    Excellent game, Vince. Good old fashioned dungeon crawl, lots of loot and a neat quest! I can't wait for the next one. One has to wonder, though, is Achis moving toward greatness as a leader of warriors? :)

    Bold Confessions of a Nerd-Party Candidate

    There will always be satire. I think it is just appearing in places other than cinema right now. John Stewart, Stephen Colbert, Bill Maher are just a few guys out there doing great satire. Really, in its prime, The Simpsons was great satire too. One show (to go off on a tangent) that...

    Bold Confessions of a Nerd-Party Candidate

    Having our beliefs mocked is very unsettling. The thing we must explore is why it is unsettling! What are we clinging to so vehemently? The nature of belief is, for all intents and purposes, delusion. The Universe is not concerned or affected by our beliefs, therefore, why should we be so...

    4E Barbarian and Druid

    I think that the feeling comes largely from the fact that we have experienced three different versions of the game and have seen the improvements. Beyond some balance issues, 3.0/3.5 is still a good system. I doubt that 4E really offers anything outstanding by way of creating a better system...

    Bold Confessions of a Nerd-Party Candidate

    You are certainly more lucid here in your thoughts, and you are also more objective in your opinions. This is good. However, your assertion that humor should be put on hold during elections is something with which I must take issue. Humor is humor many times (perhaps all times) because it is...

    Bold Confessions of a Nerd-Party Candidate

    Of course! Men of intelligence are very often men of cutting wit and humor. It is precisely because they are intelligent that they can see the funny side of many issues. Groucho Marx, Woody Allen, H. L. Mencken, Mark Twain... The list goes on and on. The greatest satirists were men of keen...

    If you are so interested in people's associations, then perhaps you should read this: http://alaskareport.com/news98/x61673_hypocrisy_9382223.htm If you read the article, perhaps it will become clear that these things are engineered solely for your distraction and nothing more. It is time...

    A public service massage

    And in reference to your supposed "mistakes" as fed to you by Fox News, I have heard the same facts explained in different ways by the liberal press. So, it really comes down, once more, in what you choose to believe. I choose to believe that these interpretations on the part of the media are...

    A public service massage

    Just because we may have had connections with someone bad early in our lives doesn't mean we are somehow unfit for office. The assertion assumes that people don't learn from their mistakes. And if we are really going to split hairs, let's not forget that our founding fathers were also, at...

    Game time will be at 4pm this Saturday, due to other engagements. We will probably play until 8 or 9 or later if people can do it... Hope to see everyone here at my house. Mark

    The answer, I believe, lies in women's mostly non-confrontational attitudes. They avoid direct confrontation at all costs as a general rule. I think the psychology of this goes far deeper than I want to go into on a forum, but I think it has mostly to do with the sense many women have (whether...

    You mean the Saturday we actually get together here and role play? No thanks! I would much rather play with my friends with characters I have been playing with a DM that has written books and has been running games since he was twelve. ;)

    Anti-Intellectualism

    Of course there is room for both in the Presidency. I'm sorry, but I would have a hard time understanding a guy who could be that intellectual all the time. Does he have to be Joe Six Pack? No. But, he could be intellectual and still enjoy a pint of beer and a dick joke. Obama has displayed a...
