Best: Single handedly saving the charmed members of my party from a nixie by summoning several octopi. Not so much the act itself, but the look on my DM, Storminator's, face at the absurdity of it all.
Worst: Surviving the perils and lack of healing of the Mournland, only to die from a random crit by a bugbear in a random encounter.

Tough one. Of all of the gaming purchases which I have made over 2005, True 20 is probably my favorite, as it has inspired me in many directions.
I can't say as there has been a worst for me for 2005. Thankfully due to EN World's reviews and the general word of mouth here I have managed to avoid a few real stinkers. I have no regrets with anything I have actually purchased.

Reading Half Blood Prince and watching Goblet of Fire, coupled with Redhurst and True 20 has inspired me to work on a Harry Potter-esque game. In general may games are a way to escape from television/media and other real world events, at least for a while.
