    You know you game too much when...

    This is sort of a related category: You know you use IRC too much when you say "Away from keyboard." instead of, "I'm going to go read." Yes, I actually said that outloud to my roommate as I walked out of the computer room.

    Tongue Peircing

    Not to steal the thread, but I've been considering having the very corners of my upper lip pieced ala Kakihara from Koroshiya 1. Any thoughts/advice?

    Tongue Peircing

    I believe milk contains bacteria that would be harmful when exposed to a fresh tongue piercing. Someone please correct me if I am wrong though.

    Millions donated to help save Enterprise

    Considering the thread of argument seems to be about the three million dollar contribution by certain parties, I'll point out that they said that Star Trek was one of the reasons they were inspired to become pilots/whatever. I think this was stated on one of the sites doing the campaigning...

    A stick in the mud, a dinosaur?

    I managed to find a matching set of the Fafhrd and the Grey Mouser books, in damn fine condition on eBay. They were $15 shipped. The Elric books are rather easy to find, not sure about Vance, never read any of his books (though I imagine I will).

    Parental advice needed

    This is basically what I've known of the issue for quite a while.

    Millions donated to help save Enterprise

    I wouldn't call it a bribe. If fans do manage to raise the required money, they'd be paying the wages of everyone working on the show. Also, again I must adress the fallacy some of you are relying on. You say, "Why spend this on a show when you could donate it to charity, save the children BLAH...

    Millions donated to help save Enterprise

    Guess you've never seen that episode of Dilbert? If you think that everyone should donate to charities rather than spend money on material goods, then they should do so with *all* material goods, not just one, or else they'd become hypocritical. It gets ridiculous shortly after that.

    Why, oh why, must history repeat itself?

    I remember when I was in high school. It was a small town, mostly filled with small town types. I had moved from a large city. Not long after I started attending, the school made a huge fuss about those bracelets with the spikes. They banned them on the premise that they could be used as...

    Zombie Story gets student thrown in jail

    The threat of the undead in our post-modern society is VERY REAL. Even now, the undead could be infesting YOUR child's school. Watch those janitors cafefully ladies and gentlemen, they're out there. I'm fairly sure it's safe to assume that they know that a story about ZOMBIES is *ahem* NOT...

    Gender and Reproduction in Fantasy races

    I don't think it was particularly the mention of gnomes. I think it's the talk of Smurfs that creeps people out.

    race & feat combos that destroy my campaigns melee combat.

    I wouldn't have allowed it. Then again, I'm fairly oldschool in my DMing. The other option you have, since he's pseudo (I say pseudo since he could have picked better combos) min/maxing is to simply min/max the crap out of your NPCs. Every cheap trick in the book, anything you could think of...

    BlackDirge can you make a scary flumph?

    Should have given it a Ring of Chameleon. In two levels of Assassin, it will be able to hide in plain sight.

    Bragging Rights!

    Awesome :D Congrats Gary!

    race & feat combos that destroy my campaigns melee combat.

    You should probably increase the difficulty of your encounters, considering you let this player arrange his character to have godlike ability scores.

    Laptop CPU's - AMD Athlon, Celeron, Pentium M, or P4?

    Pentium M and Celeron M are *not* the same. The P-M is a third generation chip, and combines features of P4 and PIII. Celerons = NO. Big time waste of money there. As far as Centrino is concerned, it's just a fancy name for having a processor and wireless that meet certain specs. Most of them...

    [Help!] Buying a new Desktop

    Falcon Northwest is the only company I'd willingly substitute a custom build comptuer for.

    D20 Vaporware

    I was looking forward to Master Tools. Dundjinni and E-Tools are nice, but not nearly the same.

    Campaign Ended by... Bad Dice Rolls.

    Computer generated random numbers are actually *less* random. Depending on who made the program. Your typical seed, however, is *much* less random than a roll of the dice.
