    Stupid=Not what the GM wants

    You, sir, are my hero. Excellent observation. The minute the DM realize that he knows more then one wat to do it, he becomes more open to PCs doing the same. The DM also has to be ready to create broad situations, instead of specific ones. But really, what you said is the essence of it. Very...

    ENnies - Ceramic DM Fundraiser -- Now ON SALE!

    Good choice for mine. I've always liked one of my other stories better, but that one (Words) is probably the most broadly appealing.

    Designing a "kitchen sink" world

    Well, if you want pirates fighting ninjas, imagine a real world map. Now remove North and South America, and blend the Atlantic and Pacific into one smaller ocean. Now you've got ninjas living on Islands that pirates are exploring for riches. Maybe there's even dinosaurs still living on some of...

    Revenge of the Sith DVD on November 1st

    Wow. I like the list of all the movie marathons (with running times!). Thanks, John. Now, how long would a Kurosawa Samurai movie marathon last? (Seven Samurai, Hidden Fortress, Ran, Rashamon, Yojimbo, probably several others I'm forgetting.) I'm betting I don't want to know... Just Seven...

    Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince-SPOILERS!!!!

    I'm betting Snape is a Good Guy. The early chapter where he makes the Unbreakable Oath can be read 2 ways: Either he's really working for Voldemort, and this is how he really is, or he's working for the OotP, and this is what he has to do to maintain his cover. I didn't see anything in that...

    The Scout Class: How is it in play?

    Ah yes, I should have been clearer. There is more then one target involved, and I ment to say 'more then' before '5 ft.' Sorry About that. But BSF has it right.

    [Mutants & Masterminds] Buildings: Collapsing and Damage

    The buildings will be, for the most part, evacuated, but a few remaining NPCs willbe around (and the PCs will be aware of them). I doubt the PCs will go out of their way to save the bystanders ( they have a reputation for being a bit wreckless and extreme), but it will be available. It's a large...

    So, In my weekly supers game (which will be played tomorrow night) I plan to have Gigantosaur (from Foes of Freedom) and some other super-size beasties (from the Freedom City setting, Kuiji island section) running through downtown Freedom City. Long story short, the mosters are being mind...

    Splitting the Code Base - I Need Help

    Well, if you're looking for help, I could lend a hand with PHP/SQL stuff. I've been doing a lot of coding (albeit in Perl) this summer for my job, and I think I'm now a much better coder. Not sure if I'll be up to what you need, but between a pretty in depth class on Databases I too last...

    Awesome! Thanks, I just got back to the internet after a nice weekend away, and this has really made my morning. :) A big thanks to everybody (I enjoyed reading other sonnets as much as I enjoyed writing mine).

    New Server Drive - donation and prize thread (Final total: $13,310!)

    Heh. Rodrigo's answer is soooo much simpler then mine. For some reason, I was thinking harcore database stuff, using foriegn keys, joins, etc., all that relational algebra stuff. I like his idea better. :)

    Pseudo-Ceramic DM for an ENnies nominee!

    Nope, assuming we're sticking by Ceramic DM rules. No editing. :) Makes it all the tougher. I always find at least one hole/typo/whatever that I wanted to fix right AFTER i post. So it goes.

    Pseudo-Ceramic DM for an ENnies nominee!

    Dagnabit! When I posted the competition looked nice and small. Now we've got at least 5 stories, and a few hours yet to go. Things may be tough. I have a feeling my story may not stand up well in against the like of Rodrigo and Reveal, in particular. But at least today I get to read everybody...

    Write a sonnet, win an ENnies nominee!

    I believe he is honoring all outstanding contests, he just wasn't starting any more. Just give him some time, it takes a while to undertsand the brilliance of all this great poetry. ;)

    Pseudo-Ceramic DM for an ENnies nominee!

    Tales from A Stove Pipe Hat By Sage LaTorra, a.k.a. Macbeth Jimmy stood in front of me, his chest bare in the heat of his house. "Tom, you made it! Want a popsicle?" He motioned to the fridges behind him. The refrigerators behind him hummed loud in the heat of his house. With the dozen or so...
