Ambiguously Gendered Return of 'What is the Hivemind?'

The consensus among the ones that want it to die.

Right, but even so, I thought there wasn't that specific of a consensus, just that they thought it should die.

I have no doubt. It generally the older players that have good memeories of previous editions, but it is always nice to know that the younger folk have respect for the older systems and actually try to tack a crack at em.

I haven't tried 1e and I'm not sure I'd want to, but I certainly like the feel of it. The system worries me, though.

Oh--but I think that was the argument that they decided to use as their central thesis because anything else fell apart against Somac's suggestion to heal it and then see if it attacks.

Buy NG products then--1st edition feel, 3rd edition rules

I pretty much a big fan of planar material - the guardinals and the clestial NPCs in the back are what turned me on to the book actually.

A Planescape fan, maybe? I'm trying to convince a friend of mine to run a Planescape PbP on EN World.

The Diaglo Effect, no doubt

Wouldn't be surprised, but I got the impression that 3e and 1e gamers just wouldn't mix. And, although I like my new group, they have some odd houserules.

I thought just one person argued that far, though. I'd guess most of them went, "... Well, whatever. I still think it should die."

NG? Not Neutral Good, I'm guessing.

 

[Jdvn1]

Aaand I pull ahead!

I guess....that was the only viable argument among them. Are you saying that one person managed to convincingly get it killed by himself, then?
