As far as I remember, Epic wasn't even announced back then, and the Players Handbook was not yet out when they started to play.

stupid 30 seconds.....

At least we can get there again, with the new server.

Should I attempt to post slower?

Everyone should post slower! My post count is the one that matters!

I remember the days of playing with D&D 2.5ish. The speculation was fun...

 

[Crothian]

the specualtion was insane...we were having too much fun with 2.0 to do any switrching besides the rules changes were rather extreme

Well, I was already playing a sort of D&D 2.5, myself. I had all the Player's Option books and had edited them into a playable system. While my system had different solutions than 3e uses, the switchover was pretty easy for my campaign. Except for things like elven fighter/mages -- that sort of character just barely translates to 3e now.

I remember coming back to my gencon hotel room and one of the guys sleeping on the floor was trying to feed us some crazy line about how AD&D was going to become Linex.

The next year I played a tournement game where 300 ogres charged at 30 ft per round to reach us under a hail of fireballs, while most of our defensive spells lasted 6 combat minutes.

I found out about this site much later.
I do have memories of trying to make 1.5 characters using 2nd ed hints from dragon magazines.

the change from fiorst to second was no big deal for us, we were actually playing different systems at the time and went "meh" when it came out
