Wish Me Luck: I'm Reading the DM Guide Cover To Cover!

[demiurge1138]

Wait a minute... Hyp, is there really a "what kind of Gygaxian prostitute are you?" quiz? Or is that just Photoshop? I'm really hoping for the former, because that'd be hilarious.

Demiurge out.

I read all my books cover to cover, doesn't everybody??

I tend to skip fluff. I can make up my own fluff.

Sorry... I threw the image together a while back when I had the idea for the quiz and simply couldn't be bothered writing it

But feel free to do one yourself!

....I wonder where one can find the wandering prostitute table, if one doesn't have the 1e DMG.....

Did anybody read the 3.5 books cover to cover? and if so, why?

Given that I'd already read the 3.0 DMG and the Manual of the Planes, what would the point be?

granted, i've probly read 90% of them all in my flippings/referrings

I did, so that I could see exactly what they'd changed, in form and content, both big and little. And boy, were there a lot of changes, ranging from entire chapters to slight turns of phrase that one could very easily miss!

Given that I'd already read the 3.0 DMG and the Manual of the Planes, what would the point be?

See above.

I'm considering rereading it also if only as a refresher.

No doubt someone has it posted here within the achives section

A thorough knowledge of the text comes in handy when one is arguing against the stupidity of gaming fundamentalists who quote DMG (and PHB) verses out of context for their own nefarious uses. I did the same thing after being left speechless when the ol' grump up the street quoted at me, "A die for a die."
