    Fifa World Cup 2010

    The home team is in a world (cup) of hurt. I'm hoping Mexico knocks out France.

    Fixes for Mage: Sorcerer's Crusade magic?

    I've played in a gameday one-shot game with this type of scenario that used the Ars Magica ruleset (one of the Atlas editions) with great success.

    Twitter and D&D - How I came to love this combo

    I'll see your "largely about connecting to people from your past" and raise you a "checking the obits for older cousins." :o

    Fifa World Cup 2010

    Sometimes when I am out at a store I will see a child with his mother. The child might be told he is not going to be getting a toy or his favorite candy on this particular trip. This triggers a reaction in the child where he will go completely limp, like his body has suddenly ceased to...

    Where Did All The Girls Go?

    Epic, indeed. That's one of the lengthiest blog posts I have seen yet on the Internet. I bow to your virtual longwindedness. As to its controversiality, I think there are a lot more women gaming then is generally known, in part because of the potentially anonymous nature of the Internet and...

    Combining Forums

    It might be worthwhile to combine the - Board Games & CCGs - EN World D&D / RPG News - with the "General RPG Discussion" forum and make it the "General Game Discussion" forum. Miniature gaming and wargaming, sometimes as an extension of RPGing, seem to get discussed in the general forum often...

    I stink at winging it- HELP!

    I encourage anyone in a large metropolitain area to keep their ear to the ground regarding a free improv class. Many places that have improv class programs will have a recurring single seminar or class that is either cheap or free as a way of letting people check out what they teach and how...

    Twitter and D&D - How I came to love this combo

    That's just what old folks think. :D It's my impression that Facebook idealistically empowers individuals to create a personal virtual location with an interactive web presence for everyone to experience. Similarly, I believe that Twitter is a selective listening device that allows others to...

    What demands would the Fairy Queen make?

    She could demand a "Shrubbery" but that could turn out to be the name of a Shambling Mound large enough to be an appropriate combat encounter.

    license terms of some old WotC content? like Moster Mayhem and some reviews...

    Please clarify your question. Only WotC knows if they will license any of the IP to someone. Is that the gist of your post?

    Goodman Games new old school RPG shown at Dundracon

    Indeed. :D My concern with any retro-themed game is not making it highly lethal just by outmatching the PCs. (Not saying that is the case here, as I haven't seen the rules yet.) In the early 3.x days there was a rash of so-called meat-grinder adventures that were merely mislabeled for the...

    Stanley Cup 2010

    The diehard Cubs fans believe it will happen every year, up to a point. At that point, they begin to say "Wait til next year."

    This Weekend @ the Boxoffice: 2010.Jun.14

    The heat probably put a few butts into seats. Fortunately, I had a gameday to attend so I didn't get tempted. I like Jackie Chan and Liam Neeson, though, and am always happy to hear of their success.
