For example, you might suspect your player is also a GM if he -writes 13 700 word character background for you. Like I just did... The DM said everyone who writes a background for their character gets 350XP. I do know for a fact that a one-page description would have sufficed. So I got around...

I'm not looking for books, but congratulations on the soon-to-be happy occasion!

I understand all of the points you make, and I do agree if that is what's actually going on, I just kind of feel that sometimes they are used as excuses (tiredness/injuries/etc) if the player doesn't feel he wants to play after the season. But I can't really blame them, I doubt anyone would even...

After seeing the previous post, I am practically forced to now post that I'm currently reading Wizard and Glass by S. King.

I've no idea how many of you over here are into hockey or know the world ch'ships are on again, but I felt there was a rather good article on the IIHF web page I'd like to share and receive comments on: Saying no to your country I personally kind of understand if someone doesn't feel compelled...

ppaladin beat me to it :) the song immediately started playing in my head when I saw the topic. I'd also like to mention that if I heard someone over here describing metal music as a guilty pleasure, I'd be speechless, since metal is easily one of the most popular forms of music here.

Reckless - enemies get +2 to hit you with their opportunity attacks.

I see no reason for swords-only... Maces and hammers come off easily as Holy Weapons. I don't see any other reasons for banning other types except for setting reasons.

A medal you shall receive nevertheless, albeit not a physical one. :) And now that you mention it, I might've read where ka had been taken from, a foreword perhaps, but clearly if I have, I had also forgot about it. Thank you, for I am now one word wiser.

Just recently I heard of a session where the party was saved by a lucky shot with an arrow that practically turned the tide of the battle, since it slaid a particulary tough enemy. I don't remember what particular monster it was, but the hit was a critical I guess. I started thinking about how...

Ah, okay, thanks for the info!

They weren't kidding about the sig, the combat sheet looked quite handy. Bookmarked, and will print once I get to abuse a printer.

Hit Points is a soundly established name that has gone a long way, so I don't really see a reason to change it just for the sake of change. If and when I come across other names in other systems, fine, I have no trouble, sometimes the names do give a different feel to the game, but usually if...

I've noticed that if my players feel they are in a pinch, they might slip into meta-gaming a bit, and were I to use these kinds of descriptions, I'd need to wary that my players won't mix damage reduction with regeneration. Of course, there's nothing wrong with them making a few good blows...

A single pencil.

I'm using wikispaces dot com at the moment. For free, it offers 2GB of space. It's good enough for me, because I just mostly use it for textual descriptions. But if you use loads of high quality pictures, it might not be enough.

Voted for Fighter, because of the sheer simplistic joy of RPing your basic human fighter. That's where everything started.

I so like the sound of that. I was once was asked if I'd like to join a game my friend's friend was DMing (the game is still going on). I heard he was a pretty decent at it, but had a tendency to play D&D as a pretty much as a simple dungeon crawl, which I hear was not the case with other...

Oh man, I didn't know Playmaker was back and improved... I just know how this is going to end, I'm going to take a "brief glance" at it and the next thing I know, It's Monday. Yeah, I'll probably have to hop on the wagon and say Reading enworld. More often than not I just lurk around and read...
