    This Weekend @ The Box Office: 2015_Apr.06

    I, too, was hoping to see Ex Machina on the big screen. When I watch a trailer for it, I get the same eerie feeling I got watching Moon. I was also planning to see Insurgent based on the previews I saw prior to other big screen shows I went to see but have now heard enough bad things (and not...

    This Weekend @ The Box Office: 2015_Apr.06

    While I agree GoT makes any recent fantasy movies look weak, it doesn't hurt to have time to develop characters and stories like television shows have. Still, Seventh Son was fairly good and Hercules showed promise but fell short. I enjoyed The Hobbit well enough but that trilogy wasn't as...

    D&D 5E (2014) Why I love 5E - the renewal of Theater of Mind

    When D&D first came out in 1974 and we added it to the gaming rotation in Northern IL, we used minis or game pawns/pieces (sometimes just coins or paper scraps) to show where our characters were in the marching order and sometimes for combats to show relative positions. We did not have a grid...

    Trans Gender Con

    Trans Gender Con

    It's a joke about re-branding, obviously, and I would be remiss to exclude the LGBT community by not making the joke. We're all one, especially on April One.

    Trans Gender Con

    Obviously not the case and pretested on those I personally know.

    Trans Gender Con

    Rumor has it a certain Indy convention will be re-branding itself for August through the remainder of their contract with the convention center. We at CMG wish to congratulate the forward-thinking leadership of the convention and add our own support to their efforts in honoring the LGBT...

    D&D 5E (2014) How to handle a shapechanging Mermaid

    Fish hooks to catch `em but meat hooks to handle `em and sell `em. :p

    7 Years of D&D Stories? And a "Big Reveal" Coming?

    Fair enough. I had replied to an email from you the same way and only after posting, noticed Umbran's warning was right above mine and so deleted my post immediately lest I be one of the ones he was discussing (it's vague, so I didn't know). Anyway, going forward, leave me out of it.

    7 Years of D&D Stories? And a "Big Reveal" Coming?

    What's wrong with you? I've asked you to let it go and Umbran has told us to drop the discussion. You're discussing something that isn't even posted and dropping a "mention" on top of it. I can't discuss this anymore based on Umbran's moderator request so, please, let it go already.

    7 Years of D&D Stories? And a "Big Reveal" Coming?

    I'm more inclined to believe that the person painting so many others with the broad brush and tagging them as irrational haters has some sort of persecution complex. You're looking for a way to explain a sweeping feeling you have regarding people who didn't (don't?) like 4E. You're going out...

    7 Years of D&D Stories? And a "Big Reveal" Coming?

    You understand the irony of suggesting that? The difference is that I only need to be right about one person and you need to be right about the "largest part" of the people who don't like 4E. Even if you only broad brush to "large" it is absurd to assume that most folks don't have rational...
