I think that was his point. To wit, just because "SCIENCE!" says something is good, does not mean it is good in practice. I don't think he was necessarily trying to debunk the "pink is calming" scientific study. Just point out that the study may not have the same results in the real world.

Of the ones pictured, I picked red and voted that way before I realized there was an "other option." If I had stopped to think before clicking submit, I would have said "other" and noted a preference for a golden logo, maybe with a slight contrast in the dragon ampersand (silver? maybe?).

Cool. Didn't know that and didn't want to abuse the report function. Yeah, my daughters are excited, but I'm sure my wife would say that I'm far more excited.

Yeah, this is why I suggested merging the threads, because I noted the same thing in the other one. Nothing against you Dire Bare. I also highly recommend people download and watch asap.

Must spread some XP before giving them to Ratskinner again, but yes, this: : is absolutely my experience as well. I like a lot of the other systems out there, but they don't feel like D&D to me. They all seem to work for whatever game they're intended, but they don't work for me in D&D.

I like the "Somebody That I Used to Know" staging and interpretation, but I think that does sound a bit like too much Blaine. I mean, I like the character, but we've had an awful lot of Blaine-Kurt centric stories and there are other characters that deserve some focus.

What seems to drive some of these arguments is "which one is the core and which is the option?" Not that it makes your point any less valid, because that is essentially what I'm seeing, too. But it seems like those who like HP recovery* rule from 2nd Edition want that as the "core" with the 4th...

There's Mazes and Minotaurs, an OSR inspired fantasy RPG that imagines a "what-if" Greek Mythology and epic films of the 1960s were the background for D&D rather than LOTR. link There's also XCrawl, a D&D 3rd edition setting set in pseudo-modern America that uses the Roman pantheon. link

Fair enough, but they did not announce open playtesting. They did announce that they were in closed playtesting, and that open playtesting would be part of the design process, probably coming sometime in the spring. I think either you or I have grossly misunderstood what's happening. I'd lean...

In the US, this Saturday at 11 on Nickelodeon. Also, I recommend this thread and the other be merged.

Once again we get people complaining about "months" in industries where development cycles are typically measured in years. I also learned of the Pathfinder beta early on, but it was not an entirely new system created from scratch. It was a niche product marketed to a niche market using rules...

The first two episodes are now available from iTunes for free, for a limited time of course.

"B-grade" and "classic" are not mutually exclusive. Some of the best "classic" films of all time are "B-grade" at best. Godzilla, THEM, Night of the Living Dead, Invasion of the Body Snatchers, The Creature from the Black Lagoon, Dracula. Now, best/worst and good/bad are subjective, so I'll...

It's not just a class thrown together for an already extant system. It's an entirely new system that is trying to hit all the wickets of previous editions combined. So yeah, I'd say that takes quite a bit longer than two evenings.

You say this like its some sort of astronomically long time. Frankly, three months seems comically short to be complaining about. I find that each year I age, "three months" seems shorter and shorter.

Unsurprisingly, yes. As mentioned upthread, the first is worth reading even as a young adult book. The others, notsomuch.

I think, and correct me if I'm wrong, that the "Official" trailers for many movies are released at Apple Trailers and that many/most of the Youtube versions of those trailers are breaking DMCA in some fashion since they are uploaded essentially illegally. I'm not looking to start a conversation...

Good Eats remains my favorite cooking show of all time. I'm slightly annoyed that my cable still doesn't have Cooking Channel in the basic tier since FoodNetwork has seen fit to not show any cooking in the evening anymore. I believe that I have become a much better home cook (and my wife and...

I can't XP you, but as steeldragon said, I think that may have played into my decisions, unintentionally, as well. And now that you point it out, I can't unsee it.
