[QUOTE="Scribble, post: 2993133, member: 23977"] When 3e came ou, I was kind of not gaming much. I stopped gaming right around the WOTC purchase of TSR, not because I thought AD&D was bad, but because I was busy with school. Just didn't fit my schedual at the time. :( Then, later I was living in an apartment with a good friend, and we were close by some other good friends, a few of which had been in my old gaming group... Since I had all my stuff, we decided to get a game up. I instantly fell back in love with gaming! At around the same time, I noticed an add for a convention at a local hotel. (Shorecon!) A friend of mine and I went over to check out the dealer's area. I picked up a few things... A cool (relatively speaking...) Illumninati T-Shirt, some dice, and... A 3rd edition PHB?!?!? I had to buy it... I glanced through it, (wtf is a sorcerer?) but it sat on my shelf for a while... Then one day I started seriously reading the new PHB... I really dug it... And the wall of (d20) D&D material at the local comic/gaming store was insane... :) [/QUOTE]
