And ........ 3 more! Oh, Gary my Gary. Lvl 20 and counting.

There is very little in this life that is truly impossible. Being a scientist, I went back to my physics texts and checked very carefully. Unity in D&D does not violate any known universal law or principle on the order of Conservation of Energy. So no ... not impossible. Keep the faith.

Rats! I forgot. I, also, played a Half Giant. It was fun. Very stompy.

I would love to have given you XP, just for that image. But ... you know ... "You must give" and all that.

Positive, if only because "negative" is a lousy way to live your life. A lot of people have developed an impressive amount of scar tissue since the 3e/4e Edition Wars began. We see that very clearly in this Thread. There is little indication of unreserved trust; rather, there is every...

Despite a very great deal of effort, I couldn't make myself "like" 4e -- as in make it my new, favorite game. The first time this ever happened to me since D&D began. But I am certainly no hater. I'm happy that 4e has so many vocal supporters, so many gamers that enjoy it. I will say this...

I guess I'm slightly humbled to admit I like the XP system. Of course, turn it off whenever you need to and for as long as you need to. After all, "the Board's the thing!" Still ... I was just about to XP Gary ...:D

Doesn't have to stay that way. Here in the 21st century, everything seems to be changing ... all the time. And change can be good.

I have played D&D for fun for a very long time. And all that long time, I found no particular use for "roles." I can see where it might be useful during the design phase ... but I just don't see the utility during play. So, for me, the answer is "no" -- don't want nor need roles.

Thank you. That makes perfect sense.

Happily, but I haven't seen the XP button for two days now. Not sure why.

I see it, also. For once, probably NOT my doing ... I simply don't have that kind of "power." Now, if we're talking quantum physics ... but, no.:)

No sweat -- it's been missing for me all day. I do appreciate the sentiment, however -- thank you. Hoping your gaming life improves.

Oh, yes. Most definitely. Prescience. He has it.

The sheer chutzpah of it all. The One D&D. Just think about that. Is it even possible -- even in theory? I love that they're going to try.

I am so sorry to hear this. I have a bit of the same problem, plus my work is so involving that I just don't have much free time any more. At one point, I hoped the VTT-thing might help issues like this. Perhaps it still will -- stay the course! Wishing you well, since that's all I can think...

This is what I call "Jewish Grandmother Advice." It's absolutely excellent ... but you feel awkward taking it cause it came from a Granny. Well, don't feel awkward. He's right -- just run with it. Heck, last game I played was a war-game so darned old I've NEVER had the full rule-set. And we...

Really interesting pictures. My "digs" at the Agency ... nothing like that. Rather, my workplace is a soulless plain where the damned wail in the distance ... Oh, sorry. That's Purgatory or maybe Hades. My workplace is just your normal, Dilbert-esque "zone of zero fun."

Yes, I've missed him, too. I'm glad to see him chiming in here -- and even gladder to see he has a solid job doing something exciting. I'd like to see a lot more Rouse around here.:)

Yes, yes it is. Feels pretty good, too.
