Some fun watching:

And they won't get off my lawn.

Gotta take issue with that. What couldn't he take anymore? It wasn't soldiering - not a career NCO like himself. You heard what was going on in the background. He couldn't take the atrocities anymore. That's not a weak, failed soldier - that's a succeeding human being. That said, Luthen is still...

Something appears to have changed on the site. And I doubt I'm the only person encountering this issue. But I know I'm on Morrus's ignore list. But prior to this afternoon, I was still able to see the threads he created - because that's apparently how the ignore feature worked. People you ignore...

My patience with a thread varies from topic to topic and from poster to poster. I'd find it hard to really give it specific numbers.

Yeah, Marvel is based in midtown Manhattan and often featured a bunch of New Yorkers as their talent. It was a lot easier writing about the places and people nearby than about pretty much anywhere else. And for a long time that was a real contrast with their DC rivals whose famous cities were...

It's a tricky question because people can be radicalized on their own (and then pass it on to their own kids) without either getting it directly from a parent or that parent being absent. That said, there are sources that have defended Bob, Sr. including his partner at Adventure Games...

Got a little extra money from work so I splurged and finally got the big Masks of Nyarlathotep hard cover boxed set. I was on my last couple days of an Amazon Prime trial account so I checked the price. It was just over $100, which I thought was odd since it had been in the $90s just a couple of...

Do players really care about this, in your experience? Should they?

OK, I think I see what you're getting at here. I think Reynard's kind of getting at Daily and Maintain Spell being relatively clear and concise to someone not steeped in the game's rules, while Elven Upbringing and Aura of Divine Authority have no clear meaning to an outsider observer. However...

I can see where you're coming from. I also like the STAT + SKILL approach, at least for some games like D&D. It represents both the inherent talent as well as learned skill. But I also like the Call of Cthulhu/BRP method of a rating that is a bit ambiguous in that regard. (y) I think that's a...

That's not the EU I remember. Han's and Leia's marriage is stressed with her grappling with politics and him running about the universe. Their family life is a shambles with one kid going dark side (becoming an influence for the story of Ben Solo/Kylo Ren) and one (the one named after his...

I'm actually content with that origin. One thing I really enjoyed about the Andor stories is the relative lack of Jedi and Jedi legacy. It's about "normal" people or at least more normal people than the force users who dominate too much of the Star Wars movie landscape. Yeah, the ISB risking...

Brian Blume's business acumen and reputation as a businessman have been questioned. I don't recall anyone questioning his personal credibility. In fact, I thought it was clear from the podcast that most people considered Brian a decent guy who just wanted to game.

In at least one case I'm definitely ignoring the right person. :rolleyes:

I used to do more along the lines of "an onyx and two opals" without the valuation, but it's just easier to tell them the value rather than have them make an appraisal roll (solution from earlier editions) or have to take them to a jeweler for an appraisal. Then they can keep track of their own...

I'd probably add Top Secret. Fame and Fortune points. Megagame resources for PC success/survival.

I was there. I had a copy. But did nobody read the blurb on the back of it? "The common theme of this dungeon is that no joke is so old, no pun so bad, and no schtick is so obvious it can't be used to confuse and trip up PCs!" Doesn't sound like the classic dungeon to me - not even an homage to...

I agree that it's a stretch to call it WG7 malice, but I also think there was more to it than just grabbing any old campaign setting as in Mike's reply. Given the obsession people have over stories of the original Castle Greyhawk dungeon stories, I think there was some teasing of people affected...

Just finished watching Andor. Wooo, that was some ending. Absolutely NOT disappointed.
