    Wanting to move to new gaming city

    Umm... where were you when I lived there??? Oh i see... middle TN... well I lived in Memphis for about 18 months and hated it... worst place in America, IMO. I've lived in/around 3 major cities in my 28 years... Cleveland, Memphis, and Seattle. But to answer your question I wouldn't move to...

    West Wing = TV at its best

    Well this thread has taken an unfortuate turn... No matter what you think of the show's message... whether Sorkin's drug use helped his writing or not... I was saying that this past epsoide was arguably the best of the season. The show's not for everybody and its not fantasy or sci-fi but I...

    West Wing = TV at its best

    I know its not fantasy or sci-fi but just had to say that tonite's epsisode (3/24/2004) of West Wing reinforced to me how wonderful the show is. I must say at least one time per show, "Man this show is great" out loud. Even if no one is around. One of the few things worth watching besides Home...

    Ideas for Burial Offerings for important NPC

    Krieg: I knew someone here would understand what I was looking for. D+1: I never meant this to become a discussion on "alien sociological takes on death" but thanks for the reply. The last paragraph was very helpful, seriously. Mark: I don't know quite what to say. I didn't mean to "vex" you...

    Ideas for Burial Offerings for important NPC

    every generation or so... so 20 years sounds about right... I wasn't expecting many questions... I guess I didn't explain this in the right manner... I was hoping to get a few ideas as to what an elf would bring to a funeral as an offering no matter who it was as long as they qualified for...

    Ideas for Burial Offerings for important NPC

    I didn't say anything about the NPC on purpose... the focus in on the PCs not the NPC - as it should be... It's also about the races they represent. The tradition wouldn't be about modifying the offerings to fit the departed instead every one who "qualifies" for this ceremony receives A, B, and...

    Ideas for Burial Offerings for important NPC

    Let's say an important NPC died... well-respected among all races. And there's a long-standing tradition that each race sends an ambassador to attend. Assuming its a standard D&D world... What would an elf, dwarf and human bring??? What fits??? Anyone out there do anything similar???

    Alternating Campaigns -- one group, two (or more) campaigns

    Ever since 3.0 was released, and no matter the group, I've alternated. I think its vital to keep things fresh. Depending on how often you play... I've found the ideal setup is two weeks (campaign A) two weeks (campaign B). Also one game D&D based and the other not also helps. It provides a clear...

    Starting New Campaign (Need Ideas)

    Well even tho this is fairly obvious, the PCs might be encouraged to learn what's happened to their familes or interests during last 15 years. Time went on and so would have the beautiful village girl who was involved with one of the PCs... now she's married to the PC's nemesis. Also you could...

    Rich Redman on being a good forum denizen

    Agreed... but the problem with that is nearly everyone will say/feel that their posting habits are ok for the problem lies with everyone else... Here's where I could say cliches like glass houses, and look in the mirror... but instead I'll just go read that post now :)

    So, where do you game?

    My group, recently recreated, is planning to play at the home of whomever is DMing... So that's me when I run my homebrew D&D and the home of another player when he starts his d20 mecha game. Both places have good size dining rooms with tables large enough to support 6 people.

    Looking for players in Lorain County area of Ohio

    I'm looking for 1 more player. That would gives us 5 players plus the DM which I think is the perfect size for a group... given that people can and do miss sessions and that keeps the group viable. We're beginning on Sat the 27th. I hope there's someone out looking to join a group. Drop me an...

    Alternate Ability Score Generation by Rolling

    I've used a method that been somewhat mentioned here... In the past, I've had players conduct what I've labled a notecard draft. I have each attribute in a seperate piles and depending on the number of players I create the spectrum of numbers I need. Using 4 players as an example: I would...

    Yeah... the standard races will be present... except half-orcs... still juggling around some ideas for different races I may allow into the game... And I do have a gladiator-flavor present in certain cities.

    Help in preparing for a new campaign

    Good day everyone, I'm looking for enworlders to maybe give me some ideas what my players might expect and/or what you'd like to see in the following campaign idea. Basically, I have this world I've used in the past and will be here again in the upcoming weeks. Its pretty much Planet of the...

    Classic Campaign Starts?

    let's see... I've done or seen the following startups that didn't include a tavern --captured, very little memory of the last week... middle of nowhere --at a king's banquet in honor of the eventual BBEG --at a Coliseum-style annual event but the best and most fun had was... --about each half...

    It's official. My D&D group has dissolved.

    It's very frustrating. I understand when real-life issues come up but when a group dissolves without notice or very little feedback it... well stings. Not responding to emails is not a classy move by your, I guess now, former players. I've been lucky enough to form/join a number of groups in...
