You said it well. All I did was reiterate.

It should definitedly be named "Electric Boogaloo!"

Try this explanation: With the downturn in the economy, people with jobs are working more hours to keep their jobs - and people without jobs, or underemployed, are looking for jobs. No matter what, you have a lot of people with a lot less free time than they had. Ah well - it's only been within the ...

No joke. it might be the solor flare storms affecting satellites. (I think some internet traffic is thru satellites, right? even "land line" phones use satelilites nowadays) ((or something)) It shows my age, that when I hear about solar flares, I worry about Superman's robots malfunctioni...

Could be that there are a few of us that the site doesn't like. Or maybe when we all get on at once, it gets boggled.

No idea what a tracert is. I'll google it. Meantime, I've used these devices in several other wifi areas, including our daughter's/son-in-law's place, a hospital, and a hotel. Except for the phone, in which case I stick with the 4G connection. And a couple of other people have posted that they get t...

We're alternating between Chrome and Firefox on the laptop; Dolphin, Last Pass, and the generic browser on the Nook Tablet; and Firefox & the generic browser on the Android phone. Same problems with each.

Congratulations!

Has anyone else had problems opening up TrollLord.com, either the main page(s) or the board? For the past few days, I've received a lot of errors saying the site is down, or missing, or taking Too Darned Long for the browser to tolerate, or something similar. Is there something wrong, with which one...

There was once a screen for 5.0 (in a VERY swell 3-ring binder which would fold under itself so it would stand up) but none for 5.5 - unless it came out REALLY recently. And 7.5 definitely doesn't have a screen.

Which means the field is wide open for you to create a screen!

Even without the GM's discretion, one can always TRY........

I think the UHF reference is a parody of some cop movie line from back in the day, "Badges? we don't need no stinking badges!" That honey badger video is too funny. The "badges" line is from that great 1948 Bogart movie, the Treasure of the Sierra Madre . That movie is filled wi...

We don't need no steenkin' badgers!

Weird Al! Mr. MormonYoYoMan, you are a man after my own heart!

Al Yancovic stole this too? I stole it from Roy Thomas, somewhere around 1968.

Man, I envy your players. And I question your sanity. You're really gonna try to get through all of the Manor in one session? Yikes!

Of course, I suppose having all the PCs run out of the house screaming like little girls is one way it could end quickly...

Badgers?

We don't need no steenkin' badgers!

Be sure to release the PDF first, so we can sabotage -- uh, I mean, so we can help catch errors!

It looks as if releasing a PDF to us is as wise as having a team of blind testers and proofreaders. Give yourselves a pat on the back, everyone who's been catching fixes, especially Peter!
Hope this hasn't discouraged the trolls...

Another hobbit-fan! Good to see you, though there may be as many hobbit wannabees after the next Jackson movie - as there were elf wannabees after the previous Jackson movie(s). Hobbits are GREAT fun to play! Very resourceful, with an outlook on life which is unique but close to my heart. A conversa...

Dead Horse wrote:the newer manga style art in wotc books turns me off.

If ever there was a phrase with which we all should agree, this is it!

And the art - OH, that art! It puts anything "monsterous" that TSR, WotC, and Paizo have used for similar publications. The ONLY advantage the aforementioned Big Guns had/have is color. And y'know what? These CM illos are still more pleasing to the eyes. Of course, now I want a portfolio o...

Argh! Videos! It takes SO LONG to go through videos. Eventually, I'll find a book which explains this.

Too sick tonight.

That was one o' the reasons I got the Nook tablet. Saw some books on it which mixed text an dgraphics well. Don't know how they did it, or I'd do it myself. Dagnabbit.

Then I'm gonna miss it in its proper place(s). Glad to have the PDF; it looks GREAT on the Nook even now!

Whoa!

Haven't enjoyed a "monster" book like this since -- Well, I really liked the original TrollPak from Chaosium. But that was more of a campaign toolbox, and this is - well, this is down-&-dirty get-'er-done MONSTERS.

And, OH, that art!!! How I'm gonna miss it in the Nook version!!

Absolutely diabolical and rife with story possibilities!

I try to simulate what would happen or exist in real life. And in real life, jogging is its own punishment, I suppose that anyone who jogs would be forced to carry an iPod and wear ear buds.

on the other hand, just in time for my birthday!
(say it with me)
I wants it! It's me birthday present, my precious Classic Monsters manual....

Yikes! Does this mean it will be downloaded with an attached Nazgul?

"Does it have to be honest?"

Weird. I've used Paypal since 2004 for hundreds of purchases (ebay mostly, but many other places as well) and haven't ever had a problem. And I don't recall anyone on any forum ever mentioning a problem. I've also been using it for the last year to transfer funds to my daughter's band account at co...
