    Ever lost an amazing player?

    Neat thread idea! Phillip, he was a member of my group from 1984 until about 1987. He was a great friend, one of the few people I really enjoy handing the DM's chair over to and an excellent player. He still lives in the area and still games, but we drifted apart when I moved out of the area...

    "A Thousand Years of Power"

    That's sounds straight form "Reno 911." "I've got boots of escaping! I've got boots of escaping!" DM

    For those that drink, what's your poison of choice?

    I drink a total of less than half a dozen alcoholic drinks per year, but I am a sucker for run & cola. I love dark rum and am a snob for premium cola (not Coke, but Red Rock). DM

    How did your gaming group come about?

    Since I have been gaming for over 20 years, I am only going to go as far back as the longest running player in my current group. In September of 1999, I had DM'ed a grand total of 2 sessions of D&D since 1992. One of those two sessions, this one in August 1999, was with some former students...

    Problems Alternating DM's?

    I am asking about case #1. I know a group that does case #2 with great success, but I am not interested in it. DM

    Great Villain Showdown [5th Round Results Posted]

    Round Five: 1. Hannibal Lecter 2. Emperor Palpatine 3. Sauron (Lord of the Rings) 4. The Joker None of these were as difficult as many from previous rounds. I am still bummed that none of my picks made it this far and the coyote did. DM

    Favorite Pizza Topping

    We order from a local place called Chicago Pizza (we're in South Carolina) and they pretty much have our toppings memorized: chicken, spinach, sun-dried tomatoes, artichoke hearts and feta cheese with mozzarella and red sauce. It is delicious. DM

    Problems Alternating DM's?

    I am wondering if anybody here has DM'ed in a setting with alternating DM's and/or campaigns. What I am considering is switching DM's every 2-4 weeks, with each of the 2 DM's running a distinctly different campaign. For those of you who have tried something like this, what were the problems...

    Need level 5 One Shot!

    No problem. That is one of the things I love about this place too. If you decide to use ItBotB and have any questions, feel free to ask. It ran well when I ran it. The only difficult thing is that there are a whole bunch of NPC's for you to run. Or, if you have a crowded table, you can give...

    Need level 5 One Shot!

    Are you familiar with Atlas Games' In the Belly of the Beast? It has a neat premise, works even better if the players don't know each other all that well and will fit your time requirements. I is for a slightly lower level, but I souped it up for a slightly higher level party when I ran it. It...

    Ravenloft: I6 or House of Strahd?

    Thanks for posting a link to your conversion! These things are like gold to me... they save me SO much work. I like running the classics, like I6, but don't always have time to do the conversions myself. There are so many great old adventures, including many Ravenloft adventures, that do not...

    Let's run a module: the vote take 2

    Yes. I thought the idea was to run a one-shot or insert. Here we are talking about everybody starting a lengthy campaign together. I am not prepared to run WC as a one-shot or fill in. I assumed that it would be more appealing as the beginning of the ful AP, as it is to me. DM

    Types of Armor in the Campaign World

    By light armor, I mean cloth, padded, leather, studded leather, chain shirts and maybe breastplates. I do intend for there to be some less combat intensive goals, some political ramifications to what the PC's do, and am looking for heroes and villains with flair and panache instead of walking...
