    The D&D thread

    The campaign I'm running right now has eight different players. At any particular session there's three to seven present and that's fine with me. Getting a bunch of adults together in one physical location for a few hours on the same day is tough and it's no trouble for me at all to scale things...

    The Twilight Zone

    A Game of Pool I would rank very highly as well. It says a lot about gaming and competition in its 22 minutes. As a dog owner all my life I've always had a soft spot for The Hunt. "You see, Mr. Simpson, a man, well, he'll walk right into Hell with both eyes open. But even the Devil can't fool...

    Hearthstone

    I watched some matches and it was pretty good. I didn't miss the cards that got benched, matches were interesting, commentary was good, etc. It also had some really unique moments like when Chakki ran out a Vilefin Inquisitor in his control Paladin and totally fucked over his opponent with an...

    Wait, people are talking about Crystalis? That game is great! It's one I go back to every few years and run through again. It does have a few spots where it's easy to just have no fucking clue what to do next but overall I rank it very highly among games in the NES library. It's got some iconic...

    Divinity: Original Sin 2

    I've always done double Lone Wolf personally. When the Enhanced Edition came out I tried a few different pairings for the Tactical difficulty mode. I already wasn't super happy with tanks in the base game compared to Rogue/Archery stuff and with the changes I didn't like Rogue/Archery all that...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I haven't played since WotLK. There isn't anymore crap like Blacksmithing/JC being optimal or optimal professions in general right? I can just pick whatever and it won't turn into a fuckaroo later on when I'm dumping X for Y to get a little bit more +gooder? I've done some reading online but...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Even though I was a Resto Shaman at the time and felt outclassed in some of them I overall liked TBC heroics. It reminded me doing stuff in EQ like revamped CT or other content not everyone could do. I may or not be a crazy person.

    9/11/2001 - Where were you when Bush knocked down the towers?

    I was 23 and I was at college. I had just parked my car when there was talk of a fire at the World Trade Center. By the time my first class was over the whole world was different. When the other planes started hitting (there were four remember) it really felt like no one was safe anywhere. Two...

    Does nearly everyone under 24 seem autistic to you?

    I started handing out candy on Halloween at my uncle's house because he's too old and every year the kids continue to seem fine. It's mostly just teens that suck and teens have always sucked forever. You sucked as a teen, I sucked as a teen, everyone sucks as a teen.

    I don't know if enough time has past to do an ending wherebut another Running Man could be pretty good. And don't forget Lawnmower Man for silly book to movie adaptations. The short story is about a satyr running a lawn care business and King had to threaten legal action to get his name off...

    The book was pretty good. Going from the book to the movie was one of the more terrible transitions in King media. Goddamn was it awful. edit - Hearts in Atlantis will always piss me off because the book is basically four connected Novellas and "Hearts in Atlantis" is the name of the second...

    If you haven't ever seen Storm of the Century it is very good. It was written as a screenplay originally rather than a book and is maybe my favorite of the made-for-TV projects.

    I know that's the one scene that everyone always remembers but if you ever take a second pass through that book make a little note on some scratch paper every time the story gets oddly sexual. The whole thing is just fucking full of weird shit and then a bunch of shit that's just kinda creepy...

    You read the novels! NERD. The SCG Open top 8 isn't too bad. There's a decent amount of variety with a couple very different control decks along with Bant and even a G/R ramp goggles deck. Humans almost made it in and a B/G delirium deck almost made it in. Still doesn't look like all that...

    Fraud. What can happen is the person will claim they didn't get it, you'll have no way of proving they did, and you'll be forced to issue a refund and then be out the cards. You wouldn't necessarily think that would be the case with a modern European country but that's how it is. Every eBay...

    It gets helped a lot by Generations being so fucking horrific. There's also a meta plot in the film of Q finally proving to Picard that he's not the enlightened person he believes himself to be. If you go back and watch the episode where Q introduces the Enterprise to the Borg (and really...

    Wait, did yo think I was joking? I was not telling a joke. If I had any writing skills at all I'd start penning a Crippled Masters reboot with all differently-abled transgender characters and it wouldnotbe a comedy anymore than the original was a comedy. If you haven't seen it the original...

    Man, if I was script writer I'd immediately pen a remake of Crippled Masters with all disabled transgenders and start shopping it around. This forum seriously is just full of awesome ideas. It's too bad I have no talent to combine with them.
