    Another "Have You Ever Had This Player?" Discussion

    I used to game with this very person. After she and her boyfriend broke up, we never gamed with her again. After they got back together briefly, we never gamed with him either. I can't game with people like this because punching them in the face might get me arrested.

    So, some friends of ours have learned about "Planet X" in school...

    Now I'm gonna have an eye twitch all day long. . . My main arguement for why Pluto should not be regarded as a planet is that its (highly eccentric) orbit does not follow the same plane that Mercury through Neptune do. A secondary argument is that its orbit is so eccentric that it is...

    Lines of Lightning

    Canis, congratulations on post 1234. As for lightning, I can't say I have a good solution to this question, but I do think that you raise an interesting questions and that Len also makes a good point. Now I'm just bothered that there is no readily-available, sensible solution to make lightning...

    Thongs

    I think the idea is that while any underwear is going to ride up anyway, thongs, with less material, present a corresponding smaller problem.

    DM overruling a Player's play of his character

    Semantics: Scream v. Shout I'm generally dead-set against a DM over-riding PC's choices, but this comes down to how the player phrases it: if the normally stoic, tough-guy character keeps a stiff upper lip until there's no audience around, and then cries like a little girl when he can do so...

    Update on Damon's (lung cancer kid) condition

    Read, Subscribed, and Bumped. Sorry to see you go, Jester, but if you don't enjoy it, and don't foresee a time when you will again, there's no point in continuing. My best wishes go out to Damon. Lung cancer sucks, and 3-4 years-old is supposed to be fun. I earnestly hope he turns around...

    The Weekly Racial Substitution Level Thread

    I doubt it. See, there's real time, like they keep at the Naval Observatory There's football time, where the first 30 seconds of play take 30 seconds, and the last 30 seconds of play come out to about 30-45 minutes. There's people-who-have-kids-time where "I'm ready to leave right now. Let's...

    SKR Adventure in Dungeon 126

    Spoiler below SKR: "Encounter at Blackwall Keep," Installment two of the Age of Worms Adventure Path. I was uncertain whether I would bother with the adventure path at all. Now, I know that I'll be running at least one installment. I can already guess that the highlight will come when I...

    DTRPG Security Alert notice (merged)

    Now you can all feel my pain. I hardly batted an eye when this came up. Lately, I get the same wonky certificate doubt every time I sign on to Hotmail. This is the first time I've ever had the problem here. Thank goodness, too. This gets old fast.

    Favorite Pizza Topping

    You mean fruit like pineapple. and olives. . . and tomatoes. I can take or leave pineapple on my pizza, depending on my mood and on the pizzas other toppings. I, like Joe, am a vegetarian, and have been long enough that I feel the same way Tewligan does about my pizza, except about dead...

    Names of Taverns, Bars, and Inns

    Good idea, Stik! Off the top of my head, I can think of a few bars/inns near me: The Spur Field and Stream Inn The Alibi The Silver Dollar Saloon The Cortez Room Grumpy's Tavern The 21 Club The Refuge Planet Rock, formerly Rugby's, formerly the Sports Exchange 227 (this is the address of the bar)

    Names of Taverns, Bars, and Inns

    There's an inn called The Inkpot where most of the city's scholars and a few of the apprentice wizards spend time. The shingle outside features a (non-magical) picture of an overturned ink well in a puddle of ink. The proprietor is a sage in his own right, being an expert on beers, wines, &...

    UA Variant - Aspect of Nature: opinions

    Perhaps you would be so kind as to refresh my memory: What features characterize these two variants? (Remeber, UA is almost entirely OGL, so if you feel inclined to post details, you can post as much as you like about either of these two without infringing on product identity or copyright...

    Horrid Horticulture

    Fiend Folio, page 190 I had never thought before about how similar this is, thematically, to the orcwort found in Monster Manual II, page 165.

    Ravens: Swarm and Giant

    Good call. I don't recall ever trying to sneak up on a conspiracy of ravens (we only have crows here), but I suspect that they're more than a lilttle alert, and pretty skittish. Thanks, Joe.

    D&D 5E (2014) Taking point buy to the next level

    I never used point-buy, but this intrigues me. We use 4d6, reroll 1s until there are none, arrange as desired. This consistently generates super-powered characters, which my players love, and for which I can compensate with suped-up monsters and other challenges. The problem is that I...
