Re: Way Off-Topic: Question for RPGamers

Hey Xeno, Thanks for the update! Sounds like the computer is doing a darn good job and likely has a richer story that comes with professional writing staff knowing what they are doing. That's compelling and leads me to consider checking it out even more. But still, time is a factor. I spent a coupl...

Re: Way Off-Topic: Question for RPGamers

Hi Xeno - Hey Honor, thanks for checking in. I had planned to post today anyway as we had a nice long session yesterday but you definitely help give me some talking points. You've got a lot of sound observations there and most of them are spot on: You're correct that the druid and cleric are able t...

Re: Way Off-Topic: Question for RPGamers

Hi Xeno, I haven't played any of these but they sound fun. Trouble is I don't think I would be able to ration playing enough to do everything else I need to do. But you definitely tempted me. :) Through some luck we were able to piece together a nice party. A dwarven war domain cleric, a half-elf d...

Re: Way Off-Topic: Question for RPGamers

I loved both Baldur's Gate and Neverwinter Nights. Sadly, my aging computer can't handle BG 3. Going to have to wait on that. So far it has been everything I'd hoped for and then some. Like you I loved those previous games, I must have nearly burned a hole into my Neverwinter games and I've so many...

Re: Way Off-Topic: Question for RPGamers

As always this is one of my favorite threads to see pop-up. I love getting to see everyone's stories! Got a bit of different one. Three friends and I have started our Bauldr's Gate 3 playthrough together this weekend. If you aren't familiar with it Bauldr's Gate 3 is the latest in a series of CRPG v...

Re: Meanwhile, on planet earth...

We had our second hottest summer ever last year and we are well on pace to beat both of those records this year. Summers here were always warm but the sheer number of 100+ degree days has shot up tremendously over the last few years and the heat during certain periods has become very fatal. We've se...

Re: From: Interview with Schmo - The Outtakes

That pizza sounds pretty good although I admit to wondering about the coconut. A spicy pina colada pizza... might be good. High-quality, unsweetened, real coconut flakes/chips/shavings (I've seen them billed as all of those) are a pretty adaptive food. I think when I mention it people mostly run to...

Re: From: Interview with Schmo - The Outtakes

And then there are those of us in the weird camp of thinking pineapple on pizza is a fine topping, but not Hawaiian specifically... Canadian bacon/ham is the devil.

A local shop here does pineapple, roasted jalapenos, spicy sausage, and lightly topped with some coconut shavings... *chef's kiss*

Re: Musings of a Nurse (my work life)

How many non-healing wounds or amputations/further amputations, smoking-related illnesses, and just plain stinking, does it take to make you think, "I should probably stop smoking?" Apparently not enough. Venting today! I can't even imagine the frustration. Years ago I knew a lad that was in a car ...

Re: Greatest Movies of All Time

Amelie in my opinion still one of the best of all times. One of the biggest highlights of Paris for my wife was getting to sit in Cafe des Deux Moulins and act out her childhood dream of being Audrey Tautou. This is why I struggle with these lists, the longer I can think and talk through it the mor...
