An exception to this rule is "unless you can get a computer to do it." I have a nosy bunch of players that love to investigate a town, so I took Jamis Buck's NPC generator, generated 1000 NPCs, printed them in 8pt font and have them as town reference. Yes, more NPCs than I will ever possibly...

I just flip randomly from page to page...sometimes reading backwards to see if I can figure out what the sentence/paragraph is supposed to say. :o

j/c, What would you rate as the best rpg story? thanks, -D

I really enjoyed it -- as everyone stated, the teaser and intro were completely from left field. Wouldn't it be cool if they *had* Kirk on the ship -- cgi, TOS clip or *gasp* Shatner himself (I have a feeling they didn't do any of this since it hasn't been leaked already.) Because he was on...

Rats! I'm just seeing this thread for the first time! :( !! What did I miss so far? What books were on sale 1st and 2nd week? (I missed Aasimar and Tiefling, didn't I :] ) Are the current books listed 3.5 or 3.0? Thanks, -D

No one wants to go back to the tavern with tales about being sucker-punched by the town hobo! The last time this whole thing cheesed me off (as I complained about here) was the BEG started his "Haha! You fools -- let me tell you how my zombie army...." The party went "Feh, let's just kill...

As others have mentioned, I have a timeline, xp progression, and events of the major BBEG NPCs that happen "off-camera." I then flood the campaign with potential plots that the characters may or may not pick up on --- legends of a lone undead creature roaming the south road, rumors about the...

I was just thinking about this too -- I'm running an off-the-shelf module where the BBEG was, at last, to explain the loose ends of his dastardly plan to the characters, but they just interupted him and went right to combat. :confused: Sure, the dastardly-plan-speech is cliche' but now I have...

This is exactly the way we went -- named our daughter Gwendolyn/Gwen. Sometimes I'll call her Gwenyfar, her mother sometimes calls her Gwennie. And only my best friend guessed why the name came to my mind ... "Hey, wasn't that Peter Parker's first girlfriend?" :) -D

Argh!! That's what I keep asking --- -when is it out????

Stop taunting me! When I get this from rpgnow/drivethru?

Kiefer Sutherland in "Flatliners." Opening line, I think.

It's all in the context --- one of my worst childhood memories is my last spanking; though the actual story is funny. My brother was teasing me like crazy ... he brought me to tears and made fun of me crying on top of whatever he was teasing me about. I could think of nothing to say .... so I...

For my 2 coppers (before this thread is sunk into the sea) ... It's all in the delivery --- when my parents hit, they were usually angry. When they grounded, they were calm and methodical and passing sentence. I knew a fellow who spanked his kids but said he always did it calmly ... sent them...

Don't know about others, but I don't remember my groundings .... they were just a fact of life, happened to friends, didn't really phase us. But I remember every spanking. And the one time my father hit me is one of the few memories that is permanently imprinted. I think good memories of...

Playing D&D is much like acting -- you take up a role of 1 person (if you're a player) or multiple (if you're DM). You should look upon it as good DM'ing that you could go beyond yourself and act out a ruffian seamlessly. If you didn't, then you would be applying your personal RL alignment...

My guess is that while we pronounce Quixote in the Spanish pronunciation (as it's a proper name), quixotic is a made-up english word that is pronounced in the made-up english sense. Like Celtic is pronounce "kel-tic" when used to describe the culture but "Sel-tic" when used to describe the...

Priceless quote .... (assuming these kids you mention are over 18. :] )

That's why I'm here! :] Congrats Darth and to the Dark Side....
