    Are Published Adventures Too Long?

    Too short, for me and my particular group. We like 'em as long as possible - we far prefer APs and mega-modules compared to most other adventure types.

    Cheating cheaters

    I'm surprised that this even needs to be said!

    Deva or Aasimar?

    Aasimar, since it's related to aasimon. 2e flavor rules. That's right - I said it.

    Cheating cheaters

    Number of posts in this thread out of 163 in which "booting" has been the only suggestion: 6/163 = 3.7% of the posts in this thread - and almost all of them by the same person. All others, if booting was even brought up, noted such an action as being a last resort. It has long since been noted...

    TV-Fringe--Season Premiere 9/2008

    I have hope for it. Thought it was silly and unnecessarily convoluted in places - lots of reaching and 'coincidences', especially to create the goofy "twist" in the end. But I love me some Megacorps, so I'll be curious to see how they use Maximum Dynamic in the future. "What don't we do." =...

    Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles Season 2

    Thumbs up to Brown Jenkin's post. Those things bothered me, too, especially now that you mention it in detail. I can answer one thing, though - John being "freaked out" is because he killed a man right at the end of Season 1. He's never killed before, and it looks like it's not sitting well...

    DMs: Do you tell players the DC before they roll?

    Sometimes - but only if it should be obvious. Otherwise, no.

    The Classic Dragon Reviews - Take 2

    Tremendously fun to read! (Though the month-long and then year-long jumps are a bit jarring...!)

    Cheating cheaters

    Who said anything about "100%"? A possibility one might have to live with, if one has fringe tastes.

    Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles Season 2

    Not bad... not bad at all. A little deus ex machina in one part (I hope I'm using that phrase right), but still acceptable. Weird and a little off-putting, but acceptable. And - is that Shirley Manson of Garbage? That's interesting. And holy hell, !

    Broken images in White 2 skin

    Heh. In IE6 (what my office uses), the white background is a complete disaster. No images whatsoever, everything compressed into the middle of the screen... a complete (unusable) mess.

    These threads are a blast to read!

    Cheating cheaters

    Necessarily? Oh heavens, of course not. But I think the OP has been more than clear about the current situation and tastes of his particular group. :D And that's why I'm glad I put in words like "probably"...!

    If your group didn't like 4e...

    Switch? My players want to stick with 3.xe into the forseeable future, and I'm definitely cool with that.

    Player Skill - what is it?

    Some might call it metagaming.

    Cheating cheaters

    Just noting that this is an excellent excellent method (especially so if it really is bothering your players more than you - the onus, and responsibility, is on them to handle it... not you). An early 'policy' to make is to ensure everyone rolls out in the open so multiple people can see it...

    My thoughts on 4e Dragon magazine

    Fascinating.

    Player Skill - what is it?

    All of the things you mention. And what TerraDave said. Good use of strategy and tactics. Asking appropriate questions. Making use of critical thinking skills and implementing the results during the game. Problem-solving. Anticipating possible outcomes and crafting strategies to deal with said...

    An open letter to Randy Buehler

    Emphasis mine. Rather strong words for being completely and utterly wrong. Hell, besides the already aforementioned ST overview, even AoW had the "AoW Overload" document shortly after that AP started. Why even say that in the first place? Weird. In any case, the fact that those in charge of...

    New Confessions Up

    I don't know what's real and what's made up to make a good article.
