h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

well.. .it could be fun.... but it would take a while unless everyone was on at the same time or incredibly patient.

I suggest that we start with a small, mini game to see if it'll work...
I could really playing with an experienced DM myself, I'm not the slightest bit good at dming and I'd like to...get better... but I know all the rules...
characters would get pages, of course...
what if someone left for a while, though?

the same as in a D&D session if someone goes on holidays assume there charicter is captured, at the pub, in anthor dimestion or just alseep, until they get back.

With the people I play with the playerless character is played by someone else (usually the DM). If we need a Chatroom there's one at the Doctor Who page we could use. And don't worry about forgetting things, with me around it's not a problem.

AK's right about the different times somebody might be on though. This is going to need some working out...

Ok... rather, a different idea.

I could use a *good* adventure ready by the end of next week. that is, Friday. to play over the holidays. for a level 4 party.

Ummm...What exactly do you mean?

Well it whould be nice to play instead of DM for once. Mr. X do you need eveything to be explianed? I should just follow you arround and educate you. For this one though I am not going to bother, read the damm books for once. There is something called a LIBARY its where you get information, use it. If you don't have one or don't know where one is then use your yellow pages.

Look Darakat, I don't need your criticism. I am not one of those uneducated freaks who don't even understand the concept logical thought or any thought at all for that matter, and for your information I know perfectly well what a library is, where it is, and how to use it; in fact I've been using it my entire life and I'd bet you everything I own that could find my way around any library twenty times better than you could. As it happens I can also (unlike almost everyone I've ever met) spell words without errors or spell checks.

If you must know (and you really mustn't), I just don't understand what AK meant. Now please go away and don't insult me again.

well I sorta take back what I said...

But waht I meant is I'm not a good DM yet I'd like to make a good adventure. For that matter I'd like to see a good adventure, all written out and everything...
but anyway...

< What was that Darakat? >

v4 is supposed to be out in 2010... just 7 more years with this one...

Hello there, I've been roleplaying since I started out with solo game books for Fighting Fantasy and Tunnels & Trolls, I then moven onto FF RPG and, later, AFF. I also aquired Everway, DnD ADnD, 1st and 3rd ed, Tunnels & Trolls propper, Dragon Warriors and one or two others. I now enjoy munchkining as much as possible, especially if there's someone in the group who takes it all really seriously or is a bit of a rules nazi.

Hi there!

Have you got a shorter name we could call you than the one you've chosen as your user name? You see, I'm using fixed names on the member list in order to keep the reseacher names short, using the rather than the tag

That reminds me - I need to check if someone has changed their name lately...

yeah, most people call me T.B. Falsename, or TB.

OK, you've been added to the list of members!

...which it appears I never was......

Thanks for pointing it out AK - while searching for your application posting I discovered I'd forgotten to add Michele as well!

*reminder to self: start writing down things you haven't time to do right then and there instead of trusting your brains to rememember it!*

Oh - and I've added both AK and Michele now!

YAY!

HUZZAH!

By the way, does T.B. stand for "The Big"?

Not in my case, I believe you're thinking of TB Diccus. Any way...

I think Ideno changed her's back to Mina, but I'm not entirely sure.
