    Advice on Opening a Game Store!

    Okay, as a consumer who has frequented game stores, there is one thing that nobody seems to have mentioned... MAKE SURE YOUR STORE SMELLS NICE. I'll probably get flamed for this or something, but a good portion of gamers aren't too strong in the odor category, and you get a whole bunch of them...

    Baseball discussion thread

    Haha, it's not going to be the freaking Padres, that's for sure. You go to a Padres game, and they give you 1998 memorabilia... kinda like, "well, we went to the World Series, once..." It's horribly depressing.

    Book of Vile Darkness. Used it?

    It gave me some good ideas for demon-worshippers. IMC, evil-types worship demons (which can grant spells), and there are no evil gods. There's only one god for the humans, that would be a Judeo-Christian type god. Barbarians have their dieties (plus a bit of ancestor worship), there's an...

    how long do you let combat go? why?

    I remember six minute matches. I was a lightweight (112's), and those matches are all moving (unlike heavyweight matches, which were just fat guys slamming into each other). Sometimes you couldn't help but vomiting and quivering like a jelly afterwards. I couldn't imagine doing it with a sword...

    Price of Books too high?

    They probably could have afforded to have the price a bit lower; a good portion of the 3.5 books seem to be reprinted material. Of course, they had to fix everything they wanted to fix, so I'm sure that took a few man hours. Someone mentioned above something about a hypothetical (or not)...

    Worst 5th party member

    I have never liked monks. I am a die-hard Tolkien-ite, I guess, or at least I like Euro-Fantasy the best. I don't think monks fit in with that at all, and it bothers me. I guess I'm small minded. Oh and they suck.

    WotC's Financial Crisis??

    Hello, I'm new to these boards but I have been lurking around for a few days. One of the things I've noticed is several mentions of WotC's woeful financial state. I haven't kept up with things roleplaying related in the last few years and I was wondering if someone could explain the situation...
