    What do you consider yourself best/worst at?

    Best: telling the story, pulling the players in making them fear, hate, love or respect whatever the plot is turned towards. At setting backgrounds, and plots. I am a story teller, that is all. Worst: would have to be that I sometimes use my own rules, basic logic...I step away from the game...

    Stupidest things PCs/DMs have done

    sending a letter to the cleric which you were comming to kill, then, once you got there as the thief, you drew you offered the cleric a choice "by my sword" showing it to the cleric, in his church, armed with a few guards, countless witnesses, and other servants, "or this" showing him a cup of...

    How offten are you killing your players is the question? there are countless ways to whoop-on players, make the combat dangerous and gritty without killing them every other game.

    does CN get a bad rap?

    I just get's played wrong, CN doesn't mean your evil, it means that you may go from good to acting as if you dont care, that you dont want to get involved from time to time. Netural people worry about themselves, the Chaos allows them to shift into action, but not to evil. Your actions shouldn...

    D&D changes every 5 levels by design...

    1-5 are some times to rough for first time players, the fact that death is easy to catch is hard to grasp. 6-10, in a world where maybe, of a like ours, a 3bill popoulation, maybe 1mill exisit at or near this level, your pretty big and powerful. We always counted your level into the...

    Ok here we go. First, I have to say that I've just stopped laughing my ass off, some of your stories were great, and like most of you, as DM that's DM'd most of the games that I've played, and just finished a game that ran 3yrs with players going from 1st to some in the mid 20's, I know alot...

    Worst Stat Rolls You Have Seen

    well.... as to the low stats, I don't think its so bad to play a game where players have lower stats than the normal 15's and 18's, but that's another subject. Ok, back to what you were saying. I have seen the worst roll every done. Epic moment, hero, the games main character *because, if...

    Tremorsense vs. invisibility

    Only sometimes If their moving, then the tremorsense makes it so that they are seen, but if still, then there are no tremors, therefore, they cant be seen. Blindsight I would also rule as a form of tremorsense based on disturbances in the air,so, for those with higher senses then others would...

    A question about Paladins and killing.

    Now, I've dealt with that before First thing, how devoute is your character. Just cause you serve the church, doesn't mean that you arn't without your own moral compass. If you are a zelot, then you should kill the trolls no matter what age they are. They arn't animals, they are born evil "if...

    How many of you came close to selling off your stuff?

    once it was when I first lost the group I was playing with...but I still like to look at the books and use them when needing sats, or creative sources for writing. Glad now that I didn't, got another group now and all those books would have been hard to find again.

    Low Level Bad Guy with a High Level Scroll

    This is what I would do You obviously want to use that scroll, but not to sure if its to rough for the players. And there seems to be an inssue if the cleric should be able to cast it at all anywas. So, the Dc19 sounds a bit rough, and you shouldn't use spells that will just up and smoke your...

    D&D 3.x - Is It Too Easy To Hit Things?

    I agree At a certain level, the enemy, no matter what the player is, is not that hard to hit. One must remember that the player is adding a D20 to whatever his attack is, not counting whatother modifers that are already stacked *spells, feats, w/e* So, once a player is able to nat hit with...

    How do you rule on invisible weapons?

    Depends. If the player is holding an invisible weapon, and fighting standard foe for that level, than that foe should beabel to tell, just by where the player is holding the weapon, just where that weapon's reach is, and afte the first hit, what it is. However, if that weapon is a throwing...

    Harry Potter: Sorcerer or Wizard?

    Neither Since he could be either, he's neither. And, I've never liked how magic is so easy...and almost so mundane considering how everyone has its, and uses it without much effort, problems or serious consiquences. In one of the movie, Hermyne, uses a watch that bends time...hello...
