    [OT] Best Ebay auction ever...

    Read the feedback on the guy who "won" the auction. He's no prize either.

    Help! Trouble at the gaming table

    A friend of mine had this exact same problem back in University. The party's thief would make off with everything. The thief would scout ahead and pocket any treasure or wait for his turn on watch to pilfer from his party mates. He always denied it. Finally my friend (whose character was...

    Your players all came up with great backgrounds. They're a very motley group so far. I look forward to seeing how they make the party work.

    In light of recent events by Avalanche Press (Company bashing not desired)

    I don't know how they can fix this situation, but they really need to correct their attitudes towards the rest of the D&D community. It's their right to decide who gets a free copy of their products for review. I would take someone off the list in their place if I felt they were giving unfair...

    Your Most Embarrassing RPG Moment

    My most embarrassing moment happened in our Scarred Lands campaign. Our party entered Khirdet (city full of evil cannibal druids) just before a big ritual sacrifice was scheduled. Our informants told us that the ceremony was going to be delayed because the craftsmen were having troubled making...

    [Slightly OT] Does sex really sell RPGs?

    I posted a semi-rant on this in the original Avalanche poll thread. I don't want cheesecake covers on RPG books. I realize the guys like looking at semi-naked chicks, but they can go buy Playboy. I want covers that give me a feel for the contents. Cheesecake makes a product look...

    Toronto Gamers! (Or Ontario Gamers) Introduce Yourself

    I'm from London. I played very briefly in grade school and didn't find a regular group until about six years ago. My fiance/DM, Holy Bovine, is originally from Belleville and he's been involved in D&D for 20 or so years. The Bov and I are planning on a trip to Toronto soon. Can you guys tell...

    In light of recent events by Avalanche Press (Company bashing not desired)

    Well stated, Fred. Mialee's Fashion Platemail thread was my first exposure to Avalanche's covers. I remember laughing in disbelief that a professional gaming company would release product with such blatantly cheesecake artwork. Twenty years ago, it wouldn't have surprised me, but I thought...

    Cant find the Jack-o-lantern/pumpkin monster

    That's great news, Boz. Our DM threw some at us last winter and freaked us all out with them. Between the jack-o-lanterns and the carnivorous trees, half the party was ready to take a level of ranger. Favoured enemy: Plants. Our chaotic insane barbarian went even further 'round the bend...

    Sagiro's Story Hour Returns (new thread started on 5/18/08)

    I was wondering how long it'd be before the simulacrums lured the Company out. Cool battle.

    FYI - My Mod-Retirement & Stuff

    I think I'm the only one who's not a admin/mod at Nutkinland now. Aside form the usual suspects in Fighting Words.;)

    "Out of the Frying Pan" - Book II: Catching the Spark (Part Two) - {complete}

    Hey, Horacio, have you checked out the song Nemmerle posted over in the Hazelnut Cafe? Pretty cool.

    Dungeons and Warhammers (updated March 17th)

    Two days for the cultist to find out somebody's stolen his stuff. They might be two long days, but they definitely won't be boring.

    [Semi-OT]Looking for a board-game type thing...

    Was the map hex-shaped or did it have hex shaped pieces? Did it have dragon attacks? If so, it might be Mighty Empires.

    Do you/have you played any non-D&D/d20 Fantasy RPGs?

    Warhammer Fantasy is the only non D&D RPG I've spent any significant amount of time playing. I've tried HackMaster. I've also played in CoC, Star Wars and Cyberpunk campaigns, but they're not really fantasy systems.
