    Og: Unearthed

    Please tell me at least one of you would consider running this at GenCon. Crothian, we never did finish off that pbp Og game via the Hive, did we?

    BSG Saturday Evening

    It can't possibly be any shoutier than the last time I played it. BSG is an awesome boardgame, and I'd love to play. Plus, with my British accent you're all going to assume I'm a villain anyway...

    GenCon Noobies Game

    Avoiding the mad rush on the first day of the dealers hall sounds like a brilliant idea to me.

    Neptune's Pride

    Neptune's Pride This is an awesome browser game I've been playing. However, rather than me try and explain it, let me turn you over to the good people of Rock, Paper, Shotgun and their game diary: The Complete Pride And Falls | Rock, Paper, Shotgun In short, it's a slow-burning...

    Damn - that was supposed to be a new thread in a different forum. Sorry.

    From the ashes will rise a new Hivemind.

    Hey, congratulations! For those that like goths, please find a selection of photos from a London club I went to recently for a friends birthday here. The guy in the black t-shirt holding a pint of beer in this pic is me, and that's my friend Jeanette next to me.

    From the ashes will rise a new Hivemind.

    That is a very cute pic. I finished Mass Effect 2 last night. Frickin' awesome. In fact so awesome I immediately started playing it again with a new character but aiming to play in a different way, just because I wanted to experience it again. Kind of like how sometimes you leave a movie and...

    What are you playing that is NOT D&D?

    I'm playing in one game of D&D4e at the moment (see the Swordlands Story hour, link in sig!). Apart from that: Savage Worlds - Hellfrost setting (once a week) Warhammer 40K: Rogue Trader (mini-campaign, probably ending next week) Shadowrun (mini-campaign, starting in a few weeks time) D&D3.5...

    From the ashes will rise a new Hivemind.

    I don't think that symbol is confusing at all, and I think it's very useful to see if you're a) in a non-English speaking country or b) a non-English speaker in an English-speaking country. That said, we use it in the UK everywhere. Also - you wouldn't use that symbol anywhere outside! It's a...

    How do you express yourself as a gamer?

    I openly talk about it, in addition to wearing gaming and geek t-shirts.

    The Swordlands - updated 28th May; The Hanged Man

    The Vampires of Skeinwald The party leave the cave and emerge on a hillside overlooking the whaling port of Skeinwael. There seems to have been a battle here but now the town is deserted, not even a single corpse lies in the streets where blood stains the cobblestones and weapons lie discarded...

    Mass Effect Game - Friday 9am - 1pm ONE SPACE LEFT

    Hi all, Firstly, let me offer my apologies. I said I would be running an Esoterrorists game earlier in the year when I was much more enthused about it. It's not that I think it's a bad game, but it doesn't suit my GMing style and I didn't have that good a time running it previously. So - game...

    From the ashes will rise a new Hivemind.

    I watched Dexter season 1 and 2, but missed out on anything further. Brilliant series, though. On another note, today I purchased Beatles Rock Band including drums, guitar and microphone for £50. I am very excited and can't wait to get it home and set up.

    Gencon 2010?

    Another first-timer here! Badge puchased, flights and hotel to come at the end of the month when I've been paid again. :) I know there is a GenCon forum set up within General Discussion for ENWorld games. I'm planning on running one, maybe two games and generally enjoying meeting people. Not...

    Why all the ritual hate?

    I like rituals, a lot. I think the thinking behind them was excellent and I think they're potentially a really great part of 4e. What I DON'T like is that in all the published adventures I've read (H1 - H3, P1 - P3, Scales of War) they're barely mentioned. To me, it feels like I have no real...

    From the ashes will rise a new Hivemind.

    Today I played on my Xbox 360. And lo, it was awesome. Mass Effect 2 has an insanely detailed world behind it (and I'm struggling a bit with the combat, but that'll come) and Bioshock 2 is insanely atmospheric (although I'm struggling a bit with the combat). Clearly, I am out of touch and need...
