Help adding more detailed map
July 2012
Unfortunately I think you're right there. That map site is pretty banging, though. Good find! But yeah, it looks like you'll have to link out or possibly do an html image map if you want it to be directly on the site. I've used "this site":http://ww…

Is OP right for my community?
July 2012
I usually use the upload for pictures so I can drop them into the wiki easily. I believe any member can upload a file, but I'm certain there's a mb cap on what you can upload. I would dedicate a wiki page to a template, ie "Template Page" so all …

Adventure Brainstorm: Sold Into Slavery
July 2012
Check out this bit on "Wallcreepers":http://creagrus.home.montereybay.com/wallcreeper.html. I'm too tired to type out some ideas, but check out the birds talons and the fact that when the wings are closed it has a very gray coloring, but when they'r…

Is OP right for my community?
July 2012
Any member can create wiki pages, and you can set multiple people to be co-GMs (which allows them to edit the GM specific info, not sure on the calendar events). The primary account member must be an Ascendant member. I recommend using google doc…

Help adding more detailed map
July 2012
I'm going to have to go in with KVP on this one. Perhaps a link to your campaign and a link to your map so we can see what the code on the site is like and maybe figure a viable workaround. There are limitations to what code you can use in OP, but t…

Shared Creations
July 2012
Aw, thanks kvp. I miss you guys as well. I do show up often to read discussions, but unless they're particularly poignant I don't comment since it's early in the morning after I get off work. Coppermane's character and item is well thought out, f…

Shared Creations
June 2012
Since I'm currently not running a campaign I'm not visiting OP as much. But someone recently ran across Shared Creations and expressed interest in contributing, so I figured I'd give this a bump to make it easier to find and perhaps find some renewe…

I hate my players.
May 2012
Yeah, a lot of wisdom in this post from many experienced people. I'm pretty sure I can tell by your candor that this is the last desperate grasp to keep your group together, and that letting them go is probably the best answer. The idea of runnin…

Thanks! We actually finished the first part of the campaign, but I do need to go back and add some adventure logs and a recap or something. If you need anything let me know ^.^

C'mon, isn't that what copy and paste is for?! Tsk tsk, so lazy ;) But seriously, once a name if chosen and established, shortening it is a natural occurence.

Death of a player "Character" [no one was actually harmed in the making of this post]
April 2012
I actually died this past sunday. And my body was desecrated by one of the other PCs. And by "desecrated" I mean "mated with." We play with a bunch of sick moddlefockles. I hate my friends Q.Q

Firearms in 4e?
April 2012
In the 3.5e DMG they actually make reference to using futuristic weapons on pages 145-146. Table 5-4 introduces renaissance weapons. Tim's stats look very similar to the ones found in the DMG. As for you, dlaporte, I've done wonders with alchemis…

Nah, they're 3.5e. Well, the site with the weather generator has some 4.0 random generators as well, so bookmarking that might come in handy. With creative rulebending you should be able to turn the concepts in frostburn to 4.0.

RPG business model advise
March 2012
A kickstarter may still be the way to go here, even if it isn't pretty. If the system is sound, good circulation through multiple RPG forums will get people to buy the $1 alpha. It would be key to include product reviews in these. The most entici…

color attributes to character slug links. possible?

Sometimes old fashioned gets the job done. That's really all there is to it. That being said, though, whenever I make a new page (when I remember, anyway) I have a separate document where I have all my base code saved. You could put every charact…

It's definitely important that you coax her into the leadership role. She may not know the rules, but that's okay. Let her fudge stuff and tell her every step of the way "it's an open world, do whatever you think your character would do. Everything …

Should random encounters be level appropriate?
March 2012

This is definitely one of the things were skill challenges (as mentioned above) fit in very well. The thing to really look at when it comes to random encounters is not just your world, but the rules you're running them from. ((_The next few bits …

Also Sandstorm and some of the Forgotten Realms settings are desert-based (The Serpent Kingdoms, if memory serves) . You may be able to spurn some brilliance from those sources as well.
