    WotC New D&D survey from WotC as part of the 50th anniversary year.

    I didn't like the questions about becoming more or less popular. I mean, I live alone and spend all day on my computer. I have no idea what's popular.

    Evil Monster Ancestries - Yay or Nay?

    The social challenges of including orcs and goblins as PC species are something you construct for yourself. If you create a world where they have free will to be good or evil, there are no social challenges to handle. Mechanical issues for powerful monstrous races is another issue. I liked the...

    D&D General D&D memes thread discussion…

    I don't know, I kind of like this one. Very minimal, but in a way, quite refreshing.

    The "I Didn't Comment in Another Thread" Thread

    I gave up on delivery ages ago. Why pay a fee when you can just drive over there for a less than a dollar of gas, including wear and tear? And you don't have to wait for them to deliver to three people before you while your pizza gets cold. It is a bit worse for the environment, but not enough...

    What is your favorite RPG book of all time?

    1e Deities & Demigods. Yeah, the 1e DMG is up there, but this is the one that really captivated my attention when I was a kid.

    D&D 5E (2014) Making Divine Sense at-will OR last longer?

    I have it as a passive ability. It still has the limit of detecting cha mod +1 times (encounters) per long rest. After that it burns out until you take a long rest. You can suppress it as a bonus action and turn it back on as a bonus action.

    D&D General Weird space adventure ideas

    I was going to suggest stealing space herpes from Ice Pirates, but then I found out space herpes is real.

    Let's talk Virtual Tabletops!

    I got something like an 'Invalid map file' error when I clicked to upload the jpg to add a map to an adventure. I tried it with a different jpg and got the same error.

    Let's talk Virtual Tabletops!

    That does not look to have anywhere near the 5E support that Roll20 has, and that combat tracker does not look like it solves the problems I had with Roll20's combat tracker. Furthermore, since I can't even get it to upload a jpeg of a map to try it out, I don't think I will be switching over...

    The "I Didn't Comment in Another Thread" Thread

    I find it interesting that you all took my comment on UAT as coming from the programming side. That was from the user side. As a programmer, nothing enlightened me as to how stupid programmers could be as being the user in a long running UAT.

    Three things I learned from years of user acceptance testing: Common sense is not common. Intuition is not intuitive. Nothing is self documenting.

    D&D 5E (2014) Alchemical Savant and Greenflame Blade

    But the thing about Magic Missile is that it can deal damage to more than on target at the same time. But what if you are only targeting one creature with it? Then do you roll each dart separately?

    D&D 5E (2014) Alchemical Savant and Greenflame Blade

    If you can change the damage type and if you are using the RAW ruling for magic missile, I would say yes. But there is no way I am using the RAW ruling for magic missile in my games.

    One bad DM I had just had us floundering around. We had amnesia and were wandering around on an outdoor map that ended at the edge of the page in a mirror we couldn't pass through. We were only able to find one thing: a dragon who had no treasure (it was a bone collector). Finally after...

    D&D General PCs jumping to other campaigns/DMs

    I'd probably allow it, if they player was willing to fit the character into my character creation rules, and fit the character's story into my world. But my world is big. There's plenty of room for other places to adventure for a while.
