I think the dedication sentence is confusing not because of the commas or lack thereof, but the fact that 'parents' and 'Ayn Rand and God' are different types of words. 'Parents' is referential; I don't know the name of this type of word, but it is not a proper noun as 'Ayn Rand' and 'God' are.

I had a 2e group with tha mix in it. I played the fremlin and we threaded up the mintaur's horns like a throne and he proclaimed himself king of all faerie kind and anyone who disagreed was told to speak with his chair. As an odd bit of trivia: because of the way we interpreted flavour text...

I think he's referring to the technique of preparing outcomes for several possible routes then only using the one the PCs choose; the players thus are never aware of any plot hooks and/or encounters on the unchosen routes(thus the "you never opened the box; how do you know whether the cat is...

I just about voted "Could not cae less" but after considering it, I like it. Not because of anything that has to do with the author so much, but because of what my thoughts do in reacion to the sentence "I devoted a whole book to this topic because it's just so cool". Usually I'va a vague idea...

I cast darkness and revel in the shadowy illumination ... Seroisly, though; flaming mook-on-a-stick lights up a cave pretty good, and has that 'leave me alone' vibe about it.

Sphere of Annihilation, Scroll of Disintegrate, or Vorpal blade?

Now that's bad. Really.

When I hit my head I get one of these.

Holy crap, Rystil. You're at 6200 posts!

I like Stargate; both the movie and the series. How to do it in an RPG tho ... I might say d20 modern, but I don't know d20 modern. As far as what in SciFi ... I guess it doesn't matter to me, as long as it's thought through; or if not thought through, there is room in the game system fo that...

I will accede my apparetn NOOB -ness and the fact I'm apparently not only stupid, but evil, and say: I've never heard of the Timecube before. It's quite the rant.

Lessee ... Less cool: Gnomes. +1 INT man! C'mon! That's what made them cool! Dragons. I won' throw in a Dragon now, because they are so needlessly complicated. Why do they cast spells and not have (Su) abilities, naturally anyway. Tarrasque. He used to be the big phish, but so much else has...

Possibly they are similar to protable holes, but with seatcushions. The perfect traveling companion for the adventurer in the 'Realism or Bust' campaign. Not only is it a handy lavatory, but also a useful no-stench fertilizer container.

I thought it was Neothelid. Am I being ... anal? ... pedantic? ... all of the above? Or is there both Neolithid AND Neothelid? Yikes.

A troll, I think. Any defenses brought in by the tadpole would be delivered under the assumption that the host creature would die soon after insemination. Since the troll wouldn't die, it's immune system would soon be able to overcome the defenses and destroy the tadpole-ish invader. But that's...

Eilistraee is possibly the worst word I've ever heard. Thanks for the experience, Rystil:) Anyway, why split hairs? Let's just call her Nyarlathotep and be done with it.

If I'm getting this right: C&C removes a pile of stuff(ie feats) from 3.5? INTJ ... I don't remember what the numbers mean, but i'm a near match to you: INTP. The test called me an architect, so I insulted its mom until it told me what it meant by that. I said I was sorry and that its mom...

I don't get it ... :(

It kind of read that way to me, too, Brent. Actually, when I first rea the thread title, I thought that there seemed to be something noticeably different about the new people(What's with those guys?). Wait aminute ... I guess I'd be in this group of 'new' too, wouldn't I? Look. I ramble...

I can recall one -"Crazy as a bag of hammers" As in: You are "..." I'm sure there are more, but I cannot remember them right now.
