I have the same problem with Fagamut. Might just stop him at a certain figure for EXP. EmoDragon will stop at level 49 but the rest I have no confirmation for when I'll stop them, especially when I had to bring Bahamut7 out of retirement. I'm going to guess we get another redesign by the end of the decade and they'll change the level icons around again. I do wonder if it's even worth retiring them at certain levels anymore.

I can put up with my own blood, I just don't like needles. If a doc has to give me an injection, I'm crawling up the walls.

I can't watch being pierced by needles as well, but as long as I don't watch, I'm ok with needles.

Then in that respect, you're a braver man than I...

HOORAY!

2+ Armour Class 0 realy sucks, he's a 3.5 Ed character.

One thing I never liked about (A)D&D? You cannot dodge! Either your opponent hits you or he misses you. But you cannot dodge. That's just silly.

I prefer newer systems, we've learned from those mistakes, now. Plus I play Exalted more than that, where you can choose to Dodge, Parry, or Martial Arts Parry. If you describe it enough, you can get bonuses as well.

White Wolf has a very convincing concept for their RPGs. The worst concept still is TDE/DSA.

This is why I always favour a hot cup of tea first thing. When the fingers start to freeze, simply place near the mug and allow the warmth to penetrate them. As you do this, you can drink, accomplishing the same thing, but internally.

Illusions are lame. At least, when I'm not the one creating them. Once in Vampire: The Masquerade, me and a friend both played as a Ravnos. They can create illusions and often are gamblers or gypsies... I cannot understand why the rest of the group didn't like us. After all, we saved their asses more than once!

If anything, my alts miss a fair amount of deposits so you never have anything to worry about. However, there's still some alts above me that are active and I hope for them to be shut down whenever they are ready. gfoxclock is still on its way to 36k EXP.

It has been raining here for 2 days running, this freshers would be fun if I could do anything outside without getting soaking wet.

Well, the River Severn has deepened by about 2m in the past day and a half. A lot of water coming down from Wales... On the pic that Wiki shows, it's nearly at the bank and I can't say for sure that the Environment Agency won't be putting the defences up soon...

Thanks for that, Dr. Zoidberg.

You're welcome. Now, where are my Anchovies?

They're all gone - you just ate the last ones.

I need more! More! MORE!

There aren't any and now there never will be.

MOOOOOOORRREEEE! *dramatic music sets in*

I've never thought that the Futurama credits were that dramatic... Ever watched them at 1.5 speed? I saw them the other day on my PS3 and just thought it was hilarious.

No, TDE is just a shitty system. Seriously, three rolls and a lot of calculating just to see if you are sucessful or not?

Ok, that sounds worse than some of the systems that I've played... I once had combat with no rolls and that was fun, just deciding what happens on a whim, as DM.

Sounds interesting.

I remember one session, where we tried GURPS for the very first time. After two hours, we where done setting up the characters. After two minutes, the game was finished, with all but two characters being dead.

That sounds like poor DMing, or very poor decisions from the players. It's session 1, so dream sequence it, get them together and start over, perhaps with a degree of paranoia...

At least you have the time to make some witty or cool remarks before going down. Or maybe something funny. Like "Oh come on, what on earth could possibly happen? We are just going to have a piss!" or "It's just the town watch! How tough can they be?"

The sea monster was an illusion. It turns out that the pirate's arch-nemesis is on board the most feared pirate vessel in the known world - the Crimson Roger. They boarded and lived to tell the tale, as well. I stayed wet enough, during the storm, but still lashed to the helm.

Illusions are lame. At least, when I'm not the one creating them. Once in Vampire: The Masquerade, me and a friend both played as a Ravnos. They can create illusions and often are gamblers or gypsies... I cannot understand why the rest of the group didn't like us. After all, we saved their asses more than once!

There are worse clans than the Ravnos - Tzimictze (sp?) for example. One of them sealed up a ghouls' sphincter, using visicitude and the idea of "tearing him a new arsehole" suddenly became rather appealing.

If anything, my alts miss a fair amount of deposits so you never have anything to worry about.

Poor DMing? No. Poor decisions from the players? Maybe... I remember the following: Huge battle was going on. Player 1 survived it and was wandering over the battle field. Players 2 and 3 come along. They think: "Hey, let's loot the corpses!"
Player 1 says: "Don't touch my fallen comrades!". Player 2 tries to beat up Player 1, who in the process kills both (2 and 3). Player 4 was watching this from a distance, and decided to shoot player 1. My character was watching from a distance as well. I tried shooting Player 4, but missed. After that, I escaped (I was playing a cowardly race, so I just acted as the typical guy from that race would). Game over.

We didn't bother with a second round, because it was very late already. But it was a funny game anyway. ^^

Oh, we've had similar. Rogue has been pissing off the Paladin all day, during a dungeon crawl, as he failed his sleight of hand roll, so he let the Paladin see him stealing various objects of great worth. When the rogue tries to open a locked door, he sets off a pit trap and falls in. The Paladin is the only one with a rope. He will only help the rogue, if he apologies to him for stealing. Rogue refuses; Paladin says that this is a slight against his god. The Rogue responds with "your god's a wanker!" comments. The pit closes.

The party rigs up a way of opening the trap again, but the argument continues, until the trap shuts once more. DM getting frustrated by this point, when they open the trap for the third time, the ceiling opens, to dump a load of refuse on the rogue. The party lets him drown in it.
