Thanks for your suggestions all! I'm certainly looking into it (y)(y)

Hi all, not sure if I'm going against forum rules here, if so, please let me know I have a TSR silver anniversary collector's edition that I want to part ways with. I was hoping someone could point me to a marketplace to do that. Looking at somethin somewhat more targeted than ebay or amazon...

Haha, nice one :) I ended up with Traveller after 3 questions, which is correct ;) The path down medieval fantasy was more interesting, I arrived at some choices I didn't know yet. This is certainly going to show up in my links-of-the-week post :cool:

Great book I wrote a review for this book on my blog. Super short summary: I really liked the book. I'n not a 4E-player, but still I got a lot from this book for my own campaigns. I can really recommend it.

Attention span, man! I voted for 3 and 4 hours. Usually our sessions last about 3.5 hours. We're playing on friday nights, and everybody is tired of the week's work. I find as a DM that my own attention span as well as that of the group is 3 to 3,5 hours max in these circumstances. Also I...

Mixed feelings We are currently playing 2 2nd edition campaigns after many years of 3rd edition. Our experience is that it takes a lot of adjustment to 2nd edition mechanics. I'm not sure what to think of it. On the one hand I feel the NWP's as inflexible, arbitrary and an odd-duckling within...

Never. Seen a lot on character sheets, but the thill of actually see one getting rolled.... I'm saving that one for a rainy day :)

Several, including the following: 1. Teenage mutant ninja turtles (have a big stack of books, but unplayed as of yet) 2. D20 modern: i'd love a cyberpunk campaign, but i never was really fond of the cyberpunk2020 rules. (let alone the fact that it almost is 2020) 3. Army ants 2nd edition: we...

No children myself, but friends that introduced me to roleplaying, now about 20 years ago, learned to play from their fathers who were a party in the late seventies, early eighties... At least so the story goes :) there might be some revisionist history going on :)

I once played in a medieval campaign in which we only had humans, very low magic, etc. I liked it a lot for a change. I didnt feel limited at all

Many thanks, oh nocturnal rodent! You Will be followed :)

A vote for iPhone from me. I have an iPhone and love a lot of features of it. Personally I really like the virtual keyboard. also scrolling, zomming etc. gives a very smooth feel. It's almost as if you can feel the webpages under your fingers. I really, really like the applications on the...

Thanks Sir Brennen! I've taken some of your sugestions for my own following list. Any other takers?

The Netherlands won gold on a snowboard event. Funny thing is, it was the first ever (gold? ) medal won in the winter olympics not for speedscating. At least that's what they told on Dutch television.

true, true... I always have thought this option was possible. I even once caught my cat laughing when I started to sing :lol:

Congratulations! Always nice to get something back for your hard work (that is, I assume you've worked hard for it, right ;) )

I watched the key note last night. very interesting and inspiring talk. I wish I had his job! ;)

Exactly, and back then DnD was hugely popular (within certain cohorts ;)). Back then people also could do math, as they can now, only the perception and perhaps expectations were different than the mentality that you seem to outline. I find the cliche it's more art than science applicable. In...

Personally, I like the HP mechanism. I like the abstractness of the mechanism, with HPs representing nothing really other than "how long does it take before I drop down". All attempts I have seen that try to make stuff more "realistic" do not have the feel and flair to me as HPs have.

Hi all, I was wondering which Twitter accounts people follow which are RPG-related. Currently I only have: * Wizards_DnD * MonteJCook * Morrus * ENnies Any other reccomendations?
