    The Beginner Box

    I am. I gave it to my brother for Christmas they year it came out and we played it with our dad while my young daughters looked on and our wives all rolled their eyes. Just like I'm nostalgic about The Adventure Game that friends brought over to my house after they'd watched the horrible D&D...

    What is the #1 most important thing to remember about DMing?

    Throw out lots and lots and lots of plothooks. And when you think you have enough, throw out a bunch more. They don't have to make sense (even to you, the GM) yet. You can put the pieces together later.

    Sagiro's Story Hour: The FINAL Adventures of Abernathy's Company (FINISHED 7/3/14)

    I think Flicker has died at least once before and when he came back was told to focus on Rogue levels. Of course, I may be wrong.

    Panicing D&D 3.5 DM!

    "Do the Hustle!" Doo doo doo doodoodoodoodoodoo! Seriously, terrain is going to be your friend. His zombies are going to be more effective in dungeons and other enclosed areas that restrict movement. In the wilds, cities, areas that allow for flying enemies (stirges will avoid the zombies since...

    what easter eggs are in your homebrew?

    Our group has been together roughly 12 years and the first 10 was all a single campaign. When the first DM had to bow out 2 years ago, I took over with a new campaign. So I stole heavily. A demi-god from the first campaign was mentioned briefly in a library book in the new one. An NPC paladin...

    The new girl

    An equal opportunity offender! (must spread some XP around...)

    The new girl

    If you define "being social with women" as acting awkward and creepy, then I think we're doing just fine.

    I totally fail at #1 and #3.

    The new girl

    Not nearly enough. As others have mentioned, wife and kids are given most of my free time. And now that I'm DMing, game prep has taken a lot of the time that used to go towards painting. The painting stuff all seems to be in the Media Lounge now. Here are a few helpful links. Tallyrand's Guide...

    Stargate Emoverse to be cancelled

    Actually, only 8 years. I absolutely LOATHED the last two seasons and the whole ORI story arc. And I couldn't really get behind the two new cast members either. I did enjoy SGU, though. It provided a nice change of pace for the franchise.

    What happens to crops that aren't harvested?

    I know what my group is facing tonight. :)

    What happens to crops that aren't harvested?

    I'm still wondering how much damage you take from being hit by a catapulted gnome, hag, or gnome hag.

    What happens to crops that aren't harvested?

    So does it only throw Gnomish Hags? I'm trying to plan this out. Size matters! 3.X Gnome Hags or 4.0 Gnome Hags? In one you lose a bard and in the other you get to take its stuff.

    What could possibly go wrong?

    Definitely! It looks like a lot of the issues above originated with lack of notice of the rules changes before character creation. Also, it may depend on the group. If you're playing with old friends and the group's been together for 10 years, they will probably be more patient and forgiving...

    Guilty pleasures

    Hackers with a young Angelina Jolie but my favorite character was Matthew Lillard as "Cereal Killer". Weird Al's UHF. Dazed and Confused. I think I saw this one 50 times throughout high school and college. Documentaries. From Darkon through stuff about HH Holmes to Brother's Keeper. My wife...
