Well, I don't like to complicate things. The two times I've had to toss someone, it went something like the following: "You there! Get the hell out and don't come back!"

I routinely save people's academic and professional careers for a living. Yes, I am a University IT guy. :D

Not inferior/superior, just different. I prefer B/X D&D and 1e AD&D to 3e for various reasons, but none of that really matters. My group currently plays 1e because we have a darn good time doing so and that's the best reason of all.

I'm with Pogre on this one.

Sell 'em. Use the proceeds for newer, shinier books. Or beer at GenCon. That's what I do.

I don't mind, and say "a moderate amount of detail" in a non-commital way, regarding the wilderness. I enjoy the sidebar stuff, both as a DM and a player.

Buzz, the only one I'd keep from that list is Unearthed Arcana.

Go ahead and change my status to CONFIRMED. I will be there. Very much looking forward to playing 1e GW.

Kinda sorta. Here is what the descrition of Fighting Men says: Further: So, Dwarves and Halflings have a choice of Fighting Man or Thief, and Elves are AD&D styled multiclass Fighter/MUs, which is different than the combined elf class in the Moldvay and later editions of Basic D&D, albeit...

That's a show stopper for me as well. I refuse to buy any DRM stuff from DTR. I have no problems with watermarking, however. Once Necromancer products went to watermarked, I bought about $150 worth of stuff, so I have put my money where my mouth is.

Buzz- Scratch me from the WHFRPG game, I got handed the on-call pager on the way out the door today. :(

Really depends on the party, all of your answers can work under the right conditions. In additions, being an old-school guy, I'm quite used to the idea of henchmen and hirelings a-plenty. It's a nice answer, as you let the players do most of the running of them, with die roll checks (or flat...

In my homebrew, as a general rule, the various humanoids are xenophobic. Up until the recent past (500 years), it was a hardscrabble exisitence for all of them, populations were small, and the amount of land was enormous. In the past 500 years, the weather has been fabulous, populations have...

When I first started playing, we didn't have any minis. So to me, no. They are a nice add-on, but they are outside of the game's core to me.

Hell, that's almost more Southern than Midwest.

Well, my commute is only 1.5 hours, so I don't have to pay for a plane ticket. My budget has been in the $550-$700 range, depending on how many people I split the room with, how well I want to eat, and how much stuff I buy in the dealer hall. I think it's certainly worth that amount.

I might take one of those thursday slots, (if you'll have me, of course!) I currently am scheduled for an event, but I'm sure I can find someone to take the ticket off my hands. I'll get back to you in a day or so.

Or maybe not. If I had a look at the back cover of an accessorie, and it told me it *required* me to have the PHB2 or Complete books, I'd probably put it down and not purchase it, as I have no desire to purchase the PHB2 or any of the Complete books, for example. Even worse, if I bout...

That's a good point. The pre and post conversation has always been a good time.

Never with that intent, but in practice, many books have fallen into that category. In some cases, some of the books never got read. This is why I have almost completely stopped buying new gaming material.
