    Hey Man; it's not worth it...

    Lethal Weapon, Bad Boys, and with little variation about half a dozen other cop movies. It's a stupid cliche that you think they would have got tired of by now. But no. I've edited the original post to make it a little clearer, and to make it a little more RPG relevant... Essentially - What are...

    Hey Man; it's not worth it...

    Hey everyone, I've been writing a cop/buddy film and have almost finished - this is how I am thinking of ending it. Our hero stands over the villain with his gun pointed squarely at him. The villain, a loathsome and murderous maniac who has killed hundreds (including the hero's mother...

    What ever happened to Role Playing?

    Hmmm... It's a film quote. Meant humourously. Self depracatory in a kind of way... No snarkyness intended, but point taken.

    What ever happened to Role Playing?

    You think you're too cool for school. Well, I got news for you Walter Cronkite.... You aren't. :rolleyes:

    [OT] ROFL? LMAO? We need new Acronyms, dammit!!

    Guys, we need some new acronyms for the MB's. At first it seemed some people really liked my sense of humour. "Rolling On the Floor Laughing?" they said, and "Laughing My Arse off!". My goodness I thought, I must have struck a nerve there. But then I saw other posts; posts that were fairly...

    [OT] To All Who Know Me ... Sad News

    Good luck Angelsboi, Our thoughts are with you. And lets face it, how can you go wrong when you have the support of such beings as "Cthulu's Librarian","Morbidity" and "Darkness!" You'll be able to say to your doctor "It's okay Doc, I'm never without the support of the Hand Of Evil, and the...

    (OT) Dream Dinner Party

    Not necessarily. It tells me a lot about you that you value your friends and family so highly. :) It just helps when they're famous because everyone knows who you are talking about. Also, the reason I chose 'famous' people was because they (particularly the first five or six) are genuine...

    (OT) Dream Dinner Party

    Hi everyone! This is is one of those "this is who I am... who are you?" sort of posts - I know it's a long one, but bear with me... Imagine that you are having a dinner party, and all you have to do is invite ten guests. They can be anyone you like, as long as you follow these criteria: 1)...

    Disturbed Individual With Sword(OT)

    It is terrible what happened, regardless of what happened. Don't think that I lack symathy for the victims and their families. And if the Police officers were under attack, then I won't second guess their actions. I guess I just wondering how it got to to that point, and we don't have that...

    Disturbed Individual With Sword(OT)

    That's very sad... So what actually happened? I don't know the facts here, but my first reaction when reading the article was "He had a sword, and the cops had guns. Couldn't they have "shot and wounded" him? Shot and incapacitated him? Instead was "shot and killed". I only mention this...

    "Yes, you can" Or "No you can't"

    It might well, depending the answer I am looking for. Wuss! ;) Seriously though - I do want a black or white response, because I believe that there is something to be obtained for such an answer. It comes from my experiences as an improvisor - Some improvisors always seem to make positive...

    "Yes, you can" Or "No you can't"

    "Yes, you can" Or "No you can't"

    Yes, but what about you... No, It doesn't depend on any of that. Don't get too caught up in the example - I want to know about your campaign - what you will say when the players are trying weird stuff. I'm not interested in hearing the strict rules interpretations - I know the rules. I want...

    "Yes, you can" Or "No you can't"

    So If you let them try... So, are you guys actually letting them try, or are you making the mods so prohibitive that you may as well be saying no. Essentially, are you taking on board their offer? Or are the consequences pre-determined "unless they roll a twenty." For instance, what if a...

    "Yes, you can" Or "No you can't"

    Some GM's are hardball, and others self admitted easybeats. There are GM's who are stickler's for the rules, and others who allow the the players to get away with blue murder. I've had a fair amount of experience in alternative sytems where the default position to the request "Can I do this" is...

    Point-buy or rolling? Your preference and why?

    4d6 best three for me As a GM I don't care - the player's can do what they want. As a player it's 4d6 best three for me. It's the tradition of it - I wouldn't feel like I was playing Dungeons and Dragons if I wasn't rolling up my characters. And if I roll something really crap my GMs will...

    Double post That said the effects of aging have so far turned me into a slevering doubleposting imbecile.

    Running old PCs

    Yes It's funny that you should ask that today. One of my players just turned 35. I was looking up the Player's handbook half an hour ago to see what the effects would be. He is a thirteenth level priest, so his Wisdom should soon be 20. We have been playing this campaign on and off for ten...

    Okay, that's it, I've had enough. Adventurers, STAND UP FOR YOURSELVES!!

    Bear with me, but... Jeez, it's been a while since I've had an offer like that!
