    Do you regret the fact that you don't get to game as much as you would like?

    I do wish I could game more than I do right now, but then I remember why I don't game more than I do right now (too many other hobbies and too much work to do) and I remember that everything else is worth it too.

    Last day to preorder Ptolus - should I?

    Allright, I've done it. After a little bit of a struggle with White Wolf's registration system, my preorder is in. I can never resist a good book...

    Last day to preorder Ptolus - should I?

    I've been following Ptolus and the web updates on and off for a while now, but I never quite hit that 'preorder' button. Now it's the last day left, and I still haven't made up my mind. So, Enworld, what should I do? Is Ptolus really worth the price tag? I want to say that it is, but I guess...

    I'm recruiting new players - how does this sound?

    Looks good to me. You might want to consider some description of just where between roll and role playing your group is (especially if you're at one extreme or another), but it's not really necessary.

    Shemeska's Planescape Storyhour (Updated 29 Jan 2014)

    A new reply! Excellent! And a bit of grammar policing:

    College Dating Scene?

    I'm not really asking for sympathy, just curious what it's like at other places. Thanks for the info about John Hopkins (and Florida Tech, trancejeremy)!

    What would you play in this group?

    The mystic theurge idea is an excellent one. Other things I would consider are a druid or beguiler.

    It's too bad that we've lost another of our number. Rest in peace.

    "Roleplayed" - My new Short Film! Weeeee!

    Duh. I really should have checked VLC first. If VLC plays it, it plays on linux just fine. Thanks!

    Random Wilderness Encounters - How do you use them?

    I'm going to be taking a new attitude towards "random" encounters for the next campaing I'm running, starting this fall. For preparation, I've made a list of 21 plots (seven that began a while ago, in game, seven that are just beginning, and seven that have barely gotten started). Now, before...

    "Roleplayed" - My new Short Film! Weeeee!

    Wow! That's a fantastic piece of work! Very funny and well acted. Is there any chance that you could make it available as a divx encoded .avi or somesuch that would be more conducive to offline playing (and playing in linux)?

    Yet Another Lonely-Gamer Thread UPDATE 7-8!!!!

    Congrats on the resolution US! You, sir, are very lucky I wasn't drinking anything while reading your post. If I was you'd be on the receiving end of a bill for a new keyboard. :D

    College Dating Scene?

    (This is a repost of a reply I made in the giant, recently dug up "Are gamers really that pathetic" thread that I felt was different enough to be it's own thread) I'm in a fairly unique situation, and this thread [Are gamers really that pathetic?] brings up some questions in my mind. First a...

    College Woes

    This fall, I'll be starting my third year at Caltech (a science-math university in Pasadena, CA). The most valuable advice I can give you is to try new things, and don't be afraid to just jump right in (with the clear exception of drugs and other nasties). Some of the greatest and most fun...

    Campaigns in a nutshell. Adventures in a sentence.

    Karanos - In ancient times, the first emperor made a bargain with Death to gain his power. The current emperor tries to cheat the bargain, but the backlash destroys civilization as you know it, and seals away magic for hundreds of years as bizarre undead wander the land. The heros died when...

    what would you be in the dungeons and Dragons world?

    Str 8 - Based on lifting table in the PHB Dex 14 - I'm fast. Used to do sprints and hurdles in track, but for the past few years I've taken up Table Tennis and Shotokan Karate. If those two don't develop hand-eye coordination, then nothing does. Con 14 - I could get up right now and run 5...

    OoTS #332 is up

    And we get another fantastic strip from OotS! I love the convinient (or, rather inconvinient as the case is) timing of the borders to the valley.

    One Monster in a Huge Dungeon

    I'm with Schmoe on this one. The PCs definitely need a reason to be in there besides killing the monster and taking its stuff. If their goal is to hunt the monster, and the dungeon is of any decent size, then it'll either take forever (and get boring) or they'll need huge numbers of NPCs to...
