    Greatest Insult to a D&D PLAYER (OOC)

    Cheater would be the worst insult I could imagine. Any of the other comments made by folks who don't game and don't / won't try to understand it is water off a duck's back; I've heard it all in the 28 years I've been a gamer. It used to sting a bit when my wife would sigh and say "When are you...

    Never buy from Lowe's Ever.

    Whoah, sounds like a nightmare. I've never had any trouble with the local Lowe's, in fact, I wrote a letter to management about a wonderful employee there who was courteous, knowledgeable, and extremely patient and helpful to my wife and I when we were buying blinds for our new house, all of...

    RPG systems you liked -- much to your surprise

    Rolemaster/Merp came as a big surprise, dragging me away from my beloved AD&D. The group I played with in college was itching for something else to try, and one in the group had the old boxed RM set with the black and white covers of Arms Law, Spell Law, etc. We got very hooked on the detail...

    Have you been disillusioned by the disillusion threads?

    Mythbusters has disillusioned me with shark jumping lately.

    Dwarven Monk miniatures?

    There's a dwarf brawler at Discount Hobby; he's wearing a cloak and hood and carrying a mug, and swinging a mailed fist. Could be a nice figure for a Drunken Master type. http://www.discounthobby.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=DIS&Product_Code=4297

    What old books do you still own? The first OD&D box anyone?

    Still have my Holmes basic set that I started with, with the B1 module in the lovely pale greenish :) The covers of both the module and rule book are held together with tape. Don't have all the box anymore, just the front of the box with the fighter, wizard, and dragon. Still have all the old...

    Do you like D&D?

    Moderately prefer is the option I had to pick. I like 3(.5)e a lot, but I do prefer 1e's ability to whip together a party within 10 minutes. Hell, 5 if you'd played before and people didn't have to share a pencil :)

    Failed promises

    Whoah, D, that's something I haven't drug off my shelves and opened in 15 years, thanks for reminding me I have it. :) I'll have to open it up and re-read the combat section.

    Painting and Using Miniatures or Not?

    Have hundreds of the prepainted plastics and love them, use miniatures all the time. I generally use miniatures and scenery for every aspect of adventuring and dungeon delving; my players are younger than me and grew up on a diet of video games, they scenery definitely helps them to be in the...

    Am I alone in this?

    Can't eat raw carrots, the smell and taste make me sick. Once cooked, they're delicious. And I can't eat grits unless you put them in a cup, stick a spoon in them, and let them cool and congeal into a gritsicle. Mmmmmm.

    How to tell a friend's girlfriend to get a job or something?

    Stay out of the middle of it. Support them, love them both for their flaws, let them make their own mistakes, and be there for them to cry on your shoulder when the split happens. Then you should be in the position to get some hot rebound sex from her. Or him. Whatever floats your boat.

    Failed promises

    My biggest disappointment was RttToEE; I just expected something different than a never-ending slog through that elemental ring dungeon thing.

    Failed promises

    Failed promise? A poor thread that started off interesting and devolved into Whack-a-Troll.
