    How Girls and Boys Play

    Weird. I am female and me and my sister (who unlike me is very girly pink-pretty-fashion-loving-type) both played in 3rd person, and it was my brother who used more 1st person. You sure they didn't get it opposite results for what is common.

    One funny memory.

    Nowdays, maybe. Few years back, my second nature. I got called "random encounter" as a joke by couple or roleplayers I met "similar way". That aside I felt shameful about my rpg friend that would go on about (stupid) stuff about games he played while we were at same business school. He missed...

    How to ease players into a sandbox style?

    So true S'mon one of my players (and dm also) is major turtle who wants us to turtle too when he is dm and run from dangerous things. I nowdays demand him to run always modules because his own adventures are not adventures, they are almost happen but then it's too "dangerous" so run and build...

    How to ease players into a sandbox style?

    Some people don't do well with "sandbox" style. My group is full of them. They claim they want freedom and instead of adventuring we have finding some safe every-day work life. They are utterly boring, that is. I have similar tendercy but I have another one too that ruins game if gm has prepared...

    "Lost Girl" on SyFy. Anybody seen this show about a succubus?

    Hex girls will only go for immortal female witches, ghosty lesbian girls and demon lords. You don't have a chance. Miss "lost girl" however, goes for anyone.

    How Girls and Boys Play

    Where I live this would be extremealy unusual. Not to mention different laws here what comes to guns and using them to "protect". Stay-home-work is very unusual possibility here. So it's not only about children, it's also about you. Different culture.

    How Girls and Boys Play

    I don't have children, but my close friends have. There is one boy and 3 girls. They have bit different personalities but as age under 5 they don't really show some girl/boy-like qualities and kinda prefer similar toys. Ok, one girl had mostly girly stuff, but when I bought here some legos...

    "Lost Girl" on SyFy. Anybody seen this show about a succubus?

    Ah now I remember. Another series that had similar girl-sidekick was series named Hex. It ran two seasons and was very dark and rather depressing. Evil certainly was more evil in this series. But if you want to see another series with clea.... and lesb.... then that's the one. Plot would...

    George Lucas Blames 'Star Wars' Critics for Killing Series

    He wasn't the one, you invented that story, really, well part of it, but most ideas he contributed were the bad ones. New trilogy is more of his. Like was his contribution to Indiana Jones meets UFO crystal new age skull. Yes, I am being way too sarcastic, but thing is he really is special...

    George Lucas Blames 'Star Wars' Critics for Killing Series

    I won't be missing series. Lucas is weird person, has too much money, can't live with woman and doesn't mentally live in planet earth. This is based on his interviews and my peronal opinion naturally. New series might have been made for his motherless kids, but for normal family movie I think...

    Bait-n-switch or screwjob campaigns

    I hate when this happen. Many gm's have done this. And almost always that ended that game after session or two. Problem are that usually your character become useless and npc:s do everything. Like some scifi game when gm WANTED us to make characters who were doctors etc no combat skills. And...

    Who else hates seeing enemies Raised / Resurrected / Wished Back?

    I hate it, in-character. Sometimes I hate is as player too, but as often I think it creates interesting situations. My characters woudn't agree for most part to that.

    How Girls and Boys Play

    It's really stupid to say somebody prefering beauty. Since that is one thing that is very much opinion, cultural thing and such. Girls refer much more than boys into different things as cute/pretty/beautiful. It's not the same thing than there would be general shared idea what is percieved as...

    "Gamism," The Forge, and the Elephant in the Room

    I kinda have always wondering what really intrests people in Forge-theories. I used out of curiosity visit Forge and it reads to me same way as pretensious crap in some new-age/other brainfarty things people make up to trick people to give them money/get followers to tell them how...

    I'm sorry, your character is too good

    Heh, I got recently told this. Well, it wasn't just power-level, character was also very complicated. And dm didn't know all rules used that well. This is no problem at all, once in a blue moon I get inspared to create something, well, what is way too much for that game. I like research for...

    How Girls and Boys Play

    I think truth about the study is no-way related how boys and girls are different when playing with legos. But is has all to do, with fact what makes most mums (females 20+) get legos for their little girl, instead of barbies or other such.

    Everybody Look Surprised - Diablo III Delayed Again.

    I think this has more to do that they didn't want to devour their own customar base. Also, I don't think coders have worked on this full-time, Blizzard is busy with WoW and "next generation mmo game with workname Titan or something". And let's not forget Star Craft 2 and "soon" to come part two...

    "Lost Girl" on SyFy. Anybody seen this show about a succubus?

    I watch it. Humorous supernatural show. Sidekick girl remains me of another sidekick girl of another similar but more serious show, forget the name but that was really angsty show. I don't think Anna Silk fits that role very well. Some probably like her, but I don't feel she is that sexy to be...
