    My geekiness is rubbing off!

    Thanks. I got a lot of compliments on my Reno-911 avatar of Dep. Junior, so I thought it was time to move on.

    Failed construction works of your world?

    In one kingdom in my homebrew, the capitol city was moved because they couldn't get rid of a plague that was running through the populace. Even though it was a couple of hundred years ago, they never moved it back to the original city. People still live in the old capitol, but it's in shambles...

    My geekiness is rubbing off!

    My wife has forbidden me from geek-ifying our daughter. I'm hoping it'll happen a little on its own, just from environmental factors.

    Who ELSE buys PDFs?

    I like pdfs. I'm hoping more companies will follow WotC and Green Ronin and make current titles available in pdf.

    Monthly Games

    We're at about once a month, too. Our group is kinda spread out throught the area now, so that's about all that some can handle travel back for. Plus a couple of us have kids now.

    Makin' Mail

    It takes time. Lots of it. Aside from that, pretty much everything you need you can find at a hardware store. I usually used galvanized fencing wire. I used to use 12ga mostly, but after a couple of years, my hands just couldn't take it. I moved down to 18ga and found that much easier to...

    Player's Handbook II?

    I don't think that's necessarily representative of the product's potential. It was one of the last big projects TSR put out, with bankruptcy right around the corner and in the twilight days of 2e. I think there may be some demand for compendium style products. Mongoose has produced several of...

    RPGs being linked to murder...

    So, all the people in the renaissance were satanists? :confused:

    RPGs being linked to murder...

    You know, in 15 years of gaming, I actually have yet to meet a satanist. I've met catholics, protestants, jews, muslims, agnostics, atheists, and pagans, but not a single satanist.

    Talislanta d20 edition at the printer

    And with that, Tal20 goes to the top of the wish list. :D

    Strange...Gyrspike in Races of the Wild

    For some reason, and I can't quote anything on this, I think the gyrspike is associated with Gnolls. IIRC, they're in RotW.

    No Iron MAn for Cruise...

    Mortgensen isn't someone I'd have thought of at first, but he's not a bad choice.

    DM prep time with D&D

    That's pretty close to what I've experienced, too. We typically have on 10-11 hour session per month. I spend about that much time, in 2-3 hour chunks per night, planning the week before we play. Most of it is figuring out story stuff, then some stats, and treasure planning. Actually, I'd...

    [D20 Future] What's the CR of a robot?

    I'd probably compare it to an animated object of similar size. That will at least give you somewhere to start.

    Warlords of the Accordlands: what happend?

    Ugh. December as in December '05?

    Talislanta d20 edition at the printer

    Any chance we'll see some previews, Mr. Agnew? How about an idea of how much of the magic system is preserved going to d20?

    Venture Brothers..Like it or not and why?

    The first time I saw it, I though it was the dumbest thing I'd seen on CN. I gave it another chance, though, and it's really grown on me.

    Charles Ryan on Watermarked PDFs

    I wonder if someone in a board room somewhere has a Random Business Encounter Chart. "Lets see, 2d10. (roll) 17. The chart says we should sue all fan-sites." "I think that's a second edition chart. Did you get the eratta?"

    Another RPG company with financial difficulties

    Who says it has to take over? I don't think real books will disappear in 5 years, but I do think pdfs will be a much larger part of the market by then. There is a growing segment of the market that wants them, so the publishers need to accomodate them to keep market share. Some of the bigger...

    Another RPG company with financial difficulties

    Looking into the future and seeing no changes has killed many businesses. Look at K-Mart. 15 - 20 years ago, they were certain Wal-Mart couldn't match or beat their business model and didn't take them seriously. K-Mart is only now beginning to recover. You can't just say nothing will change...
