In theory, this problem will fix itself. That's because this whole situation, where being ignored by someone means you can't see/access their threads, is a Xenforo setting. Moreover, it's one that's happened before, and was undone later on, before somehow being switched back on. As such, I'm...

I haven't posted in it at all, that I remember, but apparently I'm blocked too. 🤷‍♂️

I just finished reading Christopher Buckley's 1994 novel Thank You for Smoking, and had quite a pleasant time doing so. Given my previous post about what I was reading, I suspect that my partaking of this novel will come as little surprise to anyone perusing this thread. Buckley's novel is...

That checks out. I found an ebay listing from mid-November for $650; there's another that's live right now with a price tag of $750 or best offer.

I originally got the Premium Reprints for the AD&D 1E Core, Unearthed Arcana, and Against the Slave Lords (since I knew the latter had original material in it). I picked up the OD&D set later on, and the price had already climbed to $200 from its original $150. I imagine it's a lot higher by now.

I just finished reading King James I of England's 1604 treatise, A Counterblaste to Tobacco, and found it quite entertaining. This is the second publication of King James that I've read through, having previously partaken of the Basilikon Doron. But unlike that work, which was meant for his son...

It's worth pointing out that pretty much all of the cool stuff about the Sith also comes from the prequel trilogy. Yeah, the OT refers to Darth Vader as "Dark Lord of the Sith," but it's the prequels which establish: That "Sith Lords" are the Dark Side-using enemies of the Jedi Order, with...

I just finished reading H. Rider Haggard's 1887 novel She: A History of Adventure, and have to say that I'm quite impressed by it! I'm slightly chagrined that I hadn't heard of this title as recently as a month ago, only finding out about it because of a "wiki walk" which began (as so many...

Owen K. C. Stephens has played around with the gestalt rules here and there over the years. For instance, on his old blog, he talks about "amalgam" characters, which is basically the same thing as gestalt characters except that "All of the abilities of both classes are considered to be native...
