    The Best Team Showdown!

    ha. thats FUNNY. As for the rules of the thread. having a limit on the number of team members is weak. The thing that makes the Avengers, the Justice League, the Defenders, and most importantly, the Legion of Super-Heroes great is their large, rotating casts. I also don't like the idea of...

    The Great Sidekick Showdown! Nominate Here

    i was having this argument with my gf last night. I just don't think Vader is a sidekick. And its not just because he is more (in)famous as a bad guy. A "sidekick" has a feel to him. A sidekick can be heroic, or villianous but cant run the show. Sure they might eventually evolve and grow into...

    Eberron - things to watch out for?

    I do believe that frankthedm was specifically asking wycen to tell him what happened in wycens game and not looking for an offical answer. That's how I read his question. And on that note, I disagree with Wycen, I think a DM SHOULD be willing to answer one or more of the secrets of Eberron if...

    Serenity - the Comic Book (Spolers for issues 1 and 2)

    I think he was asking why BOOK has a lesser role in the movie, not Ron Glass. In issue #2 of the comic book, Mal and Book have words. As I stated in my original post, Book even punches Mal. (status quo at beginning of movie spoiler) Presumably this will lead up to Book leaving the ship. As...

    16. Ron Weasley (Harry Potter) You're poor, your stuff is all hand-me-downs, and you're not the brightest tool in the shed. But at least you have friends, right? But when one of your best friends is the most famous wizard in the history of the wizarding world, the other is a super-smart know...

    The Great Hero Showdown (First Round Voting Results Up!)

    who's being mean? Just because some people that I "hang out" with do something that I think is dumb, does not mean I'm being mean. Imagine we were all sitting around playing d&d and eating junk food, and then one of us says "I think that Bea Arthur is hot" and then someone else says "Eww...

    The Great Sidekick Showdown! Nominate Here

    Comments: Please please please make people vote for the PERSON, not the costume. Meaning that Tim Drake, Dick Grayson, Jason Todd and Carrie Kelley will all be nominated seperately instead of just Robin. Since you specified which Robin, I will assume this is the case. And, um...is JAck Burton a...

    The Great Hero Showdown (First Round Voting Results Up!)

    well that would be counter-productive. there are still heroes on this list worth voting for, theres just lots that arent. It makes more sense to vote to backup my opinion.

    Great Villain Showdown: The Final Match! [The Winner is..]

    DARTH VADER ? I have no idea what is going on. Some people hate the prequels so much, they are completely devaluing the effect that the original trilogy has on all (most?) of us. Others are saying the Vader epitomizes cool villain , but giving the nod to Joker anyway. And the last group are...

    Would/Do You Wear A D&D T-shirt In Public?

    But thats the mistake. "Regular clothes" = mostly a neutral reaction. Might turn off people who assume you're too straight-laced or boring, might attract someone who think youre stylish and expects a certain kind of guy to go with that. "Geek clothes" = turn off to people who wouldn't want to...
