Does anyone know any good free Windows 7 Phone apps that would help a 3.5e player? I've noticed Morrus's big list of apps for iPhone or Android, but I didn't see a category for Windows 7 Phones. I've found a few die rollers, but they're not quite what I'm looking for. I have easy access to...

As a DM, I would probably rule that the character was chaotic evil only while in beast form. The beast within is a separate personality, therefore it can have a separate alignment. This may not be RAW, but I think it makes the most interesting game. Other than that, I'd agree with others who...

Note how he also says nothing about RPGs or gaming. Apologies, Blizzardblast1182, if we're making the wrong assumptions, but you really look like a spambot so far. :) Some bots increase their post count with innocuous things like this so they look like a reputable poster when they post their...

I think he was referring to:

If you're willing to pay $10 you can get a copy of Neverwinter Nights: Diamond that's guaranteed to play on Windows 7.

If you accuse someone of doing something they know is wrong, a lot of the time they will get defensive and flat out deny it. This leads to lots of bad emotions for both the accuser and the accused. People can get angry, defensive, and stressed. If you've got people with strong personalities...

Another company that finds it hard to go wrong is Blizzard. Diablo, Warcraft, Starcraft... I haven't played anything by Blizzard that I haven't loved. They've defined the RTS and MMO genres for me. I can't play an RTS without comparing it to Warcraft III or Starcraft, and I can't play an MMO...

What fba827 said is how I understand it. The "Mark all forums read" thing hasn't worked for a very long time.

Wow, I have ads disabled, and I think I still got this (or one similar). I heard the "Congratulations, you won!" audio, and I had no other windows open that normally come with ads. Edit: It just happened again, and EN World was the only browser tab I had open. I cannot tell where the ad is...

Aww, I loved the Redwall books. RIP Mr. Jacques. I feel like calling them children's books is a bit inaccurate, considering how gory they could be. Those definitely fell in the "young adult" category.

I've tried that with Chrome, and it doesn't work well. It may show up twice in the volume control, but muting one doesn't necessarily mute just that one tab. However, you could use two browsers (like IE and Chrome, or Firefox and Opera), one for work stuff and one for non-work stuff and mute...

Oh, yes, that gag has already been brought up in our group. By my husband. :)

We're doing the same thing in my group at the moment, except when we DM, our PC goes off and does something else. Even though technically it's the same character, I can't imagine playing my PC the same way in a game I'm DMing as I do in a game where someone else is DMing. I think about the...

You're supposed to act like your character, but not necessarily feel like your character feels. There have been lots of times where my character has been really pissed off but I couldn't have been happier. I love setting up situations where my character hates another PC or something they do...

As I posted above, I'm starting to think that I, myself, won't be able to get past that part. :p What seemed okay in my head sounded absolutely awful out loud. I'm reminding myself of the time I jokingly told my husband that I had a Japanese ex named "Yu". Now whenever I tell him "I love you"...

Are you looking forward to it, or is the character looking forward to it? There's a difference. If you are looking forward to it then that's a warning sign.

Having a PC while you DM will never feel like having a "real" PC. At least, it shouldn't. You know what's coming, so there's no mystery. Combat is like playing chess with yourself. Getting new gear and powers doesn't quite feel the same because you're giving it to yourself. So if you want...

Good start. I'll have to mull some of those over. Note that the name need not be Asian (though they do seem to have a lot of one-sylable names to borrow).

I voiced this name idea to one of my potential players, and as I said it out loud it struck me that it was not a good name after all. I think the bit that really turned me off was when I called them the Xi people, which came out sounding like "she-people". All of a sudden I was imagining all...
