Deep breaths, old chum :) While I agree with you completely, you might try to be less confrontational in your posts. Even when you're objectively, absolutely, my-hand-to-deity-of-choice right. Whur'd my hand go?

Their rules are fine to me; their niche(s) aren't. So... eh. Not really :) But definitely to each their own.

Complete, unfounded speculation: The switchover from "I pick new powers" to "I improve old powers" is the heroic/paragon switchover. This means people will have about 12 powers, maybe 15 or 20 depending on speed of acquisition, split between at will, daily, and per-encounter, which seems large...

Ceci n'est pas une post.

I've seen Necromancer as Arcane Leader a few times now, but I think it's fan speculation. I think it's pretty good fan speculation, mind you! ;)

Maybe. But what I hear from this argument -- not all arguments, just this specific one -- is that D&D was more fun when we were young and (more) innocent, and hadn't yet already played it. Fair cop. Has nothing to do with a new edition though :)

For the technologically minded among you -- Firefox 3 on a mac hangs like a thing which hangs incredibly when running both a BIG spreadsheet with updates and a group chat. Also, opening twelve EN World tabs might not have helped. I couldn't edit the spreadsheet directly; the keybindings...

(I used a python script to roll dice, too.) :)

I was a player. Congrats for reading the whole thing -- we had a lot of fun playing :) I usually DM, so my take on how-it-was-to-play-4e is tinged by how-it-was-to-play-D&D-as-a-player-at-all. It was a lot of fun. I felt like the nonwizard characters didn't have enough noncombat powers-- which...

Thank you very much. This means a lot.

Thank you, Gary, for everything. You will be missed. I kind of feel like EN World should... do something. Some grand, stupid gesture -- like a 1000 gp gem for Ernie or something.

It's cool if he's late to the party, right? :) My worry is that the bard will be awesome, but someone will stand up and say "OMG, look at that 'bard'! That is no 'bard'! That is a minstrelly-singy-person! I demand a real bard! 4e killed my baby!" And then I will have to listen to them or add...

I would like to hear the good things for twice, plz. We hacked together a homebrew adventure-and-playtest and had a fantastic time.

Lumpy pillows and truly heinous bedbugs.

This. Though even with this, you bounce back from death too quickly -- I suggest removing death tokens also eats surges.

It begins. Warlock, warlord... I quite enjoyed the rouge [sic], but the Paladin was actually my favorite. Might have been the personality I gave the little guy -- Napoleon Complex? :)

I, too, don't like to mark temporary state on my character sheet. I don't even like to add equipment there, for fear that I'll just swap out that length of rope for boots of levitation as soon as I'm done bludgeoning that horrifying monster behind the very next door. My plan for 4e is a...

Well, if I must! :D

Exactly. You don't understand how badass Cohen's Silver Horde is, do you? :)

Maybe some of us should switch back, to maintain The Balance? I mean, not me, I'm looking forward to 4e too much, but someone else? I suppose I could switch sides right up until it comes out, but that seems hollow. To your favorite game of choice, no matter its edition, a toast.
