Buffistas

I like books. I just don't want to take on too much. Do they have an introduction to the modern blurb?

Our wings are not tired

It has been way too long since I've been able to spend any good time with Rock Band or GH.

Hmm....if I could have only 4 skills in a game, what would they be?

It's d20 bare bones to the point of ridiculousness, but it seems to in turn make it so much easier to customize, working from such a humble beginning.

AHA! The real motive finally comes out!

Well, it wouldn't happen any time soon, as we've already got a bunch of large trips planned, but S keeps telling me how much she'd love to visit DC and see the monuments.

Probably won't be in time to help move, though.

Coding and Sleeping

Just for the heck of it, my Oblivion characters. I fired it up last night after a long period of not playing.

My fighter type character for the main quest and a few side quests:

My thief type character for ignoring the main quest completely:

Has anyone played or used the Lost World solitaire fighting books?

The ones where you each have a book and a card with actions and you call out page numbers and see what reaction you get?

Yeah, I've played with those a few times.

move out and draw fire

I'm reading a lot of stuff about virutal worlds these days.

I, Avatar

has some interesting points about "rules" and "roles" that might show up in my posts during the next minor role-playing vs. combat kerfluffle. Fair warning against geekspeak.

Best line in the book so far: "Unlike in The Sims, where participants organize parties and invite the neighbors, in World of Warcraft participants organize parties and go kill the neighbors."

"rules" and "roles"

Very interesting. I await more with baited breath.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Yes, please do share the geekspeak (as I'm not sure when/if I'll get to the book).
