The "Oh your imaginary friend died, get over it, it's just a game." argument never really sat well with me and it took a long time for me to finally figure out why. Imaginary or not, characters in a long term campaign do represent a significant and substantial investment of both time and...

One of the main songs from "28 Days Later" and "28 Weeks Later" is "In the House - In a heartbeat" is a terrifically menacing piece of music. It starts off very, very soft and builds to a positively demonic finish. There's also that accordion piece that plays over the title sequence of "12...

Phil Foglio has started putting the "Magic (the Gathering) Years" of "What's New" on his web site. What's New with Phil & Dixie Online Comics And reading it won't cost you anything (well aside from all the collected volumes of his stuff once you start reading it).

Hell no! It's one of their most popular shows (I think). It's just that the VB people are not a big operation and The Venture Brothers is done in old school animation (not the SP/AtHF barely animated computer pictures), so it's a while between seasons. Besides if it was I wouldn't have time to...

The unlimited 3G access is $30, the least expensive phone plan is $40 and the taxes + fees come to about another $14. You have to get the 3G/data plan. I'm not sure how usable the iPhone is with any of the DRMed streaming video is. Due mostly to the DRM needing to be supported. Your bandwidth...

There's remakes of several of the early (pre Final Fantasy VII) games, including VI and IV IIRC. Final Fantasy Tactics got some good games released for the DS (some original, some remakes). There's also a remake of one of the early Front Mission games (I can loan you that one if you want). It's...

You can get essentially all the capabilities of the iPhone minus the phone/3g portions (but with WiFi) in the iPod touch. It will run all the iPhone aps (minus the phone ones obviously). The $1,000 iPhone bills were people who didn't set their phones right when they were doing overseas trips...

Bruce Campbell is doing a tour in support of his new movie "They Call Me Bruce" in which he plays himself, who has been roped into battling the Chinese god of War (and bean curd). My Name is Bruce Should be fun and he'll be showing up in person according to the schedule on the linked web site...

There really isn't anything to be curious about. We're not talking "So bad it's good" or even "So bad it's wacky". It had a shoestring budget, uninteresting characters, boring scripts, etc... It was basically just dull and uninteresting. It was awful in the worst kind of way, it wasn't even bad...

Nameless gets 2 summoned creatures from a SM spell off of the same level list and 1d4+1 off of a lower level list. He actually had to use 2 SM VIII to get the three Vrocks, but Shil decided to gloss over that part.

Your insults have incurred the wrath of the deadly Monarch! Our Guild approved henchmen will be around shortly in accordance with Clause 27b, sub-paragraph C, appendix iiv, of the Guild charter.

Anime is here to stay. The anime section at BB is as large if not larger than the SF or Horror movie sections. They don't do that for stuff that doesn't sell. While toonami did help get anime established in the US, it's easy to overstate how much of an effect it's had. I suspect that it would...

They have recently found all of the original footage for Metropolis. The version most people have seen is one that was severely re-edited and dispensed with large chunks of the plot. The most recent restoration attempt, from a few years back, put in still frames and descriptive cards to attempt...

One thing that might help is if you do some of the RPing out of session. Say on a web board, in email or something like that. Not everyone is good at working in real time and the ability to edit and refine what a character is saying or how they react may give them a lot more freedom to come up...

The frequency gets more erratic when Shilsen is back in India for the summer, but he still generally manages to get out an update roughly every 2wks to a month. So his story hour in my sig definitely fulfills the requirements. The Chronicles of Burne, alas doesn't. Having a second kid has...

Basically we've been playing "Whack-A-Mole" with aberration armies. Hilarity Ensues.

1) Items like the Naga crown also generally don't double spells due to specialization or high int. A "burned" spell slot isn't going to get doubled either. 2) Yeah, it's untyped damage AFAIK.

The "Only Use 10% of the brain" theory was disproved decades ago. It's unclear exactly where it comes from, but seems most likely to be based on as scientifically valid information as Phrenology (ie. not at all). It is completely and totally incorrect to claim that living organisms "don't...

"Kimagure Orange Road" - Kind of old (mid eighties) and won't be readily available (netflicks might have it). Very funny, classic love triangle, great soundtrack. The movie which concludes the series will rip your heart out. Urusei Yatsura is a great series, there's a couple dozen OVAs and...

Er, have you read over the stats for the bad guys Eadric and friends are up against? These aren't the sorts that you just walk up to and start hitting until they go down. This has one of them. http://www.enworld.org/forum/plots-places/5652-eadric-et-al-paladin-his-friends-22.html
