a friend who killed a bad guy?

    Fair enough, though I do help a local food bank deliver food to local high schools. I have a 10-passenger van with a wheelchair lift, so it seemed to be the least I could do. Again, I agree. Perhaps things are different, here in my part of NC. There are a few food banks and shelters, for those...

    "Your Honor, I present Exhibit A - EN World. Ummm... Wait... the site seems to be down..." ;)

    Would you rat out a friend who killed a bad guy?

    Hunger is not a valid reason for thievery when there are food banks.

    Would you rat out a friend who killed a bad guy?

    I suppose, to clarify, I should mention that I do not in fact own a gun... Just a few swords, fantasy-themed knives, and a trident. ,)

    Would you rat out a friend who killed a bad guy?

    I'd keep quiet about it, but then again I do not consider murderers, rapists, and thieves to be human beings. If someone broke into my house I'd shoot them and bury them in the backyard. I would not involve the authorities. And I would sleep just fine at night.

    PCs dealing with sexuality

    The same man with multiple accounts. To me, that's creepier. Though, to be fair, I masquerade as a 1,000 year old undead hag and have a great amount of fun doing so... so who am I to judge? ;)

    PCs dealing with sexuality

    My current game is run in a chat-room. I often wonder if all of my players are in fact the same 54 year old man living in his mother's basement. Some people have trouble with "willing suspension of disbelief". I have trouble with "reality". ;)

    Being Human

    Season 2 of Syfy's Being Human debuts January 16th, 2012. Good, that give me something to watch while waiting for new seasons of True Blood and Warehouse 13.

    Puzzle Help

    When I think of "Eternal Library" and the far realms, the last thing that pops into my mind is an actual book. Envision these as "books": Or perhaps: Or at the very least: Though the temptation to have a vellum-hued dragon covered in runes... a Bookwyrm... would be great.

    PCs dealing with sexuality

    A night hag in one of my games shape-changed into male form and mated with one of her covey sisters, simply because they wanted to see what would happen... but I don't think that's what we're talking about, here. ;) For the curious, a "male hag" known as the krampus was born from the union. A...

    Goblin wedding! I need ideas.

    Perhaps the elder shaman was the only one why knew the dire secret, regarding the princess... that she turns into a human during the day...err...wait... wrong movie! ;) What would be the PCs reaction, if he discovered that the princess was in fact a nilbog? Or worse yet, a half-orc (In 1e, a...
