Twitch...

twitch... twitch.

Might wanna see a doctor about that at some point.

Aren't you in the neighborhood...?

If you're asking whether or not I applied, the answer is yes, I put my resume in a week ago. Do I have any idea whether or not I stand a chance? Not a clue.

Well, good luck! I'll keep a good thought for you!

Thank you. I'm one of the lucky individuals on this planet who loves the job I have right now, so win or lose, I still win.

Whaddya think, should out of town types apply even though they say locals only?

Lets see ... can you use D&DG as it written in 3.5?

MotP?

Can you run WotC 3.0 adventure modules in 3.5 without having to correct all NPCs stats?

They altered the pit fiend so much that any adventures that featured a pit fiend have to be re-evaluated, meaning that only thing that is left is the maps and the plot.

I'm on the NDA and have been playing with the new DMG and PHB for about a month now. I haven't seen the new MM yet, but I've heard from other d20 publishers that it looks very nice.

So far, we haven't had much trouble in converting our campaigns to 3.5. It took about a half hour to convert our player characters. I ran a 3.0 published adventure the other day with no problems. It did take me a few minutes to convert some evil yuan-ti rangers, but it wasn't too bad; I could have left their stats alone and they would have played just fine.

As far as the MotP, and Pit Fiend go...I just don't see it as a big deal. The 3.0 stats for all the characters in these books still function except for a couple of minor details that you can fix during play. You can run 3.0 rangers and pit fiends in your 3.5 game. I can see where converting gods with ranger classes from the D&DG might be a pain (Gotta change hit points, skills, add a bunch of special abilities, etc...). The other classes did not get complete makeovers and aren't a big deal.

3.5 is definitely a revision, not a new edition (except for maybe the ranger), and is quite compatible. It's not identical to 3.0 because that would be pointless. Personally, I don't think they changed enough.

As long as you're willing to pay for your own relocation and to pay for your travel to Seattle for interviews, I don't see why not.

It's a 4.0 ranger in a 3.5 world?

 

[Tiefling]

Yeah. This transcends "irony". For sheer density it passes "leady". Is "dwarfstar materialy" a word?

Perhaps "neutron stellar?"

Firing the guys who makes stuff work, only to have to hire them back later is a worldwide thing. Happens all the time with engineers - I've lost track of the times I've seen a company desperately looking for an engineer because they laid off their last one, and now nothing works.

Of course if you're a manager, you're doing your damndest not to fire any of management...
