    [OT] My aching neck...

    How you are sleeping can make a big difference. From everything I've read and have been told by my doctor friend AuroraGyps has a good suggestion. Sometimes the roll for the small of your back is dropped but the one for your neck is always there. Ysgarran.

    Old revisions thread (ignore)

    The real question is if they change it by the time the 3.5 books get released. At this point in time I doubt this will change. Here is a stat. block from one of the Rangers, another change is that Knowledge(Geography) seems to be a class skill now. Male Human Ranger 3 CR 3; Size: M Type...

    Babylon 5 RPG preview!!!

    The Designer's Note in the preview mentions a computer game. AFAIK, no computer game actually made it to market. There was one that was planned by Sierra Studios but got axed before it ever reached production. They refused to release the rights to anyone else. There was an arcade game but I...

    I saw the MATRIX 2 thread SPOILERS ABOUND

    You do have a valid point, anytime you get chuckles out of the audience you gotta figure the scene could have been done better, escpecially when that particular one was being played for laughs. I just thought the whole scene was to support Persephone's attitude towards the Merovingian and her...

    I saw the MATRIX 2 thread SPOILERS ABOUND

    The scene I thought about is at the end where Neo is flying to the rescue and pulling cars in his wake. The film then implies that he begins to fly even faster. A lot of innocent people had to be hurt in that wake. It occurred to me that the Matrix characters are callous when it comes to...

    I saw the MATRIX 2 thread SPOILERS ABOUND

    Here is another thought I had about the Matrix Reloaded the other day. I was reading someones review of the movie and they mentioned the dance party in Zion. I thought it was an interesting contrast between that dance party and the one that happens in the first movie were Neo meets Trinity for...

    The Merovingian (minor matrix spoilers).

    It wasn't clear to me that the 'monsters' were all rogue Agents. Rather I thought they were rogue programs of one sort or another. When the oracle is speaking to Neo she mentions that there are all sorts of programs running around in the matrix. She uses the crows for an example. I would...

    X2 vs Reloaded (may eventually spoilers)

    X2 was fun and I did enjoy it but less than 10 minutes after I left the theater there wasn't very much to talk about. OK, maybe we'll see the Dark Phoenix storyline explored. Maybe I'll see the next one when it comes out or maybe I'll just wait for the video. With the Matrix Reloaded has...

    The Merovingian (minor matrix spoilers).

    The more I think about this the more I like the idea that the merovingian was the one in a previous iteration of the matrix. It would be heavy burden to know that you were part of the destruction of the former Zion. In a sense, he is damned because his actions when he was 'the one'. The...

    I saw the MATRIX 2 thread SPOILERS ABOUND

    This reminds me of the story line of Babylon 5 and the war against the shadows. The real choice is the third path, not the two obvious choices provided by the Shadows or Vorlons. I'm not familiar with Grant Morrion's The Invisibles, I'll have to look at that. later, Ysgarran.

    I saw the MATRIX 2 thread SPOILERS ABOUND

    More thoughts about the Architect: The Architect deliberately presents Neo with a 'choice'. But how hard can it be to know which door he would choose? If the Big A had actually wanted Neo to "Return to the Source" all he had to do was paper over Door Number 2. So what's the *real* game...

    The Merovingian (minor matrix spoilers).

    Neo has shown that he can die and still be reborn. What would happen to his mind if his body was unplugged from the Matrix? I think this would play into the idea of who persophone is (as the wife of the Hades). It also occurred to me that the Merovingian might be an AI that was changed by...

    Can someone explain the semantic difference between pertinent: having a clear decisive relevance to the matter in hand and relevant: having significant and demonstrable bearing on the matter at hand

    The Merovingian (minor matrix spoilers).

    Is there more to the Merovingian than meets the eye? I'm guessing we are going to see alot more of the Merovingian in the next movie. I think most people know who the Merovingians were in history (a dynasty that ruled France from about the 5th century to the 8th century). One legend says...

    Matrix Reloaded, what does this mean?

    A complex question for you gaming-gurus out there...

    Just how long would it take for the coffee plant to grow to maturity? Or is the there an assumption that there is a mature coffee plantation to buy? If there is one on the market competition for that plantation might be sharp especially if someone is looking to form a monopoly of some sort...
