    Warcraft RPG exerpts now online.

    I'm playing through the Frozen Throne campaigns right now, and it's pretty good stuff (you guys will love the new Demon Hunter model). Any word on whether or not these plot lines are included in the CS?

    Suggestions for scary movies

    Well, it's got pretty girls anyway ;) . I did like a lot of the camera work. I'll second Lord of Illusions as a classic. I take the 'If you want something from the grave, you have to give something to the grave in return' maxim in my game from this nice movie.

    Remember "Maiden of Pain"?

    I know exactly what you mean. I toyed with the idea in my head for a week or two, had the first page written out in my head, looked at the FRCS, Magic of Faerun, Silver Marches, Faiths and Pantheons etc., but my lines of thought would all have had to be..altered..to be suitable. A serious...

    UNDERWORLD: is it just VTM meets WTA?

    Ahh, I see. A nascent Lycan... so I suppose the "mortal" really isn't a mortal. Both sides chasing him, etc. Meanwhile he has no idea what the hell is going on. I guess the R&J could work under those circumstances. We'll see how well it's executed, hopefully decently.

    (ot) It is done!

    Well, I think the central question is whether downloading a copy of The Matrix would be resisting or complying. Once you settle that, depending on how postmodern (Marxist, Hegelian, whatever) you are, you may or may not advocate resistance for the sake of progress. ;) Congrats!

    UNDERWORLD: is it just VTM meets WTA?

    Nope, that's the same old trailer. I certainly see the potential for the Romeo and Juliet thing, feuding houses and all, but from what I remember of the basic storyline the two houses are fighting over a mortal man. I'd say if Beckinsale's character goes for anybody it's him. Not likely for...

    UNDERWORLD: is it just VTM meets WTA?

    Is there a new trailer? I haven't seen anything on it that made it look Romeo and Juliet-esque. I think it is meant to capitalize on some of the WoD, but the history of the vamps and lycans is going to be a lot different obviously. These are oldschool werewolves I think, not the (mostly) good...

    Ron Weasley DIES in new Harry Potter book!!!!

    Re: Re: Re: Ron Weasley DIES in new Harry Potter book!!!! Yeah, pretty much. I don't fault you for not liking Kilborn though, I only watch him when Conan's on commercial :D .

    [OT] I'm bored! Post some of your favorite movies to rent.

    I'd say ditch Crouching Tiger, check out Fist of Legend and Fong Sai Yuk instead.

    Ron Weasley DIES in new Harry Potter book!!!!

    I don't suppose you were watching Kilborn when he pulled this gag? I was so happy, and then it was a joke, and I was so sad :( .

    Northern California Game Day (Any DMs out there?)

    Sure. Seeing as how I barely remember anything about standard d20 anyway I'm all for trying something totally new. Otherwise I'll have to print out the SRD or something as I believe my copy of the PHB is in NYC at the moment.

    I cast "Raise Dead Film"

    Queen of the Damned has been on HBO lately, so I have to add that to the list. It was pretty bad but I see it in an almost Army of Darkness like light.

    Northern California Game Day (Any DMs out there?)

    I don't think there have been any nays yet. Tarrasque Wrangler, that's a Sat., so if you were only bowing out on account of it being a Sunday, you can still probably take JDragon up on his offer.

    New Rant Posted

    Well Drawmack, I can't say that I entirely agree with you on this one, but I do 75% or so. I wouldn't say that training rules provide a way of quantifying realism (other than that, yes, they limit the variable), but a way of enforcing it. If the rule is there, the player is obliged to make the...

    Northern California Game Day (Any DMs out there?)

    August 2nd sounds good to me. I do have a nagging feeling that there's something important I have to do at some point in August, but most important things are done on weekdays, so I see no problem. We're gonna brave the ccg'ers are we? Fun.

    Sigh. I'm going to play a little game. Pretend this is your favorite band's messageboard, and that somebody said they just want a girlfriend that likes the same bands they do. *begin funny* You seem to be glossing: my point isn't that I'm super cool guy and most people who listen to this...

    Holy crap. Sorry about that. I went to fix this last night and my account died until the new verification email got to me this morning. All should be well now. Gotta run my grandmother to physical therapy. Back soon. :)

    What about modern poetry including/after Yeats, basically everything from the death of Swinburne onward? Poetry's what I do, I just carefully replicated the educations of Eliot and Pound as part of my study. For philosophy, I'm actually big on the new stuff (surprise, Searle and Davidson being...

    Gamers who want to date gamers

    I've noticed how it's been misread. I didn't do the misreading though so it's all good. I'll whittle it down for everybody: Even if you think that relationships should be based on what two people have in common, please acknowledge that a). most interests don't define who you are as a person...
