    Not With a Bang, I: Its Own Reward

    Grunlor Somewhat shaken, Grunlor tells his companions: "Telenn has graced me with the sight that these goblins are on the path towards redemption and are followers of the light. I suppose that lends creedence to Arins' story, though simply because the goblins are trying to redeem themselves...

    [EN World Book Club] Suggestions & Selectors

    More than happy to share. Consider me flattered. With that in mind, I'm going to post my selection. I may get a lot of flak on this one, but the book is "next" on my personal reading list, so it fits in well (at least timing wise). I'm choosing Eragon by Christopher Paolini. You can find...

    I'll make the Tigana change now. Didn't realize it had gotten switched like that. The first link in the sig should point to this thread. Thanks for the heads up.

    [EN World Book Club] Suggestions & Selectors

    Thanks for reposting the relevant info. I guess I misunderstood your original intent. I thought the six week reading period would begin after the discussion period ended. I'd rather have a six week total period rather than an 8 week period. If there are no major objections to this, I...

    [EN World Book Club] Suggestions & Selectors

    Thanks for the vote of support. As for the overlap, I'm fine with doing it that way. It was suggested early on by Cthulhu's Librarian I think (I'm too lazy to look back at the beginning of the discussions) to have a six week reading period which wouldn't start until the discussion of the...

    [EN World Book Club] Suggestions & Selectors

    Just a reminder that discussion will start on Pattern Recognition on January 1, 2004. Also, just as an FYI, I'm going to choose the next selection. Discussion on that will be around March 1. I will post my selection around the first of the year. Question for participants: What is your...

    Not With a Bang, I: Its Own Reward

    [OOC: If there were an in game mechanism, Grunlor would. He is definitely torn between doing nothing and beleiving Arnis. I don't think that there is a way for a first level paladin to peform any type of Communing though.]

    Not With a Bang, I: Its Own Reward

    Grunlor "I must admit that this situation confounds me. Melian says that Arnis and is troupe are thieves, Arnis says that Melian is a liar and a murderer. Neither seemed to be evil to me. Arnis says that Melian has some magical device to shield his 'true nature' from view by those with the...

    How are you going to introduce your kids to gaming, if at all?

    I've got three kids (11 & 4 year old girls, and an 8 year old boy). The two older ones like to play. We play in a simple setting where they are in a school (think Hogwarts) for adventurers and get sent on missions through magical doors (portals) to various dungeons and areas throughout the...

    Not With a Bang OOC

    It's really up to Lazarus here, but Protection from Evil/Good/Chaos/Law is listed as 4 different spells in the PHB. Contrast that to Endure Elements or Protection from Elements, where you choose what element you are protecting yourself from at the time of casting.

    Not With a Bang OOC

    It's the one in Cherry Hill, NJ. ShoreCon 2003 was held in the hotel that the pub is in. We held an "EN World Gathering" in the pub. Lots of fun.

    Not With a Bang, I: Its Own Reward

    Grunlor "And why should we believe you over Melian? He said this gem was a family heirloom that went back 10 generations. You say he's lying, and killing. Yet I sensed no evil in him." Grunlor sips his tea and continues, "Perhaps you should explain what you mean by all this, and who these...

    Not With a Bang, I: Its Own Reward

    Grunlor "I agree with Baril." adds Grunlor, nodding. "Melian asked us to retreive a stolen gem. You agree that the gem is not yours. Why would we dishonor ourselves and become accomplices in your theft?"

    I signed up for superuser.net last night. Did the cheapest program, which was $47.40 for one year, including domain name registration. Unlimited POP accounts, 500mb disk space and 12gigs a month bandwith. The domain name registration hasn't taken effect yet, but the account was activated by...

    Grunlor accepts the tea, but before drinking, again casts a discerning gaze at the people in the room, searching for the corrupting radiance of evil.

    Thanks for the suggestions. I'll check them all out when I get home tonight. Question from a newbie: Do they do the whole domain name registration and everything? Is it as simple as signing up online, telling them what domain name I want (and assuming it's available) and then I'm up and running?

    I'm so totally tired of the email support being provided by my ISP (Optimum Online). I'm at the point where I want more than 4 mailboxes, and basic spam protection would be nice. If I had the ability, I'd eventually get around to moving my tripod page my own domain too. Anyone have any...
