    New and Confused Regarding GenCon

    Free events are still worth registering for. Not only will it secure a spot but it serves as a nice reminder to attend it. Last year Dead Gentlemen's The Gamers 2 was sold out and only those with tickets to the event were allowed to enter. They offered more showings, but those of us with out...

    Gencon Hotels are on sale at 2pm, and all earlier reservations were WIPED

    Yea, Wow! This was horrific. This was my first time having to book housing for the group that I go with. I wanted to have Wednesday to Saturday and by the time I got through each page to the final confirmation i had to give up Wednesday. It only took 1-2 minutes from the time I selected a...

    Gencon Hotels are on sale at 2pm, and all earlier reservations were WIPED

    NEW UPDATE!!!!! Ok, I just called the Housing Bureau and a recorded message plays...It informs that the software they use for booking hotels is DOWN and they are currently working to get it back up. So they say to continue trying but they have no idea when it will work again. I noticed once...

    Non-Boring Cleric Ideas

    That was me...I started my life of RPG's as a cleric, more like, a walking bandage. In the time since I have played a few clerics and found them to be way more capable or are now allowed to be capable of doing things other than acting as a medic. In a campaign I'm in, we have a cleric who is...

    GenCon idea

    This might not be a bad idea, it could make for an interesting event. Have tables for discussion or perhaps a build-a-thon. Build a character from these [books] and see what people make up. I know my friends and I have sometimes done this informally just for fun, build characters of the same...

    Chicago Gameday XVI planning thread - Feb 24th: Head to the sign-up thread

    I live on the Northwest side of Chicago. I could jump on the metra at Jeff Park and be there in about a half hour. I do normally drive and would be open to car pooling if people request it. Just let me know and I would be happy to arrange a pick up. Also do we have a flyer yet? I can make...

    Driving Back the Gnolls

    If the Gnolls have made a permanent residence and are being forced out, its a great idea to make it complicated. Have several parties interested in their removal or the cause of their exodus. Take advantage of Gnoll's natural abilities, and have them raid at night or have the band of heroes be...

    Hmm, I really need to invest in an Enworld account, but by using some Google-Fu I found this post: http://www.enworld.org/archive/index.php/t-141912.html The Thread was originally started by Remus Lupin. More specifically this is what your looking for I think; I can attach the files but...

    Where have all the heroes gone?

    I hear you. I have been in so many games that have the characters being only a step better than the evil they fight. However, I am currently in a Red Hand of Doom game and although we are reluctant at times, we are the heroes we should be. Our warforged Artificer needs some coaxing...

    Gaming across the US

    Chicago-land is a great area. Lots to do in general. Game wise, I had found it hard to get a game for a long time, but then I found several, and literally down the street from me! Games Plus is amazing and the En world crew around Chicago are some of the finest people around. There are many...

    Greek for 50?

    If by Greek 50 you mean, how dodeca is 12 and hexa is 6. Then 50 would be Pentaconta. or something close to that spelling. Peninda is a rough translation of 50 in Greek into the Latin alphabet. In terms of dice. A twenty sider would be a icosahedron and a fifty sider a pentacontahedron.

    A 3-year-old at Casino Royale!?

    Parents who bring their infant children to theaters expecting them to sit quietly for more than 2 hours are most likely missing a portion of their brain. I have not seen a movie on opening night in ages. I can't do it anymore, it seems that either people don't mind their kids...
