Feargus really knows how to troll better than this! I can only give it an 84/100!

Or that, like Games Workshop, they just don't care.

This is self-destructive and stupid - and so shortly after riding such a big wave of good will. Whoever is responsible should be canned.

Thanks for collecting these together!

Maybe there's an inherent limit to its popularity. More cynically, maybe every time the "industry" starts to really hit its stride, something comes along and knocks it over in a vain attempt to teach hobbyists to be customers.

I think charting this one out would clearly show that single-bloodline dragonborn sorcerers gain less from their choice than mixed-bloodline dragonborn sorcerers. This makes one choice an optimal choice, which to me says the OP has a point.

"Mr." Gygax had atrocious spelling skills, browbeat editors, and seemed to actually enjoy infighting and flame wars. Malapropisms? He's even got George Bush beat there. He's not a diety. He was a p. cool dude though, and hell yeah he carved a pretty awesome legacy.

Everyone here would buy that. Not just that "that", either. Almost any "that" we could wishlist. That's the problem. Most everyone here is hardcore and will buy everything D&D-related because of the branding.

Hey! You can't cheat if there are no rules.

This survey looks like it's going to feed into and inform further surveys. Very "low level" questions. I wish it didn't have random questions though. I had to take the survey several times until all class balance choices I wanted to vote on came up.

Tempted. I've only got a couple (One and Too), but they fell apart ages ago and are in a binder.

Yay. Freeport. Again.

Like kenmarable says, there's a lot of RPG history in those lists, especially around the lead-up to D&D3. I don't see the OGL listservs in the archives. Did they take those down after Dancey's little indiscretion? Edit: Memory failed me. The OGL listservs were run privately by Dancey. Long gone.

Don't listen WotC, stick to your plans! The surveys told the truth, bloat is bad. The hardcore & the amateur press want monthly releases, but the hobbyists just want a healthy game!

Hey! Nice to see Necromancer Games come around after the crap they gave the OSRIC people for using the OGL in exactly the same way.

Yeah! They're killing babies with all their hyperbolic whining! ... Wait. Who are you talking about? Or is it just a sermon?

I have NPCs going in and out of play nearly all the time. Sometimes the group is forced to hang with NPCs they hate. Usually it's pretty dramatic and often hilarious.

I love riddles, but I rarely use them; riddles grind on some players' patience and I'm firmly against the idea of "make your save to solve the riddle." No intelligence checks here. When I use them I try to put the solution out there somewhere they can find through exploration or role-playing.

I like Abishai. Did they make them more draconic in 3E? I have Monsters of Faerun somewhere but never used it much. In AD&D1 the only thing they shared with dragons was the color scheme and Tiamat worship. Planescape went further and dropped the draconic stuff entirely IIRC.

1. That list is cool, looks good, and 100% accurate to top it off. 2. The word 'iconic' has been abused to the point that it has very little meaning to most people.
