Hope your FLGS stocks more adventures than mine does, otherwise you'll be saving loads of money this year. Or paying loads of shipping. And hey, when it comes to Revolutions, I strongly favor the unnumbered "hard rock" single-only version to the White Album's "doo whop" Revolution #1, or the...

The Entire d20 Industry: This year we aren't gonna write any new rules and are going to instead focus on character, story, setting, adventures, and ideas to help DMs and players better create those things for themselves.

Ummm..... err.... uhhh..... lemme get back to you on that one.

You mean I'm not the last Roger Waters fan on earth? Cool.

The more I think about it, "magic user" sounds like someone who should be in rehab. "Sure, I can quit casting spells anytime I want to. I just don't want to."

Books. People are always talking about them. "When's John Q. Gamedesigner's new book coming out?" "I just bought this awesome new book today." "Have you read any good books lately?" "Our band was just booked on a six month tour!" "Take him down to Central Booking." "The monkey in the corner...

Thanks for the information and input everyone. Between the info you all provided and watching the Performance tab under Task Manager when some of the slowness happens, I've pretty much concluded that I'm not likely to benefit much from an upgrade to SATA. A RAM upgrade might help, as...

Yes. It's part of the OGL. In order for anyone, including Wizards of the Coast, to produce D&D/d20 material they are required by the terms of the license to focus on rules to the detriment of flavor. ;)

I liked the original trilogy, ewoks and all (but I have a high tolerance for cute). I haven't cared for the prequel trilogy at all. The books, comics, and games I've liked to varying degrees. Games seem to fare better for me than anything else. I still drag out the Win98 remake of 1993's...

I'm blanking on the exact error message, maybe something about Server Maintenence, but if you read the fine print there's also something about a proxy server problem. Anyway, EZBoard has been having them more frequently of late. I get them, not daily, but a few times a week at SKR's board...

Dunno if I miss them exactly, but they did give a different feel. Tell me a tale about heroic thieves and magic-users and it evokes different things in my imagination than a tale about heroic rogues and wizards does. I can understand why "thief" was changed, (and I often disliked the term...

FireLance, my editor has run away screaming in pain and mumbling something about how he hates you. I, however, feel nothing but gratitude because this is the first time in years that he's shut up. This whole thread serves to support this idea I've had for a while that, at least for English...

Okay "Fed Ex Express" may or may not technically be redundant, but it still sounds dumb to me. I know there are sentence constructions in English where it is correct to use the same word twice in a row, but the little editor who sits inside my brain (and is the reason it takes me half an hour...

Thanks for the input. OS shouldn't be a problem, unless there's something newer than XP Service Pack 2 out there that I haven't heard about. Quick glance through the motherboard manual isn't turning up the bus speed on the PCi slots. The processor is using an 800 mhz front side bus, but if I...

I didn't notice the instance on today's News Page (was too busy trying to remember if previous Dungeon Crawl Classics were print-only and if this was a shift in publication method), although these sort of things bother me sometimes too. In particular trucks which say "FedEx Express". Umm, do...

Yeah I know I posted in this thread once already. But I'm unengamed again, so if any gaming group in the Asheville area is looking to fill their pony-tailed-and-bearded-guy quota, give me a shout, either here or at blueimagine at juno dot com (DnD or ENWorld in the subject helps me know a...

I got a little holiday cash and have been thinking about using it to do a computer upgrade. Right now the major bottleneck on my self-built machine is the hard drive. It's an IDE, and running at 100 whatevers instead of 133 due to my choice of motherboards. As it stands now if a program does...

Does Dragon magazine count? Issue #110, page 9 of the magazine, top of the third column describes in quite a bit of detail the process for creating a dracolich, including the specific ingredients of the potion involved. Now granted the process only works on dragons-- which don't exist in the...

Why do people climb mountains? Because they're there. Why do gods destroy continents? Because they can. Or to be more specific, perhaps a relatively new deity was trying out their newfound powers and had an "oops" moment. For another suggestion, maybe the inhabitants were studying the one...

Yeah, something's a little off in their subscriptions department. I had let my Dungeon subscription lapse because I wanted to get it and Dragon renewing at different times to lessen the impact on my wallet, and of the two I knew I'd be way more likely to drive to a store to buy Dungeon. Well I...
