    Abstract Wealth Systems - yes or no?

    I like it in a modern setting (like d20 Modern or Shadowrun) but wouldn't use it in a D&D game. I am much too 'old school' for that.

    Opinions on gmail?

    This is pretty much my experience as well. But what is this about ads? i have never seen an ad in my gmail account?

    Games you were turned off of and why

    I didn't know anything about the game when I played. I quickly found out and never played it again. Pretty simple (I thought).

    Games you were turned off of and why

    Hackmaster - despite what its adherents claim the in 'jokes' ruin this game. AD&D 2E - drove me not only from D&D but RPGs in general. Vampire:the Masquerade (I think it was 2E) - never, never, never again (although i kind of like the simplicity of the new World of Darkness core book). Vampires...

    What do you use for a character sheet?

    MadIrishman 4 page Character Sheet and EMA's spell list sheet (although copy and pasting from the SRD is not a bad idea.

    Other official compendiums you'd like to see?

    Compendium of Feats Compendium of Monsters (it would be HUGE!) Compendium of Prestige Classes Artifacts would be Ok I guess but I would hardly ever use it.

    Does anyone else never play humans?

    I mostly play humans...when I get to play. I;ve only played in 2 3E D&D games and both times my character concept was for a human. I should have taken my shot at a Dwarven Cleric when i had the chance. In CRPGs (like Neverwinter Nights) I play a variety of races and classes simply because I can.

    "What do you mean I can't...?"

    "It is a difficult enough thing to swing a sword in combat without severing an major limb and you want to do it while running? Uh..sure go ahead! -4 to your attack roll and I'll get out my Critical Fumbles Tables' ;) But I understand what you mean. I just look at it as Spring Attack giving...

    What is the minimum level would you play if you were never to gain xp again?

    I voted 10th myself. A nice round number with a couple of stat boosts behind it and 5th level spells for all. I would feel a sense of accomplishment advancing from 1st to 10th.

    OotS and 8-Bit Theater -- any others in the same vein?

    Join it? heck I'm the Vice President! Wormy was one my first experiences of D&D humour. Of those that have been listed I think i like Goblins the best. Sir Vorpal El Kickasso is going to appear in a game of mine one day ;)

    Just wondering

    Read the PHB for hackmaster. Thought it was funny. Made up some characters for Hackmaster. Thought they were funny. Played Hackmaster. Not so funny. Much too much of everything got stuffed in there. I can't see anyone playing with even 1/2 of the rules presented in the GMG and PHB. Add...

    What Happened to '[Insert 1E/2E Spell Name Here]'?

    Wow. You know i never even thought about it until now that so many classic spells are gone. Sticks to Snakes, Chant, Melf Minute Meteors (possibly my all time favourite) and Write. How could I have not noticed these until now? Wierd. I put a Staff of Striking in my older 3E game (now...

    Annoying Elves

    Nope. Bilbo and the Dwarves end up at the Last Homely House (Rivendell) in Chapter 3 'A Short Rest' long before they get to Mirkwood. But you did have me confused too for a moment. Time to reread a classic I think.

    Dungeon #130

    Thanks for the sneak peek! I get my issue at the local games shop (yeah, yeah I'll get a subscription someday). Should be here end of this or next week.

    Vote on current OotS storyline

    Yeah I take 'funnies' seriously. I like them to be funny and don't like it when they are not. Currently, to me, the storyline in OotS is weak. It isn't engaging me anymore. Oh well, it still took 250 strips to lose me though.

    Annoying Elves

    No. Not in my campaign.

    Order of the Stick: How long will they put up with Miko?

    Hey - that's cool. Different strokes and all that. I'm just (like Sammael) dissappointed to see the storyline go ina direction that doesn't thrill me like so many in the past have. I'll still read OotS but it probably won't be the first thing I click on each Monday, Wednesday and Friday.

    So when's the movie finished?

    Trailers are Ok in my book too. I like at least 4 but my limit is about 7. i've never been in a theater that has shown more than 7 trailers however. Commercials are teh suck though. I can completely do without them and I don't believe for one minute it was anything than another way for...

    How often does the grapple mechanic come up in your game?

    Very often. One of the PCs is built for grappling but he has many other combat options too.
