    That sounds good to me. I'll volunteer to keep the "list" of people who want to be on the selection list. Once I get a handful of names, I'll randomly select someone and they can choose the book for that month. August 15th sounds good for this. So, if you have any interest in being involved...

    Dawn finds Tharl riding over the Old Bridge. As he approaches the stables next to the inn, he notices his two travelling companions saddled up and ready to ride. Riding up to Chen & Kaijia, he salutes them and turns to head towards Karatsu. Looking back once to make sure the two Middle...

    That's in line with what I was thinking. I agree that we shouldn't be looking at "Wheel of Time" type series, though some shorter series might make sense. These are all things we can talk about. The Locus Award site is a great link. Thanks. So, there's at least some interest for this...

    "Well then," says Grunlor as he looks about the room. "I only have the acquaintance of one other member of this 'Group', but will sign on for this search for your gem. This has been brought upon you as a result of your efforts to stop theiving goblin-friends. I intend to restore your property...

    EN World Book Club

    How 'bout an "editorial board" of 4-6 members that select the books? The board will be a rotating position, so that every [2]? books a person leaves and a new person is "appointed" to the board. This still leaves the "how do people get appointed to the editorial board" question. I suppose we...

    OK. So, Oprah has one, the Today Show has one, Rosie :mad: had one. Throwing this out for dicussion. Should we start an EN World Book Club? You know, where a group of people agree to read a book by a certain date, and then you spend some time discussing it. Proposal: Start an EN World Book Club...

    [NJ, DE, PA and even VA, NY and all points East!] Shorecon [ENworld gathering]

    Posted the question on the Keoland list. Seems like they're working on some pre-reg system for the RPGA stuff. Just checked the ShoreCon website. There's two RPGA events listed (both Living Arcanis). I guess more will be posted as people sign up to GM.

    Re: Re-Enter Melian "Ahem. Master Melian. Before we discuss working as a team, I wish to understand futher why this gem is so valuable to you. As you readily admit, one can purchase an item with the same properties at a cost much less than what you are willing to pay." (OOC: Grunlor uses...

    Kore | Kingdom of Harmony | IC

    Tharl studies these two and quickly decides that though foreign, they are not untrustworthy. He will give them a fair opportunity to prove their mettle. "May your battle-arm be strong and may you never tire during a fight" Tharl says, invoking a tradtional blessing upon the two newcomer. "I...

    Kore | Kingdom of Harmony | IC

    Tharl reads the Agreement once again. I would take this task on for the honor alone. I will prove to Priest Ito (and to that unbeliver Oshii) that the masterless can find the way of honor, though they may need some assistance in locating the path. Tharl heads towards the Merchant Quarter to...

    Not With a Bang, I: Its Own Reward

    Grunlor sits at his table alone, sipping his ale and watching the commotion going on around drunken Nojin. His eyes gleaming, he wonders if this ragtag group is going to wait for this Melian and his commission. And if they do, is this the sign from Telenn I have been waiting for? They don't...

    D&D Clue

    Is there any real D&D element in the game? Or are the characters, weapons & rooms simply replaced with "D&D-esque" versions?

    Was that really a Living Greyhawk module, or was it one of the RPGA "Classic" events?

    Does anyone know how event registration works for RPGA events? There isn't any RPGA events on the ShoreCon website. Is it just show up at the mustering area at the appropriate time and hope they have enough judges?

    How do you calculate XP?

    Again, I wasn't looking to come down on anyone. This is a game we play, and we are doing it for fun, so I'm with you on the "We're here to have fun" theory. Just wondering if it's "fair" to give the guy who brings the snacks each week an "in-game" benefit. If your group has no problem with it...

    How do you calculate XP?

    Not looking to criticize anybody for the way they do things, but do you think it's appropriate to give out XP for Snacks, Props & Humor? I know that they help the game out and all, and make it more fun, but should that player's character advance faster because of it? I can see more XP for...

    Not With a Bang, I: Its Own Reward

    After repeated (and unsuccessful) attempts to get Nojin to discuss his brother's fate, a soggy Grunlor moves away from Nojin. Grabbing a towel at the end of the bar to dry himself off with, he strides over to where the announcement is posted. As he walks across the common room, Grunlor notices...
