DarkMagus
in Exotic Weapons and proficiencies in D&D April 2011

I've never been really rigid with the rules. If a player comes up with an interesting character idea for a wizard who uses a long sword I don't make them spend a feat on martial weapon proficiency. If someone wants to use one of these exotic weapons…

in Hello + How do you get more participation from your players? March 2011

Welcome! I have yet to get my players to be active on the site. It was a feat just to get them to sign up and join the campaign... :( I want to try to use something like Prestige Points in this upcoming game to see if I can get them even just sli…

in To Kill or Not to Kill? March 2011

I understand how you feel. I have a hard time killing off PC's (well at least since college, in highschool it wasn't as much an issue, I'd disintegrate people's limbs if they missed sessions... lol). NPC's that the group are attached too I don't fin…

in Reviving the Fantastinomicon (I hope) March 2011

Hey Gaaran! Glad to see this excellent idea getting some new life breathed into it! I love "The Ruling Class", that was a very cool idea. The banner work looks great Dusk! If I think of anything to add I'll definitely let you know. :)

in Saving / Reusing a Wiki March 2011

Peter, Go to your campaigns home page. Then click the "edit Settings" button on the right in the Manage Campaign box. On this new page scroll aaaaaallll the way down and you'll see something that says Campaign Backup. Hope that helps, DarkMagus

in linking items March 2011

Yes, however you have to use the item slug instead of the item name. The format should look like this: [[:item slug numbers]] When you visit the item's page the slug should be displayed on the right hand side of the page. Hope that helps…

Rase that is an awesome idea!!

in Is there a Textile Tag for linking to individual Adventure Log Posts? March 2011

No problem *BV*. I only noticed it on one of my campaigns with very few wiki pages. I can see how it would be very well hidden on any site with a lot of wiki pages.

in Dragon Lore or Dragon Bore? March 2011

This is really cool Twiggy, thanks. I might have to throw a dragon into my next campaign now... Dusk, demons vs dragons sounds AMAZING! Sounds like the perfect time for some Two Steps From Hell too!

in Saving / Reusing a Wiki March 2011

There is a campaign backup that you can download. I've never done this before so I'm not sure about the format. I'm not sure how you'd go about importing it into a new wiki though... This is a good question. I'm going to be watching this thread to s…

in how do you balance between computer and notes March 2011

I don't use OP at the table, I'm more of a notebook kinda guy. I feel there's something about the somatic learning process which clicks with me. If I write down my shopping list I don't ever look at it while in the market. Writing down my adventures…

Well, Dusk, sounds like a good origin story to me.

in Hey everyone. March 2011

I want to echo twiggyleaf's greetings and warm wishes. I don't know how I missed this post, but I'm glad he resurrected it. Also, you're playing in Rase's campaign right? How's that going? "DarkMagus":http://www.obsidianportal.com/profile/Dar…

DML you just reminded me that back in the day we colored in our dice with neon colors that would glow under the black light because we'd have candlelight and a black light for lighting. Characters sheets were also more readable under the black light…

in Loki Has Arrived March 2011

Wow, between your number of years playing and your work with Planscape and Spelljammer you sound like a professional gamer! I was a player in an AMAZING planscape camapign many years ago, but due to college I missed a huge chunk of the game, my c…

Thanks for the kind words DML. :) The community here is just so friendly and helpful it really makes ya want to help out whenever you can. I have received tons of help and advice either directly or just from reading past questions that others answer…

Try using the page link icon (its the folder with the piece of paper in your tool bar and when you scroll over it it says Wiki Pages). Down the bottom are your Adventure Logs. The inserted addresses have short notation not the long notation of using…

in Embedding video March 2011

I know nothing about this. However I know there are some very kind people who frequent the forums who DO know how to do this. What I can tell you is that I've seen questions about embedding videos in these forums before, "here":http://forums.obsidia…

in Retiring PCs without breaking your game March 2011

That's a tough spot to be in Gnunn, I don't envy you. I was in a similar situation when two of my four players in the Ilumnos Series took a road trip which ended up with them moving out of state, and for the final chapter of the game! I had them …

in PAX East!?! March 2011

Don't sweat it Dusk. I'm not sure I'll be in the area next year, with grad school coming up I may be moving a significant distance. Maybe we can make up for it sometime if I join Rase's campaign for a session or two as a guest roleplayer. My bro…

in Remove Where We Game map? March 2011

I love your idea, "Setting the location somewhere dumb is the best bet for now. Antarctica is a sweet idea. Or Hell, Michigan, which is basically like telling your stalker to go to hell."

Sold out.... That was a nice thought Dusk. :) Well, you and Rase have a great time and tell us all about it.

in PAX East!?! March 2011

I was going to try to talk my group into going Saturday but didn't realize that you could only go by getting tickets on line (what happened to tickets at the door?) and so Saturday is sold out. Then I was thinking I could maybe talk just one other p…
