    How many hit dice do you have?

    You know, there's really few things funnier than two people--polar opposites on the gamer age spectrum, no doubt--arguing over who would get killed, if shot. Another thread about why gamers have gotten a bad rap among the straights is a close second, of course. ID this quote: "Of course...

    What innate power would you choose?

    Unless I've already got it. Which I do.

    DM / Player problems

    Funny...your player sounds more reasonable than the 3.5 rules, from a common-sense standpoint. (Too bad 3.5 is a set of rules-by-committee designed to keep geeks from arguing, rather than a system to simulate anything non-gamers would recognize as common-sensical.) But anyway...maybe "How are...

    Sounds like a blessing to me. Mmmmmm, silky.

    What innate power would you choose?

    Threads like this are responsible for countless negative gamer stereotypes. They are also evidence that stereotypes got that way for a reason. I choose DR 500/-

    DM / Player problems

    I'll agree also with Thanee and Arnwyn...some description to the effect of, "Though the hideous reptilian aberration was there only a second ago, your blade passes through empty air as the beast is actually a foot to the left!" is absolutely necessary. Otherwise it's the players rolling...

    Range of Miniatures

    Let's see...haven't done an actual count of my minis in a while. Oldest of mine are early-80s Grenadier. Call of Cthulhu boxed sets of monsters and investigators, lots of blisters. Got the two original Gamma World boxes as well. That's about 100 minis. Around 100 moderns, mostly mid-90s Ral...

    Can you do better than "Urbanus"?

    How about Civitas? civitas -atis f.: abstr. , [citizenship]; concr., [a union of citizens, state, commonwealth; the inhabitants of a city, townsfolk; (rarely) a city, town]. City t'ain't nothin without the people what live there.

    Name the most evil character you've ever read/watched! [possible spoilers]

    Name the most evil character you've ever read/watched! [possible spoilers]

    Mr. and Mrs. Twit, from The Twits, by Roald Dahl. Man, those are some evil, nasty, repulsive people. This is them with their heads stuck in glue: The story of how a family of trained monkeys gets them to that point is worth a read or three.

    So when does the new server get hooked up?

    Ay yo trip, the new server gets mad props fo shizzle. Way to show and prove, PC. (Couple years behind, Umbran. :D )

    What's your screenname mean?

    Thomas Cashel Fitzmaurice O'Boyle O'Flynn is a minor character in James Joyce's Ulysses, but it was way too long for the User Name field.

    Do you still buy metal minis?

    Go Metallo Power, Go!

    We have to do this more often. Thanks everyone, for all the great ideas!

    Help! Cthulu needed!

    Arrgh! Mark!, sorry if that sounded snotty. We need an "It's My Favorite Game, I'm an Editor, and fatherhood may be driving me slowly insane" emoticon around here. ;) But I do think that spelling is of paramount importance to great elder gods and, I would venture, most other gods and goddesses...

    So when does the new server get hooked up?

    Cool! I don't understand it either, but the fact that those who do are excited seems vaguely exciting.

    So when does the new server get hooked up?

    Looking forward to speedy uploads! So...when does the new hardware get to churning?

    Describe your NEXT game session!

    I'm home with the baby three days a week. Life is good...I've got time to spend with my son, and stacks of D20 Modern books around the computer for creating NPCs while he sleeps. Down side: the next session I'm going to run will be in March of 2005. Painful if you dwell on it. Link in sig's got...
