An IQ test typically tests 3 forms of intelligence, visual-perceptive, logical-mathematical, and language. The last is usually weighted the heaviest because it supposedly has the highest correllation, but this tends to come under a lot of fire. Most of these language tests don't include the...

That seems like a rather insulting way of looking at Buddhism and Taoism.

That's odd, were you trolling the test or something? :-p Assuming English is your first language, of course. You can study for these things, I did some mental workouts for a few months and managed to rate a 178 on a purely logic-based test. Of course, logic is my specialty so that isn't...

I run a campaign where godless clerics are the only option available.

There are several kinds of riddles - there was a good node at everything2 that did a pretty good job of listing them and vastly improved my riddle-foo. Some riddles will contain a hidden hint - or even the answer. This can be the first or last letter of each word or sentance (don't go...

Str 14 Con 22 (18+2 racial +2 levels) Dex 14 Int 8 Wis 14 Cha 6 Feats: Toughness, Roll With It, Roll With It, Roll with It! DR 8/- at 10th level is nothing to scoff at, and it will just keep adding up. Get an armor like Studded Leather +1 with Heavy Fortification (and convince the mage to add...

Speed should double, shouldn't it? Anyway... As I have it, I only start with 1 domain, and grant an additional one as each 'class' of godhood is obtained (one at demigodhood, another at lesser, and so on...) What you may want to do, if you think they should have outsider HD, is roll the...

Similarly you might also subject the 'must recoil from a strongly presented religious symbol' to his spell resistance or something similar. Or perhaps require a certain status - a boddhistava or a bishop, for example. For sunlight, you could say it does 20d12 fire damage subject to his divine...

The Divine Array is 35, 31, 25, 24, 24, 24 IIRC In my not so humble opinion, this is kind of lame. In my own little world, I grant +32 to a main attribute, then +16 to the remaining, but you can also simulate the above by granting +17, +16, +15, +14, +13, +12 Which you might consider to be...

Why not offer to run your own game? - Asking your friends first, of course, just say you wanna try it out and so on. Don't bring your brother's style into it. It doesn't sound like you could do worse than your brother :-)

Strategy is how you prepare for the battle. Is how you fight it. Is how you get there. Is two words :-p

Yay!

What is the comperable background and education level then? Not many high school dropouts in the gamer crowd. There was a point where the average IQ of the on-line community was 133 (this was before the Web) - the number of gamers in that group was disproportional.

Ever play the original Final Fantasy for the NES :-p

Ack! I forgot you were talking about the d20 class ability, rather than the Crane Clan sword, sorry. In that case, there are several possibilities: 1: He get's the Crane's father's daisho. This would be contested by his cousins, but if there is no other alternative, it could pass to him if...

Alright. I'm not sure what the heck the DM was doing, I hope for the sake of those involved that the campaign turns out alright. Reminds me of a girl whose online alias begins with a B... In that case, I would probably talk with her one or two on one about how players are responsible for...

It is important to remember rule zero, but there are a couple of other important ones Rule -1: Be consistant Rule -2: When not being consistant, make it count. For your Crab to take the Crane daisho would be a huge story arc going far beyond simply him acquiring it - I'm sure, for example...
