    Log-in time limit

    Most definately it is. As I said, soon as I can get some plastic (ie: Credit Card) and set up a Paypal account, I'm going to join the 'membership' or whatever it's called. And yes, I do have Notepad on this machine, but it strikes me as a bit odd that I should have to use it to write-up...

    Vanishing page numbers

    I'm not alone! I'd only just noticed that myself tonight (or this morning?). I'd thought mabye it was a new 'feature' of the Story Hour thread, as that was the only forum to show up that way, so far at least. And I think it's still just a hallucination. I believe it's not just 'seeing what...

    Log-in time limit

    What exactaly is the time limit between 'clicks' while on the boards? I've been having more and more trouble lately with 'lost' replies due to log-in time-outs. I bring this up because it's really rather irritating to work on a(n occationaly long-winded) reply, going over it again to see if...

    Am I loosing my Marbles?

    Last night, at about this same time (ie: around 1-2am'ish CST) I replied twice, I'll get to that in a sec, to a thread that had someone asking about a 'scene' from the old Gord the Rogue novels. I go to see if anyone else had replied today, only to discover that the thread was apparently gone...

    The Time of Troubles, please elaborate...

    Augh!! Hit "V" instead of "C" when trying to copy the post so I wouldn't 'loose' it in case my sign-in expired! That time-limit realy should be extended, not all of have word processor software or the desire to type all posts up in them before hand. Let's try this again, in brief. You're...

    (OT)A note on the User Limit

    Me too... I'm with RangerWickett, I'd like to know the basics of what's needed to keep this madhouse functioning lag-free (or close), and of course the bottom line on what it'd cost for this dream machine. I may soon be able to contribute to the boards, as I've wanted to do for a while now...

    New Feat Notion

    If I'm not totaly misremembering the text it states (somewhere) that you can't actually use the V component while Polymorphed into a Parrot, nor can you use S while in the shape of a Monkey/Chimp. Something about it being different enough in how it works for you to be too unfamiliar with it for...

    Kalamar product review: Harvest of Darkness

    Semi-Related When did you win this module? IE: How long from your being asked for a 'snail mail' address until the time you had it in your hands? I ask because I 'won' the right to review Quest for the Unknown nearly a month ago, yet I've not recieved the module. I was just wondering if I'm...

    New Feat Notion

    Dangit! Well that's what I get for only having Tome and Blood I guess. I knew that was too usefull sounding a Feat to go unused for long. Since it's in Masters of the Wild is it only for use if you are a Druid and can Wildshape, or will it work with any metheod of shape changing? I suppose...

    New Feat Notion

    I can't realy call it an idea, it's not that well developed, yet. That's where I'm hoping you (the readers) could help. Description: This feat represents the time spent by a caster in mastering the variations in casting spells while wearing alternate shapes, forms with the potential for at...

    The funniest encounter or moment in your campaign

    Champions: I once managed to 'kill' a Champions campaign, with the help of the rest of the group of course. Suffering from a near total lack of imagination at the time I came up with a Captain America rip-off Super-Cop called "Steve", he just carried an enormous sidearm instead of that 'wussy'...

    9th Level Spell Choices

    My 2cp I'll go with Shapechange as my 'vote' for 1st 9th level spell. I'll also agree with James McMurray's notion of taking Wish, just as the penultimate fall-back spell, and primarily using the 9th level slots for meta-magicing lower level spells. As I understand it, from reading the...

    Hydras overpowered?

    Nit Picking Don't have my MM handy, but is that CR 14 what's listed for the 'basic model' of Hydra? If so you should be modifing it to reflect it's added abilities. Upon further thought though it doesn't seem that CR 14 would be too powerful for it's HP and abilities. Given a 4-character...

    can wands be recharged?

    If I only had a memory... I know I've read something, somewhere, about 'repairing' magical items. If I'm not totaly off it costs 1/2 the 'new' cost of said item. I think the rational behind this rule was based on recycling/reusing the materials/magic in the item you have, thus halving the...

    Mastering another Spellbook (FR)

    Found it Magic of Faerun: p. 173 Mastering a Foreign Spellbook And personally, I'd use it as on 'big' spellbooks instead of smaller ones, time permitting. This way I'd have, with minimal gold cost, a 'spare' set of spellbooks for traveling. Now I don't have to fret about either loosing my...

    cost of spells

    The rule you're looking for, about calculating the cost of 'buying' a spell from a mage/cleric, is in the DMG. I don't have it handy or I'd give you page numbers 'n what-not. I do know that a 6th level spell, if using the 'straight from the book' price, is somewhere between 1500 and 2000gp...

    HackMaster GM Shield - You GOTTA See This!

    Now this is what a Screen was meant to be like! I do believe, when money permits, I may actually have to break down 'n pick up Hackmaster after-all. Is it true, the rumor that the Mk II if this beast will have an outter shell composed of Kevlar fibers? This would be of great comfort to those...

    Centaur Paladin and Special Mount

    Unable to decide... I don't know which to offer as advice: A) for RW to keep up the 'good work', thus keeping us all on our toes and entertained; or B) RW should switch to decaf before his head explodes, thus depriving us of... um... Ok, so A it is then! ;) :p :D Hatchling Dragon

    PAGING ALL MERCHANTS! How do you protect your wares? (This ain't Baldur's Gate!)

    A couple more ideas Grimling guards. I'm sure there are some that could be trusted enough to do guard duty, and being Invisible won't help a bit. Daily Castings of various Extended protective magics would keep the costs down, and help explain how some magic 'shops' keep thier financial heads...

    Question about Wizards spells

    Magic of Faerun p.173: Mastering a Foriegn Spellbook is the rule section you're looking for. I don't think our poor unfortunate subterrainian Wizard friend has the (10 + # of spells in book + '# of highest lvl spell in book') days to be trying to 'Master' those other books. Now, if one of...
