Is there one being set up this year?

All true. Retcons can be stealth, what do you mean he's still alive??? moments. Or part of some big event, like Spidey losing his memory and wife. Or just Superboy Prime's retcon punch changing the universe;) I read somewhere that the comic industry assumes that 90% of the fan base turns...

I would humbly suggest he watch the D-Day opening of Saving Private Ryan and imagine a character going through that. 48 hours can have profound character altering changes, let alone 4 months of fighting/running away from big bad nasties. I suppose it would be a bad idea to use the old 'It's...

Thanks, Elf Witch. Though what you've given me is puzzling. He wants a cool character, playing a coward doesn't fit this in my mind. He's worried about the game being lethal, but the DM is as non killer a DM as I've heard of. She tried talking to him and he freaked out. So my next question...

There's some really good stuff here. It would be great if people were more accepting of change and could understand that people might prefer a different version of a game. I never really played any of the flavors of D&D but know just enough to see how different people can enjoy the uniqueness...

One thing I'm really curious about. Player A, the hypersensativec, walking on eggshells one. What does the player want out of the game? I can't imagine he wants a game where he has to keep running to stay alive (but I could be wrong:)).

Z: "Phantasmal killer!" V: "By all means, feel free to attempt to murder your own ally. I believe he just ceased his mental struggles against my command to shoot you." Classic. Now I'll join the listy hoping Yuk Yuk sticks around. OotS needs a new laughing killer.

I don't believe for a moment Belkar is really going to die. Belkar has been the 'PC run by a friend/SO of the GM' most of the strip. There will be some way around it.

I'd say so. Thog can likely catch him, but would have to charge to get any attacks in, if Roy is full moving.

I have to disagree on this. Chaotic evil is the barbarian warband massacring a village for no reason. Lawful Evil is crucifying thousands of people along the Appian way to show the power and authority of Rome and what happens then that is challenged. It's a very purposeful evil.

I barely know the name, since I've not read any of the Harry Potter books or seen the movies. Sounds like a fine, non-silly name to me. I remember hearing this in the theater the first time I saw Star Wars and thinking this was a great name. Never seemed silly to me. I won't go down the...

I consider this an important point. In DnD morality is not relative. It's very black and white and with a couple simple spells you can tell if someone is good or evil. In terms of the game world, these spells are not self deceptions, they are quite accurate.

I'll take a different tact here. It seems like there is a certain lack of trust in the DM in this case. Im the game I normally play in, I've known the DM for years and trust him. So if my level 20 wizard casts a spell that should destroy someone and I get: DM: The target seems unaffected...

166) Rain Blade Mk. II - This longsword gives the user the ability to remember obscure details and calculate large numbers. "My lord! We are beset by countless goblins!" "3,126 goblins. Definitely 3,126."

Go ahead, Loki. Work's been severely cutting into my time.

We could give it a go. If it goes on hiatus, I'm not sure it would come back, which would be a shame. I could create a league, or someone else with a full account who can message people could.

And for the record, league scoring of stats will start on the 29th as well.

A couple of players have expressed a strong desire for the draft to bne run now. Rag also said he was ready now. Having already said I was going to run it later, I don't feel I can suddenly say I'm going to run it now. I will, however, run the draft tomorrow Oct 29th at 3:00 CDT. The one...

We have 9 now. I can try closing with that and set the draft for the weekend to give people a little time.

I know. I ran it past some people at my work, but they are only football fans. I don't play in any other fantasy leagues so can't advertise there. This has been our worst year for people joining so far. Last year went pretty fast.
