    Here in Sweden, the requirements are: In writing and on paper. Should list the assets and who gets what, ideally using that person's personal number but it's fine if you can positively identify someone in another way, like "Allan Svensson who is my neighbor". Has to be signed in your own hand...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    That's odd. Anyhow, I can't believe someone took the time out of their day to post about that instead of just going "huh" and getting on with their life.

    I don't get the arguments for bioessentialism

    I remember making an Excel character sheet for RMSS where I tried using a formula with nested IF statements to calculate skill bonuses based on rank – something like =IF(X=0;-15;IF(X<11;X*3;IF(X<21;(X-10)*2+30;IF(X<31;(X-20)+50;TRUNC((X-30)/2)+60)))), but with some additional conditionals...

    I don't get the arguments for bioessentialism

    Rolemaster had a pretty big revision in the mid-90s with Rolemaster Standard System. It was still mostly the same game, but character creation became more detailed, with skills being split into Skill Categories and actual Skills (so in RM2, you'd get 3 ranks in Broadsword for +15 on top of stat...

    I don't get the arguments for bioessentialism

    There's a Swedish game called Eon which got a new ground-up 4th edition made about a decade ago, is currently in the process of releasing a touched up 5th edition (apparently crowdfunder backers have gotten PDFs now), and is simulationist in at least parts. It has a highly detailed combat...

    Also, "pegasus" is latin. The Greek name is pegasos (or Πήγασος, I guess). And I guess the English plural would be pegasuses.

    TSR The Full & Glorious History of NuTSR

    Wouldn't surprise me if Wizards' settlement with LaNasa had a clause to the effect of "Keep our name out of your filthy mouth you degenerate", which would probably prevent him from bringing it up during the sale.

    Nothing wrong with large horny tieflings. Wait, that came out wrong... Anyway, here's the picture of a tiefling from the Forgotten Realms Campaign Setting (2001): And this is from Races of Destiny (2004): And the Planar Handbook (2004): So, quite a diverse bunch. I think the popular idea...

    I don't get the arguments for bioessentialism

    For values of "quickly" that include "14 years later." Planescape was released in 1994, and 4e where tieflings got a more-or-less similar appearance in 2008. Huh? I don't think I'd call these "ugly" per se. It's a rather distinct aesthetic, but one a lot of people appreciate. It should also be...
