    Cryptosnark CDs (UPDATE)

    Hi all. To anyone who ordered a CD of Cryptosnark Games PDF products back in December and has not received it yet, I've been asked to post the following update (much of which was posted over the last few days on the Deeds, Not Words Yahoo group): Scott Lynch sincerely apologizes to those who...

    Cryptosnark PDF Package Deals on CD-- Limited Time Only!

    Many thanks. If you don't mind, also send my sincere wishes that things settle down for him soon. Sounds like it's been a bit crazy of late.

    Cryptosnark PDF Package Deals on CD-- Limited Time Only!

    Hi Corinth. An idea, if you have actual contact with Scott (which it sounds like you might): The original CD offer was for all current Cryptosnark PDFs plus some bonus material. Speaking for myself, I would be happy just to get the PDF products that were promised (and supposed to have been...

    Mongoose in 2004 - Long!

    I know that a couple of the older Slayer's Guides have been released in PDF format...have you considered doing this with other Slayer's Guides and especially the various Encyclopaedias? The Encyclopaedias were a series that interested me but that I never quite pulled the trigger on buying for...

    Cryptosnark PDF Package Deals on CD-- Limited Time Only!

    For what it's worth, you're not alone. I still haven't received a CD either, and there are at least a couple of people on the Deeds, Not Words Yahoo group who are also without one. No one seems to have heard from Scott in quite a while. Having just recently joined the Yahoo group, I got the...

    [Silverthorne Games] - Book of Templates - What Changed?

    Not really a major problem. Kind of amusing, actually. :) Good luck with getting everyone's links out to them.

    [Silverthorne Games] - Book of Templates - What Changed?

    Glad to hear it! After owning the book since the day it came out (first PDF I ever bought, in fact), I finally broke down and printed it on Sunday. Then I got the update message Monday night. Made me think I was the king of bad timing! (Guess now I'm back to just being a peasant.)

    The Oscar Buzz Thread! (Oscar Nominees Announced!)

    I was shocked at the nomination too, though I thought he really did deserve it. Yes, it was a comedic performance (which the Academy often overlooks), but he just "inhabited" that character to such a degree...every bit of speech, every mannerism, every move. Definitely Oscar worthy in my...

    Best movie nobody's heard of...

    Not nearly as unknown as it was BEFORE the Broadway version (and the rumors of Nathan Lane and Matthew Broderick reprising their Broadway roles in a new version of the movie). However, I agree completely...really funny movie, especially the first meeting between Mostel and Wilder. "I'm...

    Best movie nobody's heard of...

    The French film The City of Lost Children, directed by Marc Caro and Jean-Pierre Jeunet. Great "vaguely futuristic" fun in the vein of Terry Gilliam (who the directors admit was a big influence on them). (Their previous collaboration, Delicatessen, is also worth checking out.) It may make me...

    Great moments of movie magic

    The scene in "Jaws" in which Quint, Brody, and Hooper are drinking below the ship's deck. I'm always fascinated and drawn in by the way the scene movies from the initial lighthearted joking and comparing of scars to Quint's horrifying tale of the sinking of the U.S.S. Indianapolis, the...

    Cryptosnark PDF Package Deals on CD-- Limited Time Only!

    Perhaps he didn't get your e-mail. I too am waiting for a CD, and Scott has been in touch with me briefly regarding the situation. Apparently there was a major screwup by FedEx. Scott said he sent out 22 CDs just before Christmas, and only 10 of those (at the time of that e-mail) actually...

    How long have we all been playing RPGs?

    Got the Basic (red box) D&D set for my birthday in 1982.

    What artist would you like to see draw your character?

    For a "modern age" character, Timothy Bradstreet. (A few years after the purchase, his "Maximum Black" collection is still proudly positioned on my bookshelf.)

    Four-Color to Fantasy for Ideas?

    Whoops. Should have put this in the d20 Modern forum. My bad. Mods, feel free to move this thread.

    Four-Color to Fantasy for Ideas?

    Because there aren't many reviews of the revised edition of Four-Color to Fantasy (and I guess I wasn't lurking around EN World or paying much attention when the original was released), I thought I'd pose my question here: I do NOT own d20 Modern, and if I ever get around to running a supers...

    Cryptosnark PDF Package Deals on CD-- Limited Time Only!

    I see on the website that the CD sale eventually got pushed out to the 16th...is this going to affect the expected delivery of the CDs by Christmas? (It also seems that the revised PDF for Bold Costumes, Black Hearts, expected on December 2, has not appeared on RPG Now. Because this PDF is to...

    need a pit fighter ... quick!

    "Cityworks" (Fantasy Flight Games) has a pit fighter core class, basically described as "an urban alternative to the barbarian." For a gladiator core class, there's Mongoose Publishing's "Power Class: Gladiator" and also a writeup in the "Kingdoms of Kalamar Player's Guide" from Kenzer. Don't...

    $10 for 14 d20 products- offer expires Dec 1

    With over 6000 posts to your credit? The thought never crossed my mind! :) (Actually, I suspect you fall into that old cliche about, "You've forgotten more [about D&D] than I shall ever know.") Hope you were able to grab the PDF deal. There's some good stuff in there, though my current...
