  2. Re: NGD Scenes from a Hat Just look at the name! "Iguana" -- so much more humor potential than "Cat".

  5. Re: NGD Scenes from a Hat Your bed. NT: Worst. Bedtime. Story. Ever.
  6. Re: NGD Scenes from a Hat "And if you could look at the universe from outside, at the correct angle, all the stars spell out my name! Is that cool, or what?" NT: Foxbat's VP Pick, and why.

  8. Re: NGD Scenes from a Hat "Cap'n, the warp drive is down! I'll try ta make repairs, but..." "There is... no try... Scotty. There is only... do... or not do."
  9. Re: What happens when a new GM doesn't understand game balance RE: sleeping on the couch. I think it was Rodney Dangerfield that once said, "Marry a good cook. Sex may fade over time, but you always have to eat." I only made the mistake of gaming with one girlfriend (with me as GM running a Fantasy Hero campaign). I recall one occasion where the players were exploring some monster-infested caverns. It's hard to build up suspense when your girlfriend is drawing hearts and cute cartoon figures on the hexmap.
  10. Re: NGD Scenes from a Hat Butter. That dang stuff sat around for like a century before someone invented something to put it on!
  11. Re: NGD Scenes from a Hat "As you can see in Figure 4, the amount of precipitation to drench clothing and produce peak 'wet t-shirt' effect will vary with the ambient temperature..."

  14. Re: Answers & Questions Q: What do you say to me when we were peeing in the woods on a windy day?
  15. Re: What happens when a new GM doesn't understand game balance My first time playing Champions, back in 1983, was also the GM's first time. The game itself was pretty much brand new, and none of us (including the GM) knew thing one about the system. My first character was GI Jones, a badass Vietnam vet with an M-16. And the rules listed an M-16 as "6d6 / 2d6K Autofire". We didn't know that meant 6d6 normal, or 2d6 RKA. Our interpretation was 6d6 damage per hit, and 2d6 Knockback. Our first fight found GI Jones pitted against Brick, and I ended up hitting him with 4 shots. And as I said, none of us really knew the rules, so I rolled 6d6 four times, then 2d6 four more times for Knockback. The bullets themselves barely hurt Brick, but 30 inches of Knockback sent him through two buildings and into a third, and the damage he took from those took him out. Shortly after that, the GM figured out how it really works, much to my disappointment.
  16. Re: NGD Scenes from a Hat And an orangutan certainly couldn't have made them worse. Twelve Monkeys. NT: Less-than-stellar ways for doctors to break bad news to you.
  17. Re: NGD Scenes from a Hat He's turned into an orangutan and works in the local library. NT: Most surprising book to find in the local library.
  18. Re: NGD Scenes from a Hat Every time someone enters the room it pees uncontrollably.
  19. Re: NGD Scenes from a Hat ...electric eels. NT: Ye, gods, I'm tired of the olympics! Instead of watching them, let's ___________!
  20. Re: OIF points come due: Defender vs Neutron I agree with Shoutybloke's assessment, adding that knockback from an RKA is less than for nomal attacks and probably wouldn't result in much, if any, damage to Defender, other than pushing him around the battlefield a bit. And repped for your description of Ironclad's actions.
  21. Re: NGD Scenes from a Hat Synchronized flower arranging. (Hey, for the Dark Champions Olympics, that *would* be unusual!) NT: Foxbat sighted at the 2008 Olympics. What was he doing there?
  22. Re: NGD Scenes from a Hat They looked at him funny. Too bad he works in a clown college...
