    Using cards in your game?

    Definitely I use cards for lots of things; mostly because all my players are pretty new ... things like how stats change when they do things like rage or use various feats. Also special items, custom monster stats(for lower level anyway; dragons and spellcasters require a lot more space)...

    Which rules do you NOT use?

    Encumbrance, for the same reason. Also, I don't use cross-class skills. It seems to add unnecessary complexity and I just plain don't like the cross-class skills thing anyway.

    How cheesy are the names of your locations?

    I think names that I come up with are not so much cheesy, but very derivative. Abhorrec(abhorrent) the Unholy; current bbeg. Hunedain, the current emporer. Kelemar the Betrayer, fallen defender of Syrene's Glory. Azure City. The Path of Night. Sad Man's Way. Partshire. Do'Shan Ghul...

    Are high attributes more fun then low attributes?

    I like to have polarized stats: 2 high, 2 low, and 2 moderate(10-11) THe most fun character I've ever played had a strength of 6, a con of 2, a dex of 18 and an int of 17. Simply making it to the next day was a huge reward.

    A damsel in distress!

    Huh. I had exactly this happen in my game about amonth ago. THe damsel is a dragon. A silver dragon, but the PCs don't know it yet. They just suspect she's more than she seems.

    Ebon Eyes

    I know little about these spells, but you may want to compare all the mechanics of them: duration, target, distance, etc. That may be where the difference lies. Given what you say, though, it does seem backwards.

    World of Warcraft killed our gaming group!

    I feel lucky here. Most of my players are brand new to DnD; brought from video games. One of the best things they love(mentioned, anyway) about DnD is that you can try and do anything at all. Just roll a d20 and I'll tell you what mods to add(or subtract:)).

    Now I Caught A Player Cheating Today....

    If any of my players are cheating, he's got to be the worst I've ever seen. THe entire group has such bad luck with dice that a combat between four 3d level characters and a gibbering mouther took 14 rounds.

    Why is Min/Maxing viewed as bad?

    It could be made a sticky on the boards. Maybe that wouldn't be much, but it would be more.

    Why is Min/Maxing viewed as bad?

    librarius_arcana, this is for you: I believe what folks here are asking for is a rationale for your assertion that M/M is contrary to designing a character as opposed to a set of numbers for a wargame. While I do respect this sentiment, I believe that what you see as M/M is seen by others here...
