    Smart Phone

    ..I have been with Sprint since the late 90's. Reliability hasn't been an issue, but the sound quality is. I recently heard that might be because they tend to stretch their cell tower network pretty thin. ...My father got an iPhone 5 last year and switched from Sprint to Verizon. He is very...

    WotC/WizKids D&D Miniatures: Difficulties Reading the Bases

    ..I use some spray clear coat (matte/dull) on the underside of the bases only after using the pen. It keeps the silver from rubbing off on things.

    Ideas for a corrupt but liked ruler

    ...How about the idea that he is generally well liked because he has virtually eliminated taxes and 'cleaned' up the streets of the poor, the homeless and criminals? The down side is that he runs a secret, underground slave ring that exports those arrested to be sold in other nations. ...I'd...

    DM Only Forum

    I'd just go to the edition forum of your choice and read the subjects on posts. DM's seeking advice are pretty easy to pick out.

    D&D 5E (2014) Do you have fights that are *supposed* to happen?

    It does not bother me as a player, or DM, if some of the encounters are handled without violence. The major ones, like boss fights, will probably require it.

    Weather in Campaigns

    I am interested in seeing how people deal with the weather in their campaigns. Do you closely keep track of seasonal weather? Do you roll randomly on a weather chart? or do you ignore the weather completely?

    "When the clock, which Ahmed put inside his school bag, beeped in the middle of an English class, Ahmed brought it to his teacher, who reportedly told him it looked like a bomb, according to Ahmed. The teacher confiscated the clock, and Ahmed was later yanked out of class by the school's...

    Character Death

    ...I think it's less of trying to penalize players and more of a throwback to the old idea that death should have some sort of consequence. Having also DM'd and played with some folks who like to show up with a new pc at every session anyways, it helps cut down on the madness.

    Questions to ask my players-Making sure I am still a good DM

    A five point scale would probably be easier. List your GM attributes and allow them to rate how well they think you are performing in each area. Maybe something like: on a scale from 1 to 5 (with one being unsuccessfull and five being very successful) how well do you think I _____? (i.e...
