    The Mystery of The katana

    That does sound like the coolest thing ever. Can you recommend any titles?

    What Would a Pirate Do?

    "You must spread some Experience Points around before giving it to Doug McCrae again." Argh. There should be a XP limit reset after a week or something.

    Drinking and posting don't mix.

    Is the RPG hobby dying? [RPG Blog Carnival]

    I think that the internet has lowered the "survivability" bar for niche hobbies, so much so that our old perception of how many participants are necessary to sustain a hobby is skewed. Levels of interest that would previously render a hobby unsustainable are the new robust. To wit, without a...

    Your game trajectory

    Oops. Sorry. For me, I was 8 years old. The babysitter brought over Keep on the Borderlands, I died to a pit trap and was hooked. A week later his parents decided that D&D led to Satanism, so I inherited the books.:angel: That's awesome. Must be an amazing campaign ...

    Winter is coming...

    Frustratingly empty of content ... but for good reason as noted above.

    Your game trajectory

    Hoping this isn't a repeat thread. If so, please delete. ==== What was the course of your gaming interest? I'm interested in seeing how/what people went through, and what they are playing now. For my part: BECMI - Grades 3 - 4 AD&D/2e - Grades 4-6 R. Talsorian C'punk - Grades 7 - College...

    Lolth's appearance

    She showed up in the D&D animated cartoon as spider w/ human head and I remember it being sufficiently terrifying.

    Gabe is at it again

    This was done at last year's GenCon. Can anyone corroborate me? It was running in the room where the DCC tournaments were being help (with the train-motif names). Maybe it was one of the Goodman guys? Or A WereCabbage? All I know is they were moving minis on a suspended orb.

    D&D Monster Man SOUNDBOARD!

    That's awesome, but the dragonturtle didn't make any sense to me.

    Osirs.net?

    Never heard of the site, but it sounds really cool, and I'd love to use it if it returns.

    I need your advice

    2e Warhammer for sure. Fantasy, but nothing like D&D.

    Rat Bastard DM Requirements

    H.M. has the right of it. To arrange a situation where the PCs elect to plunge to their dire fate (be it doom or otherwise), leaving the players howling in agony and begging for more ... THAT earns the title of RBDM. Everything else is trivial.

    Lava Cavern of Intense Burning

    That is all sorts of sexy.

    What's the best system to use?

    This will damn me forever in the eyes of the 4e haters but ... ... reskinning 4e powers would be perfect, imo. The shift/push/pull aspects especially. You could rewrite the fluff without the players ever knowing.

    The Signs of a Good DM

    Since I can't give Umbran any more exp (there really should be a time delimiter for when new EXP can be awarded to the same person, but whatever), let me say that I agree. But this creates the interesting question around DMs that are good for one group, and DMs that are good for many groups. I...

    Mearls is the new manager of D&D

    Note that, in 4 years or less, we will be wishing Mike well again, in a round of seemingly-random WotC layoffs. :(

    Player costuming, props etc in "table top" games.

    Fun. I need to try this.
