[QUOTE="Terath Ninir, post: 1795538, member: 47"] I disagree pretty heavily with the full list and with Orcus's list. I agree in spirit with Sangrolu/Psion, Pramas, and Mearls, though I'd quibble on their actual choices. I like *why* they voted for what they did. Nostalgia should be a consideration only when it is an extreme factor, like the GDQ and Keep on the Borderlands. (Frankly, though, Return to the Keep on the Borderlands blew the original completely out of the water on every level.) But GDQ, particularly the underdark D section, had far more than nostalgia going for it: it has forever shaped what the underdark is, and how underdark adventures are run. One thing that I think was a sad omission was "The Circle of Eight". I imagine it got overlooked since it came during the dark days at the end of 2e, but that adventure rocked the house. One of my player's characters (Darlena Flamedancer, with her character of the same name) became a replacement member of the Circle of Eight through that adventure. The only complaint I ever had about the adventure is that it wasn't longer. :) [/QUOTE]
