I knew I was forgetting one! I saw that episode, too! I laughed the first time, but it got really annoying as it went. (Can't believe I forgot to mention The Dalles ... my brother lives there, after all.)

I'm going to join with those who say that age doesn't necessarly mean anything, but I'll also admit it does affect the odds. Oh, and the wants to play monster characters thing ... very scary to me. I've had too many bad experiences with players who want to do that for all the wrong reasons...

"I mispronounced Oregon when I moved here from Texas. Boy did I get disabused of that error quickly! Now I cringe when national newscasters say "Or-ee-gone"." Heh, that's why I've got the correction at left, to help out all those foreigners. Sounds like your acclimated now ... but tell me, how...

Hey, I know this was a page back but ... Sniffles, I thought the "onion bulbs" were called minarets, too. (Quick research proves that to be cupola, after all.) I'm also noticing some geographic proximity ... perhaps a case of regional miseducation? Any non-Oregonians with that misconception?

I'm really enjoying the mag over all. I think Erik's doing a great job, and I don't want to lose him. I'm also broad-minded enough to realilze that not every page of every issue is likely to be something I'm gonna love even if I was the only person it was being published for. But as long as...

You should stay out of the whole situation, game included, sadly enough. I would advise not saying anything to Spud; it would probably damage his relationship with the Guys, and that would backlash to you. Only problem I see still existing -- he'll find out that they're playing eventually. If...

Hijinks left??? But I had a question for her, 'cause there's something relating to her topic that I completely can't figure out -- and it sounded like she could answer it for me. Dang.

I must be the only one, but ... I'm glad it's not Planescape.

If I were living "near Detroit" I'd be asking if I could join the game!

"D&D's philosophy seems to be that those who get enjoyment from heavy character involvement don't NEED the rules as much. So the rules exist for those who get enjoyment out of knowing how good at hitting a charging troll at 20 paces Gwyfayri is. I don't need any sort of manual to tell me motive...

As much potential as this situation has, I gotta say ... Monkey Dragon, you've pretty much given the suggestion that hits my reason for playing this game on the head. A character driven mess that is bound to have an action packed solution is my idea of a good game. I can envision the "You've...

Which is why half of the sentence quoted was "... depending on far too many campaign world details to speculate on here."

I'm glad to see the rejection of the "roll-playing vs. role-playing" joke. Because, though not everyone seems to have gotten the world yet, it's a false dichotomy whose time is up. It's an x-axis and a y-axis, not a zero-sum quantity. One thing every player character has in common is that...

I think the phrase we're looking for to describe the type of "association" between the paladin and the priestess is "in custody". The paladin has offered the priestess a chance to avoid death, but other punishments, from what we're told, are not yet ruled out. For that matter, The Proper...

When I was in college, we had a Top Secret campaign running. One player had created a character named Leroy, who was somewhat psychopathic and prone to unnecessary bloodshed and property damage. Actually, the whole campaign was prone to unnecessary bloodshed and property damage. But Leroy so...

I haven't checked this one out yet ... but I didn't like the mongrelmen in 1e or 2e. Looks like there still won't be any IMC.

Well, I've been told I have an evil grin and an evil chuckle. And that was from a co-worker who doesn't play RPGs, though by this time maybe my players are just taking it as a given.

On the "Only Sith deal in absolutes" subject ... dividing the Force into a dark side and a bright side is an absolute. Any sentence that starts with "only" is an absolute.

I've gotta go with "Live and Let Die". Everyone aknowledges it's a great song, but in my case I'm also a Beatles fan, and as a Bond fan, that movie was my introduction. As a result, I admit I may be biased by sentiment. "Nobody Does It Better" and "For Your Eyes Only" rank high as well. On...

CarlZog, I always want more info on better/easier map-making!
