Why Worldbuilding is Bad

RC I've agreed with your position throughout this hread...I guess sarcasm doesn't really come across to well on the internet.

Oh, it does, it does. :lol:

Just making things explicit for the gallery.

Breathing is bad. Of course, when I say breathing, I mean breathing on people when you're sick, and spreading germs on them. If you say breathing means anything else, I accuse you of playing semantics. If you agree, on the basis of my definition, that breathing is bad, I then take it to mean that all breathing is bad using a much wider definition.

Discuss.

True Res will still work - you just need the King's time and place of birth.


But the uncle has the keys to the coffer. Hence, poor Hamlet cannot afford True Res.

EDIT: Moreover, the King's time and place of birth aren't known. This is for two reasons.

(1) The Queen Mother gave birth while travelling, and

(2) The players demanded that the DM not waste his time with developing extraneous details of that nature.

EDIT TO THE EDIT: For that matter, the plot of Hamlet doesn't require that Hamlet be the Prince of Denmark. His father could as easily have been the head of a fishing village as a King, without any damage whatsoever to the plot (and eliminating the chances of the village shelling out for any sort of death-defying).

As I said before, it isn't the world that prevents plots from being used; it's a lack of imagination.

People who like breathing really like making other people sick because it feeds their ego - that's just simple medical science. Also - Breathing is a waste of time, but complaining about people who breathe is not. Once you all finally face that, it's a simple matter of concluding that none of us, by definition, breathes.

Hey, even Umbran said it was funny the first time. :lol:
