    Worst Continuity

    Regarding Dr Who... It actually had very good continuity - until the sixth and mainly the seventh Dr. And then new episodes (which are fantastic, btw) rolled out... Only a few minor details - two explainations for the Loch Ness Monster, creative explainations for the endlessly re-occuring...

    Eddings' "The Dreamers"

    Unfortunately, The Dreamers is probably Eddings worst creation. It started as an interesting idea, and developed some interesting plots in book 2 & 3 - but never really became good. And then - well, see post above. Worst ending EVER. Ruined entire Series. How, you ask, can an ending...

    Boston - tell me all about it

    I've lived in Somerville (Boston-Cambridge-Somerville heading out of the center of the city, very roughly) for over 10 years. Great place to be in general. My wife and I are currently house hunting - and the housing market has NOSE Dived. As in: assessed for 400k+ last year, asking price is...

    Best way to handle stronghold/domain rules

    I wonder if these ideas could be stretched in a manner similiar to Birthright to create Paragon Paths or Epic Destinies. ie- 'King of Thieves' 'Overlord' etc. And some of the requirements for the path would be investing in your domain, and the powers would be more affective or varingly...

    Hulu - Watch your favorites. Anytime. For free. has all of the eps so far. Its OK - nothing brilliant yet, but I've only seen the pilot and the next ep. And I'm very curious to see where they go with the story - as MAJOR changes have already been made. Namely, the main Plot / MacGuffin of...

    D&D 4E Running player commentary on PCat's 4E Campaign - Heroic tier (finished)

    Interesting - sounds like you went with a 'Points of Dark' campaign, instead of a 'points of light'. I'll be reading with interest! Oh, and if you should happen to need a replacement player, because you know, somone won the lottery and moved to Maui, think kindly of me. :cool: Have fun! :D

    Sky One to remake Blake's 7

    Are they totally mental??? The end of that series carved a deep scar in my teenage psyche when I saw it. How the heck can they 'remake' it? It was an entertaining show, but the reason I remember it, and more than half the impact of the show came from the end.

    Babylon 5

    Thirdspace Watch thirdspace halfway through season 4, or before season 5. It has one scene which basically explains why a plot/character development Did not happen. It is a decent movie, not Great, but worth watching.

    So, I'm thinking of shrinking my party....

    Any one know which Dungeon had Chadrather's Bane in it? If I do this, I'm definately going Fae Magic. Stolen fae magic, even :) The party is a little low level for Big stuff, which is why I hesitate. If an owl = a Roc, they're toast, being level 4 or 5. Probably shrink to 1/12th size, so 6...

    So, I'm thinking of shrinking my party....

    Down to about 1-3 inches each. (exact size yet to be pinned down, will go with what is easiest and makes the most sense) Now, I know that this has been before - so I', wondering if anyone has stats for the common ordinary animals & insects, now a huge threat do to the change in size. Or, do I...

    The Aftermath: A weekly Dungeons and Dragons 3.5 campaign set 20 years After Impact Twenty years ago, a star fell from the sky, and smote the world. Darkness covered the heavens, and the oceans rose in great waves of destruction. Hundreds of thousands of beings died in the first few minutes...

    Babylon 5: Lost Tails

    Have it, watched it. Two vignettes, a pair of small, almost quiet stories with minimal interaction with known/established events, concerns or mysteries. There is a very nice tribute to G'Kar and the Doctor, both their characters and the actors. But, the sock puppets???? :uhoh:

    The most important people in the world (my players stay out)

    I Rolled a Double-Zero (100%)!

    MERP. Cirith Ungol module/region book. Wandering monster table. '00' - "OH NO, YOU MEET SHELOB" That is, if memory serves, a direct quote from the book. And since the GM rolled '00', said it out loud, looked at Shelob's stats, thought about it, and said, Nah, I don't wanna kill everyone...
