Thank you everyone! All of these responses have been tremendously helpful! Keep them coming though. This thread has one, perhaps two selfish BUMPS left in it.

Your luck never does seem to change :( I've got no problem competing with Orgins, but we may lose people to it anyway. Don't any of your coworkers owe you favors? If they don't now, we can have some sort of event where you come to their rescue from a masked assailant (me). :] Naturally they...

Well if you just want to be a writer and conspirator, that's fine by me... we can sucker someone into running a slot like this, a horrific masterpiece conceived by an evil duo such as ourselves... :] And thalmin, the chainmail bikini is IN this year!! Follow my simple dietary plan and you'll...

Your subtlety is unparalleled, Barendd. ;) I agree with the non-published thing being a bit more fun. But who indeed would be willing to be the co-conpirator and DM... perhaps YOU! :D I work well with others on dungeon design, but I'm afraid of going solo for something this cool and...

This would be absolutely a wonderful thing to try... Any volunteers for writing an adventure that would be able to feature a little competition such as this? I'd gladly be a creative consultant/editor guy, but I'm not sure I have a ton of time to devote to actually writing something down...

Ich kann nur ein bisschen Deutsch sprechen...(i think that's how you say it..) I think it would be much harder to translate and gather any meaning from the book than would be worth my time. Thanks for the suggestion though! And thanks to everyone... and... BUMP

Hire some extra staff at Games Plus for the gameday and have them wear chainmail bikinis while serving pop from the machines. We don't have to pay them. They'll be paid by the pleasure of our wonderful company C'mon, you all know you want to see thalmin wearing one... ;) :D

This is quite possibly the funniest mental image I've had in my mind for quite some time... :D

Another round of thank-yous and a Friday evening bump, for all of us losers online instead of gaming it up or going out on the town with a lovely lady (or handsome gentleman, as the case may be). If I've learned just one thing during this first year of college it's this: don't wait until a...

Rodents of unusual size perhaps...? :heh: :D *hoping he hasn't screwed up his Princess Bride quotes*

As far as I can remember, the CGD seems to have been a 3-times per year event. I've quite fond of the rotation, as it gets people with perhaps different schedules more chances to come to one of the gamedays. Not to mention more gaming per year is much better in my book... :D I love the...

Ooooh... I want to be in that forum!! :D

Check out the "Jalston" products over at Creative Mountain Games they're pretty cheap, excellently put-together, and very interesting locations.

You guys are awesome! Thanks a ton, and keep suggestions flowing!

Thanks DJ, interesting minutiae (too lazy to spellcheck this) like that are bound to be interesting for the rest of the board, but what I'm lookin for are actual suggestions of BOOKS to look into for stuff to put into my paper.

Fellow history buffs, I need your help! For honors credit in my Western Civ class, I'm writing a ten-twelve page research paper about the folklore and superstitions of medieval Europe. Do you know of any good historical sources that I could use in my essay? Primary and secondary sources are...

I'm a freshman at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, majoring in history. I'm planning on being a high school history teacher, and if I can, do theatre stuff wherever I end up teaching. I'm hoping my studies of history will inspire me to finally build up my own homebrew setting... :D

Listen to this man: he knows of what he speaks! The studying can be a real drag, but all of the work pays off--you'll be getting a big job someday because of what you do now. (You also get to party your ass off and drink yourself into a stupor--though don't get yourself hurt--but save that for...

While not as fun as the real stuff, it is still slightly satisfying at least... I actually have a pocket PC version of this for my Dell Axim.... :D

Ash, check out Baldurs Gate II... my roomate and I are having quite a bit of fun playing it together. :)
