I have read a couple Story Hours on this site (none presently), but I don't comment. Frequent updating is important, but I'm more interested in an original story and characters.

I use Etherscope for all my steampunk gaming needs. It's a surprisingly robust variant of d20 Modern that includes just about everything you'd want out of the genre and then some. It may be a little more fantastic than you're looking for, but I've found it easy to tone down. That aside, there's...

For shadow powers, I hope they stick with "Mysteries." I loved that about the 3.5 shadowcaster. As for psionics, "Talents" seems like an obvious choice. For elemental powers, maybe "Fluxes."

In my group of 6, only 2 (myself included) are ENWorlders.

Yasunori Mitsuda, definitely. I've been DMing to the Chrono Cross OST recently.

I'm planning on sticking to the heroic tier. The only way I am likely to DM the paragon tier is if a game that started in heroic goes that far and we all agree to keep going, but, for the most part, I'm a 1-10 DM, just as I was a level 1-6 DM in 3.X. As a player, I'm really open to anything...

I love dragonborn, but I am still ambivalent toward tieflings. There is a dragonborn PC in my game, but my players haven't shown much interest in tieflings, either. I think I would rather have seen shadar-kai in the PHB to provide the Shadowfell side of the eladrins' Feywild coin.

MapTool. I use it for my PBP/VTT game and my face-to-face game.

I for one welcome our EN World 2 overlords.

D&D should be at least a little cheesy.

4e, but it's far too early to say how close 3.5's second place position really is.

Whoa. Reminds me of something out of Fatal Frame/Project Zero, which is a very good thing when it comes to spookiness. Consider it yoinked. :D

Reluctant Hero. I love me some 4e, but I would play older editions if I liked the DM and the group. That's just for D&D, though. For roleplaying games in general, I'm probably more of a Happy Player.

My face-to-face group is probably a little higher tech than most. We recently starting using a virtual tabletop program (MapTool) shown on a big-screen TV as our battlemap. Both of the laptops at the table can be used to move tokens around on it in addition to being used to reference rules. It's...

This is how I've been doing PBP for about 3 years and it works great (well, I've yet to run PBP in 4e, but it works great with 3.5 and some other d20 games). After all players have posted, I will roll initiative for that round, then go through and adjudicate each turn in order, posting the...

I was just popping in to say the same thing, albeit without the smile. Ugh.

It's probably more D&D to me.

That is what is wrong with epic levels in six words, not D&D.

I knew I would be in the minority with poison, but I was really expecting acid to get more votes. Maybe Wizardry 8 sold me on that concept...

Poison. Sure, from the metagame side you could point out that many creatures are immune to it, but I like the visual.
