    As a player, do you have a preferred gender for your GM?

    Hi, I'm calling in from the 21st Century here. In this era, we don't assume that husbands control what their wives might be "exposed" to, as that puts the wife on the level of a child, not an adult. Certainly I think talking to the female player first, instead of going through her husband...

    As a player, do you have a preferred gender for your GM?

    That doesn't sound like respect at all. It sounds like patronizing male chauvinism of the type that drives women away from the hobby in droves.

    WWII: What should my RPG setting be?

    Stopping aliens from helping the Axis is kind of boring. Better would be stopping the aliens from helping the Allies.

    Rule of Three: 20/3/12

    Why would such a figure be a particularly good moral archetype for a fantasy roleplaying game? Do such entities exist in the related fantasy fiction? Is it fun to play? Does it open up a set of gaming options that might not otherwise exist? If you ask me, the "maintain the balance" alignment...

    Something Awful leak.

    Stag Helm and Premonition Ring both give increases to Passive Perception (and not to Perception in general).

    Help! Is my player cheating?

    No, it's one mind in two bodies.

    The Utility of Class Rarity

    Class rarity was not invented by the SA leaker; it's from what WotC has said about D&D Next.

    The One Hour D&D Game

    I must be weird or something, because I don't see one-hour adventures as desirable in any way.

    Rule of Three: 20/3/12

    This rule-of-three filled me with more "do not want" than the SA leak.

    Lair Assault: Attack of the Tyrantclaw

    I played it today. We went long on time and had done over 200 points to the T-Rex, and half our party was still up, so the DM gave it to us as a win. After things collapsed, my pixie ninja was using the ballista to shoot dinosaurs, pew pew!

    D&D 5E (2014) 5e: Stat the Lady of Pain...so we can overthrow her

    Not me, especially not with the "macho" tone you're dripping all over this post.

    Something Awful leak.

    I'm really, really hoping that they make major changes during the playtest period.

    Alignment in D&DN...

    That's a feature, not a bug. Those traditional spells are traditionally awful.

    Dynamic Challenge Ratings

    This sounds like a good suggestion for a 3.x game but I sincerely hope that the concept of "CR" will be dumped in 5e.

    Make Race Matter

    I'm a bigger fan of synergy between race and class, rather than forcing each member of a certain race and class into a predefined box (e.g. all fighter-dwarves use hammers and axes). So I'd rather not see each class have "here's the little fiddling bonus you get for your race choice" especially...

    Return of the Bard

    I really hope the AD&D bard doesn't come back.

    D&D 5E (2014) What attitude should Next encourage DMs to have to TPKs?

    I think the "gloating" point of view should be highly discouraged, apart from exceptions such as Lair Assault.
