By "scroll right" do you mean "scroll to the right" or "scroll properly"? Does the cursor look like a circle with an up and down arrow? Try Edit->Preferences and look for "Autoscrolling". Turn it off. Did that fix it? A tip for you: upgrade to Firefox. It's the same code base as Netscape 7...

http://www.google.com/search?q=clear%20google%20history Unfortunately, you'll probably nuke your forms.

Nightcloak, would you mind terribly if I posted your GM's Notebook article on the Treasure Tables GMing Wiki?

Do you have a scanner? It probably came with some OCR software. ABBY FinePrint (?) and Omnipage are two OCR programs. Test them out and see how they work. If it looks workable, go ahead and try it. Most OCR programs are at least acceptably good. They'll probably get 95% of the document right...

It's slightly different. There are maybe a dozen ways to improve your AC. There is ONE way to overcome magic damage reduction. My primary objection to it is limitation of choice. When I first saw the Sure Striking ability in 3.0 (Sword and Fist?) I said "Thank god! Now I can stop dumping my...

One place now (#3), or two if you consider the sunder ruling incorrect. Really blatant errors (like the monk/gauntlet thing) will get fixed in the next version anyway, so let's split the difference and count item #1 as half an error. And let's average 6 answers per page for about 70 pages of...

That is a very outdated FAQ entry. It's been over 17 months! This has been corrected and is no longer in the current FAQ. It was probably removed in the very next version. A DC 35 Tumble check to stand from prone as a free action DOES provoke an AoO. This is nonsensical. "Two-handed" is not a...

The main reason I like the "x/magic" version of DR is that it means I'm not forced to take a +5 weapon as soon as possible. Those extra plusses are nice, but special abilities are nice too. If you have DR the old 3.0 way (similar to your suggestion), you're essentially forcing characters to...

For my next game, I've actually made a list of some house rules. Normally my group doesn't use them, except for a few basic ones (die at -Con, not -10; ignore multiclass XP penalties, fractional BAB and saves), but I want my next game to have a different feel to it. I'm upping everyone's skill...

I just found a very nice excel based treasure generator called Lute. I don't have a link, but I'm sure you can find it with Google. There was also an excel character sheet caled Tympani (?). Both are shareware, but fully functional.

As you can see here, Immediate and swift actions are OGC and part of the SRD, so they are integrated. http://www.d20srd.org/srd/combat/actionsInCombat.htm#immediateActions

I'm curious as to how you plan to do this. It seems to me that the vast majority of abusable combos are simply poorly writen feats/spells/abilities that don't take other specific pre-existing feats/spells/abilities into consideration. For instance, you don't see a lot of badly broken combos that...

One thing I would like people to do: Tell me what they want to achieve, not necessarily how they want to do it. I once had a player standing inside a vendor's kiosk while giant apes were attacking. Player: <Thinking for a bit> Is there a wheeled cart here? Me: Huh? Um, no. Player: <Thinks some...

Egg timer. Someone is taking too long, whip out the (1 minute or 30 second) egg timer. If they don't pick something by the time it runs out, they hold their action until they do decide. Someone else mentioned writing up a cheat sheet of the character's options. That's a great tip for...

Quoted for truth. Good tips. A simple fix: schedule the game half an hour earlier. Expect to start half an hour late. Here's the best tip of all: Communicate. Tell your players what you think the problem is and how you would like things to be. Be up front and as clear as possible. Don't blame...

Also, what versions of MySQL (or other db) and PHP? And does you host handle that stuff, or you?

So, how about that new stat block you promised?

Haven't picked up SX yet, but I will soon. For some further info, in the novel Tales of the Last War, there is a story involving warforged, quori and a giant ("War Machines -- 992 YK" by Ian Burton-Oakes). The giant says explicitly that the quori first created the warforged, but that they...

I think he meant that he was going to post a more complete FORMAT, not reprint stat blocks. Anyway, he's completely within his rights to reprint any OGC in any stat block form he wants.

Oh, one last thing. When calculating BAB and saves, make sure that you use the PROGRESSION (ie good, fair, poor) not the actual number listed for that class level. That will make sure that all your values are calculated correctly. (Alternately, use the fractional BAB and save system from UA...
