[QUOTE="Desdichado, post: 3270911, member: 2205"] Right you are. I've been enjoying it too--indeed, finding someone who's views you can respect but which disagree from your own and hashing out the differences is the very life of good internet discussion, so of course I had no intention of causing anyone (especially you) any offense, and I didn't anticipate that you'd taken any. And part of the reason that I jumped in and "told you you were wrong" but had not done so really to anyone else is because I knew a fruitful and fun discussion could still be had on the merits of various ways of modifying the system to get the results we both tend to want from them. Not that I'm saying that in any way switching to an entirely different system is the "wrong" choice. In fact, it's a choice that has an awful lot of attraction for me lately as well, but for various reasons (inertia in the gaming group, availability of compatible material, etc.) I've decided to stick with d20 and make of it what I can. I think since the last time we've hashed out LM/GNG (now there's a dead horse that could use another sound flogging) I've actually made some slight progress in getting what I want from d20 with a minimum of house rules, and I've also changed somewhat in terms of what I'm willing to live with. I always try to please. I should note that I expect most of my posts are better if read under the influence. [/QUOTE]
