    Babylon 5

    Just finished re-watching S1 over the last few months. I'd agree that there are certainly some eps that can be skipped as they have zero impact on the rest of the series. However, there are many eps of those that are actually pretty damn entertaining on their own. I'd say just pop in the...

    Whatcha gonna run? Whatcha wanna play?

    Haven't quite nailed down what I wanna run yet but possibilities include: - A sequel to Hellpocalypse. - A pirate themed game likely using Savage Worlds. - A game very loosely based on Predators or The Expendables. Or any other movie I've seen recently that included a very malleable concept...

    Inception - Thumbs Up or Down?

    That'd make it too easy. ;)

    DC Gameday VII -- October 9th and 10th, 2010

    Hah! I'm gonna run something that's already prepped. It can't fail! Unless someone hands me a hex map. Then all bets R off.

    Uh, no thanks, I'll play this instead.

    Six hours? That should only happen if you've got 6+ players (which is gonna be a long game anyway) and there isn't someone savvy with the rules to avoid looking things up. Also, it's rare. Any game with so many moving parts can suffer drag if the right situations happen. I can't hold that...

    [Dread] Jenga beat up my dice! My results from the indie horror RPG.

    She's gonna run something?!?! :cool: So sad that I won't be there.

    [Dread] Jenga beat up my dice! My results from the indie horror RPG.

    A few other folks said the same thing at the con. I know that Queen_D has mentioned a Alice in Wonderland Dread game recently. I think it's just one of those things where no one was running it from the ENW/CM crowd.

    BSG Saturday Evening

    Yeah, I was in other stuff Saturday but there wasn't much boardgaming at all this year from the ENW/CM crew.

    Midnight Gaming

    Just a heads up that pretty much every night Wed-Sun there will be boardgames and such in the Embassy Suites Lobby. I don't wanna schedule any specific games but if history is any indicator there will be plenty of interested people. :)

    Inception - Thumbs Up or Down?

    It had to be steady with the confined environment. Hardy to mess up just panning the camera while too guys are wrasslin'. ;) I took it more as an establishing scene that we were in the real world. She tips it over at the end and gravity works properly.

    Google: UI Going Downhill

    Dunno about the plug-in (and I'm too lazy to do another search right now) but this is helpful:

    Google: UI Going Downhill

    There is a firefox plugin. Also, they've tweaked it further so it's better than it was. You just have to get used to it. :)

    Inception - Thumbs Up or Down?

    Don't think just Transformers. Like his flicks or not, the man knows how to do action and make it entertaining. EDIT: It's also worth noting that Nolan's fight scenes are always littered with the terrible shaky cam effect.

    Inception - Thumbs Up or Down?

    If Nolan had Bay's flair and eye for action he'd be the perfect director! :) As it stands now Nolan's only shortcoming are his action scenes which have always been a weakness by comparison to his other skills.

    Inception - Thumbs Up or Down?

    Very likely. :) Fight Club was a massive mindscrew as was Dark City to me. Those flicks left nothing to interpret. It was clearly spelled out that what came before had all changed and needed to be viewed with a different perspective. Now, the same thing happened with Inception but the...

    Inception - Thumbs Up or Down?

    I didn't see it as a mindscrew. Just different layers and many different ways one can and probably should interpret the film. There's the love story and then there's the caper. Whatever else one would like to attach to the film is what they brought with them or, more likely, read between the...
