    The American Office

    I only caught the last half of it. It was horrible. Like watching gradeschool children act out a scene from your favorite film. I thought American Coupling was bad, but this was much much much much worse. The only actor who was almost good was the Tim parallel. The Dawn parallel was too...

    400 Reviews eh?

    Congrats, and what Turanil said, except for me it only took one. (Though maybe it'll be like my first hike, in six months or so when the memory of just how exhausting it was fades, I'll do another one.) I do wonder where you find the time. It took most of my free time over three or four days...

    What are you doing for World TB Day?

    I'm gonna read me some Thoreau.* Well I would've anyway, because Walden is the current book I'm reading, but still.... *This is relevant because Thoreau died of tuberculosis.

    Bah! Spyware. Whinging ahead!

    WebSearch is a serious pain to get rid of. It's been a while since I had to wage war against it, but I almost think I had to manually delete registry keys to get it to stay gone. Well gone, until the next time my boss clicked on some website that installs it again. Oh, and I definitely agree...

    Zeppelins and Zhivago

    Don't know that I'd strongly recommend them, but WotC's 3.0 Arms and Equipment Guide includes rules for Zeppelins.

    May the luck o' the Irish rain down on ya

    And of course the Irish language is a great resource for character and place names.

    Happy St Patrick's Day

    Happy Saint Patrick's Day to everyone who's Irish, descended from someone Irish, or who just thinks Guiness or Irish brogues are cool. Dunno how historically accurate the stories of young Irishmen leaving home and going rovin' are, but if they are based in fact, I reckon they're probably the...

    Polyhedron has returned

    Ahhh, that might explain it for me as well. Hadn't thought of that. Thanks, Merric.

    Polyhedron has returned

    So anyone besides me who's a member and signed up for Player Rewards not get the e-mail? I know the RPGA had my e-mail originally because they e-mailed me several times in the wake of passing the Herald Level test.

    DnD 5e: Ready?

    What 5th Edition really needs is a computerized statblock generator included with the DMG or MM. Further, a rewrite of the various licences should require that in order to use 5E OGC in a product, any new rules presented in that product must be made available as an add-on to the statblock...

    [Help!] Buying a new Desktop

    No one's recommended Tigerdirect.com yet. While I'm another homebuilder (and will never have another desktop that I didn't build myself), I've known several people who've been very happy with machines they bought from Tiger. I believe they've all been Systemax brand in particular. IME despite...

    A Eulogy for NYPD Blue [Spoilers for Final Episode]

    Dunno if anyone else watched tonight's final episode, but I did and enjoyed it. It was kind of sad. Even though I know the show is past its prime and needs to retire, I'm still gonna miss it. Somehow it was both disappointing and relieving that the final episode was just a normal episode...

    Lot's of General in General

    For me they're a time-saver. I spend most of my work day driving, so surfing ENWorld isn't really possible. As a result when I check the boards at home after work it usually takes me from 45 to 90 minutes to get through the boards. The topic tags make it easier for me to avoid threads which...

    Lot's of General in General

    I'm snowed out of work today and bored, so I went through the first three pages of General Discussion and came up with categories/descriptions for threads which were tagged General. Recommend Product / Help Me Decide Which Product to Buy Player / Character Conflict Advice Miscategorized Hard to...

    [FR] What would happen if a dead sun god came back to life?

    What if all these suns set and rose at different times, so it was never night? Would that be enough to get Shar and Selune to ally against what would be a common threat?

    Search Request - Found!

    Yes he does, which is why I didn't go hunting through all his threads for you. :) Glad you found it though. BTW, I also recall seeing somewhere over at the RPGA website, that as of sometime early this year any PrCs (and possibly feats, I'm not sure) from the 3.0 splatbooks that weren't...

    Search Request - Found!

    I remember reading something along those lines as well. Release of Complete Warrior sounds like the right time, but I don't think it was Charles Ryan. Might've been Ed Stark, since he was one of the authors of that book. For some reason I wanna think it was in one of MerricB's threads where...

    Help finding a downloaded file on my computer

    I solved this type of problem by making a folder in the root of c: called "Downloads" and telling my browser, e-mail, usenet, and download manager programs to default to saving stuff there. I also set the folder view to sort chronologically so I can find the newest files quickly.

    Can I get a little IRL help?

    At least a couple of the places around here have pretty tight relationships with the Southern Highlands Craft Guild, so if he's not a member it might prove difficult getting some places to take his work. The Folk Art Center in particular, which is probably the most-travelled place around here...

    Where are your non-MM monsters from?

    Aside from the MM, I sometimes use all the WotC books in the poll, ToH I & II, Monsters of Faerûn and other FR books, and the Creature Catalog hosted here at EN World.
