Arravis, I knew this was coming when I woke up this morning. 72 sleepless hours apparently left me feeling a bit Homeric, as I can see I did a little cataloguing. You're tripping over the spaces while you walk around the points though. I know most of those. With the exception of Agent...

Fundamental to D&D maybe, not to d20. d100 is as good as d20, I would just change the scale to reflect the larger numbers involved while rolling the d100 in a way that emphasized the midrange, just like I use 5d4 for d20. Does it make sense to criticize a system for not attempting to model...

*nothing to see here*

Well, I don't remember saying that. If I was drunk it's possible though. You seem to be glossing: my point isn't that I'm super cool guy and most gamers are insignificant little nerds, it's that I don't have anything in common with most people that game; that no two people necessarily have...

Re: Re Not in my D&D world. I will however entertain your explanation of how exactly deities and creatures embody good and evil and law and chaos as forces in the Forgotten Realms, if you care to give it. My problem with alignment is that it is inconsistent, along with the idea of good and...

Actually, it isn't. It isn't even a fact that relationships based on attraction last longer than arranged marriages. But 99.99% of gamers are nothing like me. At all. I very rarely go to a FLGS because the people there are generally pretty weak. I don't dismiss their existence, but they...

1. That was long 2. 11.83432%... that test is obviously flawed.

Because you would be walking around trying to fit square pegs into your circular slot. Which is not to say that you should NOT want a lover who shares your hobbies, only that limiting yourself to those that do is sort of ridiculous. It's tough on your lover if they were chosen based on a...

Hey Split. You aren't butting in at all; that's why we have these conversations out in the open, so to speak, and not over email :) . Do keep in mind though, as I can see you are relatively new to the boards, that we try not bring up political/religious topics that are likely to result in...

Yeah, I didn't buy it. Perhaps because of all the other exchanges they had in the episodes leading up to it.. "you're the only thing I've ever been sure about" and "he's in my heart" and all that. They had a lot of moments in the last few episodes. He was just being... Spike. And then that...

In a perfect system of law (consistent with the good) it would be fine. The system would be sufficient to prove guilt or exonerate of it. Look at our own system: how many alleged criminals are found not guilty, but still have their lives ruined by the fact of having been tried? How many...

But it's not good for society to prosecute innocent people. The grocer only thinks he's doing the right thing, the good thing. In reality he's wrong, and doing a bad thing. Some would say that the fact that the grocer is willing to prosecute someone he didn't actually see stealing makes his...

Not at all! I mean this in a very serious way. In the little world that is ENWorld, right and wrong are facts. Several posters, in decrying what they perceived as moral relativism in Drawmack's original rant, factually did wrong in this little ENWorld. So, I don't think they're evil, I think...

It would be pretty tough to make a funnier version than the original.

That just goes to show you.. I actually have seen a few episodes of this, but was unfortunately unintrigued. Good luck getting another season though, it sucks when shows just disappear.

I'm not much for making plans, so if I can make whatever date you guys come up with, and there happens to be a spot, and I feel like going and didn't make some wacky plans a few days before, I'll be there. The mid July dates are definitely out for me though, Warped Tour is in San Fran that...

It doesn't add a dimension, it substitutes one. It sacrifices something in gaining the fact of what is good and what is evil. Besides, alignment can be used in a world of moral relativism. Homer and Dante both give us extensive moral guidelines, which do not fit with each other but which both...

oh, oh, Swordfish! This movie seemed to come and go without a lot of play either way, but I dig it. There are a few meta elements to it, which are fun, but mostly it's just direct, and the "bad" guy kicks a lot of ass and comes out on top. But I could be wrong about it's popularity? I didn't...

Tell me more of this Big O, so that if I like it I can contribute to sequels :) . I am unenlightened in the area of cartoons. Haven't seen anything since Serial Experiments.

How so? More than any character's alignment change, I mean? If vanilla D&D appealed to me I'm sure it would ;) . My problem with a truth beyond the gods is that it doesn't make much sense to me for Paladins to be holy warriors at all. That depends on the gods in IYC though. I only meant...
