    Gotta go, gotta go, gotta go right now!

    My players have no problem holding back/delaying/doing nothing on their turn during combat when it's appropriate. They consider taking no action a legitimate 'action', if the situation warrants it. ;) However, it seems that - at least compared to ENWorlders - my players are surprisingly patient...

    Rock Band 2 vs. Guitar Hero

    Hmm... guess that's the case for the poor Wii version (unlike the PS3/360 versions). Oh well... sorry about that. I'd say it varies and depends on who you ask - different people like different instruments. I prefer the RB2 instruments, but others (including my wife) like the GH guitars more, as...

    Terminator#21:TSCC-Adam Raised a Cain/Season 2/2009

    Next to Fringe, this is the best show on TV right now AFAIC. A fricken' awesome episode, and loved what they did. Surprising, with a heck of an impact. It'll be a real shame if it's canceled. Our theory continues to hold - there are two machine factions in the future, and one (John...

    Rock Band 2 vs. Guitar Hero

    Wow. Even if it was RB1 vs. Guitar Hero: World Tour, there wouldn't be a competition. RB (of any sort) blows GH out of the water. Twice on Sundays. (I own both, BTW.) RB plays better, has better music (if you consider the downloadable stuff in there as well; they're about even [depending on...

    Does 4E uniquely lend itself to humour?

    No, I don't think so.

    Can you railroad a willing player? (Forked from "Is World Building Necessary?")

    Good question. IMO, there is indeed an objective definition of railroading - but as to whether it's always a bad thing is subjective. (So, if the players don't mind, then it could be railroading, but who cares if it is?) (Now getting agreement as to what the objective definition of...

    Heroes #21:Into Asylum/Season 3/2009

    Well, you're completely wrong (as best as I can tell from your incoherent post), so I guess we're going going to have to agree to disagree. Sorry. :D coyote6 has it right. Bang-on, actually, as to how I see Danko and his inexplicable behavior. Great post, coyote6.

    Why No Lost?

    Not sure about this episode... to much mumbo-jumbo with a dash of stupid-stick beatings. "He will never be the same again. He won't remember any of this, he'll lose his innocence, and he'll be one of us forever. Mugga mugga zing wow." Wha? zugga zugga? Hopefully they'll explain what the heck...

    Heroes #21:Into Asylum/Season 3/2009

    *shrug* Sure. Never been much for pedantry. That's what it looks like. Not that it makes any sense given what the show has shown us so far, AFAIC (which I already covered in my post). We'll see how that goes. I'm not convinced that trading an annoyance right now for 'possible future...

    Let's read the entire run

    They first appeared in the 1e Fiend Folio, making it all the way to the 2e Fiend Folio Appendix (MC14) and then the 2e hardcover Monstrous Manual compilation. (Our group has updated them to 3e.)

    New Forgotten Realms designed by FR haters?

    I started with 2e... and the ToT still sucked. So I, personally, doubt it.

    SERIOUS Business????

    Starsiege Tribes is back!

    Cool. I fricken' love Tribes.

    Why No Lost?

    Why was Sayid incredibly stupid during all the conversations with Sawyer? "Hey Sayid - got a plan, we're freeing you and now you can join the rest of us." "Nah... I'll just sit here and... do nothing. Or get executed. Whatever." Wha...? (Cheered at the shot in the end, though there's...

    Heroes #21:Into Asylum/Season 3/2009

    Pretty much what most everyone else said: just not a very enjoyable episode. Danko, especially, makes no sense whatsoever. He hates the people with powers, but teams up with one of the worst? Pffft - the show's never made any reasonable attempt to make that a believable action. Twirl your...

    Castle

    My wife has been, and likes it so far. I watch on and off. My favorite characters are the two police boobs/buddies side-characters. Funny.

    May Blockbusters

    Very likely Wolverine, Star Trek, and Terminator - but this is highly subject to change after hearing word-of-mouth after their releases. (For example, I skipped Watchmen and wait for the blu-ray, after reading every single interview with the director that I was exposed to having him blather on...

    Judging character performance

    If I were still playing 1e, then yes, I would agree. Even today, I'd somewhat agree with the first two (cleric & fighter).

    New Forgotten Realms designed by FR haters?

    *shrug* Beats me. You're obviously directing that at the wrong person. *shrug* I do - comes with the territory of defending foolish statements, actually. But telling people how they should feel doesn't get you very far at ENWorld. Something to keep in mind. That's something you can continue to...

    New Forgotten Realms designed by FR haters?

    Interesting. It's completely the opposite for me: I'm only interested in purchasing a setting if it has a significant amount of lore available. Oh... so it's not a success to you. ;) Since you seem to be insisting, the most often-quoted example is in one of those early 4e preview books...
