    [ot] Speakers

    depending on the connections used for your computer speakers, it shouldn't be to much of a problem. most of the hometheater recivers i have seen use the same output for their speakers as your free speakers have in some form or another so you are set there.

    [ot] Speakers

    well, the way i got my computer pumping through my system was to get an adapter that converts headphone jack to rca audio and put it in the headphone jack of my crappy speakers. the rca audio runs to the reciever (any reciever will do the job) and out through my decent system instead of my 10...

    Dragonlance CS Question of Elven Nature

    all of the societies in dragonlance come off lawful but i think it's just because so much has been written about them and the easiest way to give a reader an idea about how a society works is to show them it's laws. good to see that the silvanesti are being called lawful though, such a rigid...

    Geek Eye for the Straight Guy

    i believe it's a hypothetical quote search billy. "yes, they do make dice with more or less then 6 sides." "no, we are not affiliated with satan." "stop throwing the dice at the table you cretin, lightly drop them so your new cat we got you, "drawmij", will not choke to death when your d12...

    Burning out on best campaign I ever played in

    oh, the empathy i feel right now is near impossible to contain. i have been in a group for years where the dm seems to like having his npc's be the main characters and having his world wide story arc be the main feature of the campaign with ultra powered npc's doing all the "important" fighting...

    Mensans, reveal yourselves

    well whatever it is that i play it tends to come up with most of the group's plans that work and kick a disproportionate ammount of butt. i refused to take the lead today and i kid you not 5 rounds later the whole group of 6 had finally ascended a 15 foot staircase. oh, cleric/wizard currently...

    Do you have the stereotypical DnD "body type".

    5'11" 235, live near the gym but only get there like 3 times a week. and yes, there is a little carpeting on the back, as for being proud? why? it's not like i fertilised it.

    Edmonton Game Stores..

    i think as long as you keep your prices in line with the recomended cover price you will probably be fine. if an independent store way up here can charge me less then listed price i see little reason a store in edmonton should have to mark up as long as it's in a moderate rental price area, not...

    WottC Miniature Handbook Same Mistake as Chainmail?

    truthfully i hope it flops, i am sick of companies putting a new coat of paint on something terrible and trying to sell it again instead of actually listening to the feedback about why their last similar product failed. perhaps it would finally spur them on to create the mass combat book that...

    Anyone here from Edmonton, Alberta?

    for years, living in grande prairie, where the last great nerd store closed down over a decade ago due to a lack of buisiness brought on by cat urine odour (coincidentally the rentadm's went on to make baldur's gate, the half orc in the mines was a character of my buddy wade's), i had allways...

    Anyone here from Edmonton, Alberta?

    i also may be moving there in the near future from my desolate home 4 hours drive north. if that were to occur billy, it would be an honor to have my characters killed by a dm with a little style.

    Missin' the Gaming Life So Bad ...

    well, that would be because bunnies are the central all-controling evil force in the universe Crothian. so when you see conspiracy, chances are somewhere, if you look hard enough. you will find one of those fuzzy mamals pulling the strings of countless saps. you may just see a cute little...

    Players from Hell.

    so i was spending tueseday as i usually did at the time right. i was gaming with the same group i had been weekly for five years. the king of a powerful nation has put a bounty on the group of 3, a N klingon (yes, that's right, the dm is a huge star trek fan so we put up with crap like that...

    Encumbrance, hunger, and less gold = more immersive roleplaying...?

    number 2 other then whining, rolling the player's skills for them can lower the immersion level and lead to a lack of focus. for alot of players it is just not the same if they are not rolling for their character's actions. they want to know that both THEIR poor rolling and THEIR poor planning...

    How do you like your dragons?

    i like to use dragons as guardians of the world's largest treasure piles. they are the materials used for the worlds finest hats,boots and gloves as well as a nifty quarterstaff or dagger on occasion. ever had dragon jerky? who hasn't, that's so level 5! the heart basted in the creature's own...

    how do i get "the fire" back?

    i realise once a month someone does this. i find myself rapidly losing the will to campaign. in any way, as dm or player. i have tried playing characters that do not fit my normal range and i have tried changing settings. in a span of one month i went from being extremely content with the...

    Substandard parties

    i've been a player in a three man group for awhile and let me tell you it's great for getting things done quickly. we usually play a rogue multiclass with a tank type as it seems to be the easyest for the dm to not kill accidentally but still challenge. if you want to min/max a bit single levels...
