    Fortunately to some, and unfortunately to others -- I return.

    Life decided to sort of bat me around for a bit, but after a rough break-up, and finally getting settled with my new love, I've decided to come back to ENWorld for some most righteous posting. I probably won't be able to post as much as I used to, but I've also concocted a lot of nefarious...

    Anyone heard from Dave 'O?

    Hey, folks. I just haven't had any time at ALL to get on ENWorld as of recent. I've been a busy, busy man getting ready for the move, and all (which is now to Mobile, AL for around a year, and then San Diego. Max (Terrasque Wrangler) told me about this post in an e-mail, so I thought I'd drop...

    (Writing)Stressed? Unstressed?

    Yeah, here goes. Let's use iambic pentameter for this. :D That is, five iambs per line, and an iamb is one stressed and unstressed syllable. Let's use a common word: candle. The stress in on "can" and the unstress is on "dle". It is said: CAN-dle. Get me? :D

    Ted's Cave

    Wow -- that's way creepy. Is it a confirmed work of fiction, or what? Will there be an update? Who did this? WHY?! WHAT IS THAT HIROGLYPH?! WHAT DID I JUST HEAR?! *gibber*

    You guys need to stop being so damn lazy and post some links. :D (For us who are at least twice as lazy, of course.)

    Manifest Destiny -- GAME thread (Chapter One: The Man who Would Not Hang)

    SCENE- Camera CUTS to shot of whiskey glass, as BARTENDER fills it for PIERRE once more, while PIERRE gives his dialogue. SCENE- Camera CUTS to frame containing NICHOLAS and some patrons, near the piano. After NICHOLAS finishes his dialogue, camera PANS to center on a patron in particular. He...

    So good -- I'm trying to get photos of my rad costume. :D

    Help me with this bard variant?

    I don't think there's a lot you need to do. Don't be so quick to go making a new class, it's a lot of work. Let's look at the Bard. First, they get the Cure Whatever Boo-Boos line of spells. Sounds nice and Divine to me! Their spell list is sort of wacky, and way Arcane, but that's what a Bard...

    5 Port A/V Selectors

    I personally use Pelican switches, and they work just fine -- actually some of the more high quality stuff I've seen. They're designed to look just like the PS2 shell, too, which is sorta cool. My only gripe is that if you wanna label things differently, you've gotta use stickers or something...

    Metroid D20?

    I think her gear is unique, but I do know that the better you did in Super Metroid on the SNES, the more naked she got. :D BTW, blackshirt5, it's Thom Yorke -- yeah, I know, crazy Brits and their spellings.

    Gamers: Unusual Uses for Non-Gaming Items

    I keep my d6's in a small, yellow-transparent plastic constainer that formerly held... POKEMON BUBBLE GUM! :D It is by far the coolest gaming item one can own.

    Manifest Destiny -- GAME thread (Chapter One: The Man who Would Not Hang)

    SCENE- Camera CUTS to frame just beyond NICHOLAS at the piano. As his song begins, and several patrons smile and begin to stamp along to the tune, the camera PANS past across HONG, to ELIAS. He murmurs to himself, saying "Sword, pistol, two swords..." as the camera CUTS to each weapon on whoever...

    Manifest Destiny -- Weird 1840s DnD3e Idea. (FULL!)

    OH MY GOD. So, I've been the busiest person ever and this is the first time I've touched my computer in, oh, WEEKS. HEY. ARE WE STILL DOING THIS THING? (I am sorry.)

    I had it in my hands and could not take it home.

    There's supposed to be some super rad edition coming out once the entire trilogy makes DVD. I'm pretty sure there will only be 300,000 copies made -- and I am pretty sure I will eat entire humans to get one. :D

    So I have this mad idea.

    No, no -- pseudoleather is made from pseudonatural kittens. :D

    Manifest Destiny -- GAME thread (Chapter One: The Man who Would Not Hang)

    SCENE- Camera CUTS to frame behind the bartender as PIERRE speaks, PIERRE framed in shot. SCENE- Camera CUTS to shot at the end of the bar, with SANTIAGO and CO. in frame, including the bartender. The bartender absently slides PIERRE a whiskey and SANTIAGO a burbon as he speaks. BARTENDER...

    Manifest Destiny -- GAME thread (Chapter One: The Man who Would Not Hang)

    SCENE- Interior shot of a saloon. A man is hunched at a piano, working it's keys to produce a lively tune, and several women make their way through a sea of tables, drinks on their arms. Most of the patrons let out an audable gasp as SANTIAGO and CO. enter, as they are mostly huddled close...

    Manifest Destiny -- Weird 1840s DnD3e Idea. (FULL!)

    Argent - Thanks for the kind words. :D I typically have a rad film on while I'm doing the posts, so I get awesome scene inspirado. But, I also direct a little, so it comes from my head, as well. I gave you snotty little bastards 100xp for posting and because I'm nice. It's here in case you miss...

    Manifest Destiny -- GAME thread (Chapter One: The Man who Would Not Hang)

    SCENE- Still an overhead shot. From HONG gently flows a torrent of wavering, multicolored energy, setting bits of the BEAR's fur aflame. At this, the BEAR stops, and sits on his haunches. SCENE- Camera PANS around the group, as FATHER MCKINNEY shouts at the fleeing townsfolk, NICHOLAS walks...
