Hee. No, they had a huge font-geek fest in there a little while ago. I figured you could state your case for serif vs. san serif fonts as used in gaming media.
Sweetie, we're crooks. If everything were right, we'd be in jail.

Ah, I wondered what had caused such a flurry of posts.
On Saturday I'm going to pop along to Wizards' big D&D 4E Launch event. Should be interesting.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I'm visiting family in Canberra over the weekend. (We have a long weekend - Queen's Birthday holiday. You guys need a monarch, it's more reliable than President's Day.) So I'm missing the Game Day and launch stuff. Ah well.

move out and draw fire
Wow, that totally took me back to my first D&D.
Except for where the whole 4E part smacked me upside the head.
I still maintain its focus is as tactical minis game, but I will wait until ours arrives and I can read/play it.

Ok, some advice from the new PHB:
Play a dragonborn if you want... to look like a dragon.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I got a message from my roomie that my nephew is sleeping over tonight. I will be very surprised if I don't find them playing Magic when I get home.

Yeah, I'm gonna be settling down for some reading. I'm pleased to say it looks like my art printed well too.

My 2ยข on 4E. I'm even more surprised by the scale of changes to the system, but I am very excited to give it a whirl.
But man, do I wish this system had been out a few years ago as the fighter's new arsenal of powers would have been excellent for my great drunken dwarf character.

A buddy of mine who has been a rabid defender of 4E for several months has now read the books and even run Keep on the Shadowfell several times.
He now *hates* 4E.
I will elaborate on his thoughts later this afternoon, but he's very unhappy right now.
