    I keep wanting to click a "like" button on people's posts in this thread - consider yourselves all "liked." :)

    D&D 3.x Wow! Look at this awesome new unofficial 3E news site!

    This item I posted very early on could stand as my mission statement for the entire site as I envisioned it at the time:

    Yeah, it ripped off an early 3E logo that had red lettering and a red sword. I'll try to dig that up at some point.

    Yes, you can see a bit of that on an early archive like this: http://www.enworld.org/ericnoah/3eoldnews1.htm

    I will say I am (probably unjustly) proud of the April Fools stuff in particular. It was fun for me if no one else. :)

    D&D 3.x Wow! Look at this awesome new unofficial 3E news site!

    Thank you for the kind words, Russ - and much more importantly, for keeping my tiny little flame alight and turning it into something stronger and more enduring than I could ever have imagined. Those two years were an extremely special time in my life because of the site and the people I met -...

    [November] What are you watching?

    I was recently introduced to The New Girl and got a kick out of that. Keeping up with Big Bang Theory, Arrow, Sleepy Hollow, Brooklyn Nine-Nine, Dracula, The Mindy Project, Parks & Rec. Kara has no interest in the genre shows but we both like the comedies. I gave up on Agents of Shield. I also...

    When and how did you learn to play D&D?

    In the 70s, and I was initiated by my brother, who was initiated by some school friends. Later I initiated some of my friends.

    Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

    And the trailer for the new Captain America movie looks promising.

    Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

    I could not get through Thor; I thought Captain America was decent.

    Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

    Gave it a try but just found it to be a joyless chore. Main guy's likeable enough, but I didn't care much about the others or what was going on. Admittedly only found the Avengers movie to be so-so (cared about Iron Man, didn't really care about the others).

    What are your last three RPG purchases?

    I kickstartered the Primeval Thule campaign setting. Mostly based on the names of the people involved; I don't anticipate doing much with it (or any campaign setting) other than reading it for the fun of it for the forseeable future. http://www.sasquatchgamestudio.com/ And I bought the DCC RPG...

    Do anything cool recently?

    Whether as player or GM, what have you done lately that you thought was kind of nifty? My 2nd level elf fighter got to stand on a bar in a tavern and attack bad guys with his two-bladed sword. He had just jumped out of an upper story window to get down to the ground-level entrance before this...

    Fantasy Novels: Do The Rules Of Magic Matter To You?

    I don't think you can have tension and excitement if you don't know what is and what is not possible. A good author will set up a number of "establishing scenes" that help us understand where the limitations are, so later in the story we know whether we are supposed to be worried.

    Best streaming movie/TV shows service

    I'm pretty patient in this regard. I'm a year behind on Game of Thrones and willing to wait rather than get cable to watch it. Also not interested in pirating it even though I know that's a pretty popular option with this show in particular.

    Best streaming movie/TV shows service

    I'm a cord-cutter (or more accurately a cord-never-haver). We use three sources: Hulu Plus (good for current TV and some past TV, annoyingly still with ads); Netflix (good for some past TV and some movies, very spotty coverage); and Apple TV (we rent the occasional movie through iTunes and we...

    Can you do nothing?

    As a teacher with roughly 10 weeks off in the summer ... no. I have to have some amount of work each day. I find that work renews my zeal for the rest of the time off that I do have. Sometimes work is just exercise. Sometimes it's housework or yardwork. And often it is me going in to school to...
