    Battlestar Galactica:Season 2 7.22.05; Part 1 NSCR

    Well, whatever you do, don't go to the scifi.com main page for BGS. They put fraking spoilers for Ep 10 right on the front page! I'm seriously frustrated by that.

    Battlestar Galactica:SEASON 2 PREMIERE

    Be forewarned that there are spoilers for upcoming eps in the podcast. I'm skipping it for a while for that reason. At least he was very upfront about it in the podcast. I'm very much trying to stay in the dark about this show, and it's becoming exceedingly hard to and read anything about...

    Apple HAS switched to lntel!!!

    Not necessarily. I can't say much more because of the nature of the information here at the conference, but there is very little of that going on, heck, Mathematica 64 compiled for X86 relatively quickly. The question we want to ask is: What kind of performance hit will we be taking by making...

    Mac OS X Tiger

    Dashboard gaming widgets. I'm installing Tiger on my laptop already. In fact, one of my players has already gotten into the act, creating a Deshboard widget to roll dice. I'm looking forward to the potential for gaming for dashboard more and more.

    Battlestar Galactica:Season Finale {SPOILERS UNLIMITED} 1.4.05

    Well, the baseship is toast. But yeah, no other resolutions. :lol: Really, though, I thought it may have been the best season finale in a very long time. Excepting maybe B5 Season 3, that was pretty wild.

    Help me think of this Dungeon Adventure?

    Now that I'm back for real from Easter vacation, here's why I want it. I'm thinking about turning that little Side Trek into a murder mystery in Lower Sharn, where the culprit is a Slithering Tracker, and I wanted to use parts of that adventure as a guide. As I don't have the module myself...

    Help me think of this Dungeon Adventure?

    I'm looking for the name of a critter from a Dungeon adventure from the late 80's-early 90's. I believe the adventure was a side-trek and the setting was an inn in the wilderness. It was supposed to be an eerie adventure, and the PCs were supposed to figure out what the critter was that was...

    Battlestar Galactica {Spoiler Talk} 3/11/05

    I posit to you that she is not the best at anything. I don't think she did a very good job at interrogating Leoben, for example. I think she was getting played like a card game, and she didn't even know it. I also agree that she is also not the best strategist, that the battle plan cooked up...

    [Mac] The Mac Software Thread (Free and Alternative Stuff)

    Yeah, the granularity is where you really start to get in trouble. There are two extremes, right? One is you enter every single value and every single sentence and paragrapth. The other is the extreme of having every single bit of data and calculation pre programmed into the software so that...

    [Mac] The Mac Software Thread (Free and Alternative Stuff)

    Back when 3.0 was king I dl'd a PC app called Stat Block Generator, which was just a TK windows app that allowed you to input values and created a stat block from them. That's a simple widget I would LOVE to see for the Mac. Even though I am a Unix Sysadmin, I'm a lousy coder, so I've not yet...

    [Mac] The Mac Software Thread (Free and Alternative Stuff)

    That Stat Block Paster rocks pretty hard. But is there a Stat Block Generator for the Mac?

    All right you Galactica fans. (spoilers for The New BG)

    It's interesting, because the show hasn't directly aired in my market, I'm not bombarded with advertisements. Because I'm not bombarded with advertisements, I have no idea what is coming when I watch the next episode. No previews, no spoilers. It's great. I'm really digging seeing the show...

    All right you Galactica fans. (spoilers for The New BG)

    We've now seen 6 hours of the New Galactica. Thoughts? So far I'm a big fan.

    Has anyone done a 3.5 revision of City Of The Spider Queen

    Nope, no full conversions yet. We're running it in 3.5e as well, but we are running for 8 characters instead of 4-6, so we're beefing up a lot of baddies, and adding more in other places. Not very useful.

    AAAARRGGGHHH!!! (Or "Enough with the trilogies already!!!")

    But...But...what about? Tigana? You know, by that guy, yeah, that guy, Guy Gavriel Kay? One of the best fantasy books of all time, made better by the fact that it is a standalone book, and not stretched out into some series?

    Steven Eriksons Malazan series

    Agreed. I imported all of the books from England, but I have the first two in paperback, and the last three in the big trade paperback. I will probably buy the hardcover version, and read them, since the paperbacks are fragile.

    Answers. I won't ruin your enjoyment of Memories of Ice with any cheers or jeers for it, then, let it stand on its own merits. :) -jeremy
