    Exalted moral dilemma

    I would say, try other ways first. Find out why he's not dealing with you, and if you can work around those reasons, then do it. However, should you have no other reasonable methods, then you're at an impasse. As such, say "I understand you are a greedy merchant/using the mcguffin for...

    C.S. Friedman: Your Experience

    I have only read the Coldfire trilogy, but I loved it. Interesting magic system, the nature of faith, it's all a good read. And I have to say, the setting screams for a D&D game.

    Would your group stop a woman from joining?

    Of course I wouldn't. How else would our sodas get filled, snacks get made, and messes cleaned up? In all honesty, while I wouldn't have a problem gaming with women in general (we even have a little twelve year old playing with us now), they'd have to be screened, just like men. Our group is...

    Fellow DM, How do you handle Hit Point at each new level ?

    We use a either/or system. Either they roll a one, or I give them one. Actually, my players have a choice. Each level, they can take 75% of the max hp, including .5 if necessary, or they can roll, with a minimum of half the max. For the most part, they take the 75%.

    How Many Actual Sessions Has Your Current Long-Term Campaign Had?

    12.5 sessions. Yeah, I know. But for us, that's epic.

    Music Tastes

    I'm gonna have to go against the trend here, but I'm a pop junkie. Eminem, Ashley Simpson, JoJo, it's all good. As long as it's on MTV, I probably like it, but my favorites are definately Em and Linkin Park (but not that disgusting crud they did with Jay-Z).

    Um... Just how lazy are some people?

    You can order a pizza from the hut in under a minute? It takes me longer than that just to get through the ads before I'm allowed to actually speak to a person. Lucky punk.

    Aren't stereotypes wonderful?

    You know, the funny thing is that until very recently, the culinary trade was dominated by men. We all probably just forget how to cook when we go home, right?

    Extoll your hate of Valentine's Day (was: Extoll the virtues of your love!!)

    How can you forget about the other Saint's Day? What's more processional than wearing green, shouting at balloons filled with hot gas, and then drinking cheap beer with 40-50 strangers? Amen!

    You can't do anything nice

    While I have to appreciate the girls for trying something to spice up everyones' lives, where I'm from, you just don't randomly knock on a door at 10:30 at night, run away, and expect not to have some people freak. Of course, two underage girls just don't go out at night by themselves around...

    Lighthearted character names?

    I used to be really anal about "proper" names in a game. Now, I now my group is going to do it whether I want it or not, so I just go along with it. In our current group we have: Barrachus, the Black [B]A[B]nvil: Cleric of Hextor, wears a lot of gold chains, and pities every foo' he comes...

    The BEST movie ever

    Office Space Spiderman/Xmen movies Die Hard (the first, but anything with Bruce Willis rocks) Fallen Rome Must Die I could type for hours, listing my favorite, and still forget most of the films I think have a shot at "the best". But I'm easily entertained. P.S. Almost forgot Scarface...

    AAAARRGGGHHH!!! (Or "Enough with the trilogies already!!!")

    The Mis-enchanted Sword by Lawrence Wyatt-Evans is one of my favorite books. It's technically set in a series, but doesn't really reference other books. Otherwise, all my other recommendations have been said.

    Help with retrieving files from an old hard drive...

    So, my motherboard fried itself, and while I'm waiting for my new computer to get put together, I have a laptop from a rental store. I'm wondering, is there any way to get the files from my hard drive in my tower onto my hard drive on the laptop? Thanks for the help...

    New game, need some ideas... Looong.

    Just started a new Eberron game tonight, and it started off pretty good. For the first time in a couple of years, I really feel the players are really into the game. I just figured I'd hit up the good people of ENworld for some plot ideas. First, the cast of Characters (all second level)...

    You get ONE item ...

    Ring of regeneration, if it'd help with my premature cardio-vascular disease (Triple bypass at 25 sucks. Knowing I'm gonna have to go through the surgery every 5-10 years for the rest of my life sucks worse.). Failing that, anything that could cast healing spells, without charges. With the...

    Name the most evil character you've ever read/watched! [possible spoilers]

    Vince McMahon! He subjected millions of viewers to long winded speeches that ultimately end up being "The match tonight is..." Then he goes and ruins the great sport of wrestling even further by destroying all his competitors.

    I'll be interested, but I'm not gonna be able to play until I can open my Christmas presents (Got the game, just waiting for the card). I'll repost when I'm up.
