Generally speaking BG, I think you have made an excellent assessment of case work, and use some excellent techniques in how you handle such situations. Especially the ones I highlighted/made bold above. I'm a former PI myself (and man just tonight I was thinking about how much I miss it) and...

I don't think I've ever played a video or computer game where I could be evil. I don't think I have any. I have played games, like Metal Gear, or Splinter Cell, or Deus Ex, where I could make moral decision in various shades of gray. For instance in Splinter Cell or Metal Gear, if I can...

We rarely play on Halloween, and sometimes now rarely get to play. But every Halloween (sometime within the week of the actual date) when we can play I run Caer Sidi. Caer Sidi is an underwater city/complex that rises off the coast of the Isle of Wight and is above the waves for the night...

War is good in-game (RPGs) when: 1. the characters have a direct stake in the outcome 2. characters can directly affect the outcome 3. the characters can engage in the war at several levels (leadership, combat, espionage, diplomacy, training, etc.) 4. it will dramatically change, for...

I've never used the Drow in D&D, and don't much care for the race as a monster group. They just don't interest me, but not for sake of appearance. Just the whole spider worship, dumb culture thing to me. But if I'm not mistaken they have black skin and long, straight white hair, right...

(Elven Magic User) Aesir AeroleØn - Aesir's paternal grandfather was a famous Mage who disappeared after returning from an underground complex at the Ruins of Gauvyrna Cirque. Aesir grew up hearing vague but fascinating stories of his grandfather from strangers, but no-one in his family...

1. I'd make much better use of technology for gaming purposes (and designs), whether that be board games, RPGs, wargames, PRGs, etc. About the only fields where technology is properly exploited for games is electronic and on-line games. 2. I'd redefine and redesign adventure modules...

They do if Master orders them too. But they usually find a way to sneak back out and cause trouble again. Let's See what Monte's Cooking I'd like a 5 that isn't 4 Or 3 + 4 (that's Seven), And 4 + 1 just wouldn't work Come water high as heaven, I'd like to see if something new Would be...

As for me, this is what I'd do. Though it too may end up being more than 3 things. And of course I know the technology is still in the infant-stage, very primitive, and as yet wholly undeveloped compared to the possibilities. And you'll also need input and output devices, and computers...

How do you categorize or classify the activities you engage in life? I've often wondered how others categorize the activities they undertake in life, how they classify them, and exactly what types of activities they engage in. I classify the activities I engage in as being of Four...

You have the vision for whatever you wanna have the vision for. Don't sell your potential short. By the way it can be as realistic, or not, as you prefer. Many visions start out very unrealistic, and become so over time. Interesting that most of you are listing things you don't like about the...

What three things would you do to make gaming more interesting?

What three things would you do to make the world wide web/internet more interesting?

I also recently re-read some Conan and enjoyed them very much. As for me: Faction (Non-fiction) My Inventions - the Autobiography of Nikola Tesla The Great American Awakening - by Jim DeMint. Jim's a friend of mine and I'm looking forward to reading this. I meant to last month...

Oh, and I'm taping and watching Battlestar Galactica, which I like even better this time around than the first time. And I still miss Lost. One of the few shows I ever watched that I actually looked forwards to seeing every week.

I've got to where I record all the shows I'm interested in watching and watch them on Friday nights, or Saturday, or Sunday night. That said this is what I'm liking. Strike Back - yeah the level of cursing borders on the ridiculous and juvenile, but the stories and missions are just...

I wouldn't call this a superpower by any mans, and it's partially a trained set of abilities. But I can go days without sleep of any kind, and with very little food or drink, often without much loss of concentration or focus. Though if I go 3 days or so without sleep I'll get a constant dull...

Done, and it looks like your count is getting quite high now. Good luck.

A few weeks back my Great Dane-Saint Bernard hybrid, whom I had bred in an experiment (insert laugh here, but true nonetheless - I just didn't use any of my own DNA), became very sick. The vet didn't seem to know what it was, his appetite disappeared, he seemed to have anorexia, and he was...

By far to me the best best resources for both world and adventure building are real world history, myth, religions, cultures, languages, etc.
