The problem I have with static numbers of dice (like /always/ rolling 2d8) is you run into the problem that comes with d20 -- That is, your skill becomes irrelevant, you rely wholy on the luck of the dice. Dicepools eliminate this problem by exponentially decreasing your chance of failure as your sk...

Well... Personally, I find all of it to be fairly silly and moot. Airplanes already arm all passengers with sharp pointy bits, when you ask for a coke in a can. You get the can, which can be easily torn open into a rather fashionable blade. Not to mention that any number of electronic devices can be...

My take on evolution: I do not believe that species jump and evolve to another species outright. I don't even believe that we evolved from chimpanzees, or whatever line of primates you want to cite. What I do believe is that people wildly underestimate protein strands of DNA, and what they can do. W...

[Orlando, FL] Please read this.
As the members of my roleplaying group grow thin (due to jobs, school, whatever), I am faced with the task of recruiting new ones. This is a feat nigh impossible, it would seem. I cannot find any roleplayers in the Orlando area. If you happen to live out here, and are interested in gaming, please, p...

Daki: I thought that's what their claim was. 3278: But it was never proven that Iraq had WMDs. Nor were they brandishing theirs and boasting about them. I'm not saying the cases are comparable, but I find it silly that we would attack Iraq on a hunch of WMDs, and bomb a country to the stone ages, be...

First off: I voted for Green Party. Now, I went and read most of this thread. It occurs to me that some people /still/ support going to war with Iraq because of WMDs that have never been found. The question I would like to pose to these people is this: We know without any doubt that North Korea has ...

Ancient, Paul -- (And anyone else who cares)
Time is extremely thin for me right now. Me and my coworkers have just founded our own company this past week, so that's been keeping me busy, on top of coordinating with roofers to fix the hurricane holes in my ceiling. So I don't know how often I will be able to post in the games, and for how long...

I expect to catch a lot of flak for this one. I personally support the idea of public executions for the death penalty. I support the idea of the death penalty, especially executed like this, as a deterrant for crime. I know that most people, if they grew up seeing people hung or shot in public (or ...

Burning halo sounds fun to me, though I can't quite picture exactly how it would look. But I mainly blame the fact that I'm sitting at the Dept. of Transportation, working on their stupid database, and it's sapping every creative bone in my body and filling me with an overbearing sense of dread and ...

I don't know about having a M:tG card being our symbol. Also remember that if our gang symbol is simple enough, we can easily graffiti it on the wall somewhere. If it's a piece of art, we can't do that. What about something simple like a pair of angelic wings spreading out from a circle? Lots of alm...

Ares: These two work together fairly often of the gadget front, along with playing cards among other games. They probably met initially from Sticks introducing them. No interesting stories come to mind, though possibly both can go on a rampage of some sort -- Toyman does have those psychotic anti-r...

Okay. Well, as I had mentioned, Ares met up with Sticks at a fairly early age. Being his way, he wanted nothing more than to put several holes in the weak kids' face. But Sticks talked him down, actually like.. talked to him. So he got basically an admiring infatuation with the guy and stuck to him....
