I mean, do you actively search out things to turn into some kind of conspiracy?

I think epochrpg does. I cannot think of one positive post made by this member.

My 2e bard, Lotat the Magnificent, was the one who first wrote "Stairway to Heaven". He rolled a natural 20 to perform it and almost set his lute strings on fire

That is just too awesome.

If you have a problem with another poster, report their post. This kind of thing is the hight of rudeness.

The Golden Rule applies. I severely doubt you'd like to see others talking negatively about you as if you weren't present. Please don't do it.

If there's some question, please take it to e-mail.

It was a joke, guys. Hence the HA HA! thing at the end. My little commentary about how everything one of us says gets pulled off our blogs and deconstructed for every possible meaning.

What?? You think we're that hypercritical? Ohhhh, I'm gonna write SUCH a scathing blog post!!


Why is everyone looking at me like that?



mommy?

 

[RodneyThompson]

Heh, I know you were joking, but not hypercritical, just super eager to analyze every word and phrase. It happened with stuff off of my blog a short while ago, and I was just making a joke about that.

I knew it was a joke. My question is whether that was a grain in truth in that. I do think Whizbang hit that grain when he mentioned it's about collaboration.

I do keep forgetting that there is a small group out there looking for every negative thing they can find, though. However, I don't think they'll stop, and I'm not going to stop discussing things I find fun an interesting just because they are out there. I'll just add more people to my ignore list (up to about 6 from 0 a few months ago).

Oh, sure. I made a post a while back about how I think general game theory from things like board games can trickle down into other genres. Certainly, cooperative games are not only something D&D does well, it's also something I'm a big fan of. Right now, my favorite board games are cooperative, not competitive. I much prefer a game of Rock Band to a game of Halo or WoW. And, of course, give me an RPG over all of those. It's not that I don't like competitive games, mind you--I just got done yelling at my television while cheering for my Tennessee Volunteers--but when it comes to me and my friends sitting down to play a game I'd rather we be all on the same side.

This is why I'm very much opposed to adversarial Dungeon Mastering. The idea that it's the DM's job to try and kill the heroes, or "keep them humble" for some reason, is abhorrent to me. In my mind, the DM's job is to facilitate a fun experience, tell a good story that has a role for all of the participants, and make sure everyone (the DM included!) has a good time getting together and playing an RPG.

That is just too awesome.

He also once smuggled a stolen bar of platinum out of the city by stuffing it down the front of his pants. When the guards questioned him, he convinced them he was "gifted".
