DMing: 1 month anniversary
Posted by Yax on August 18, 2007
Yeah. I’m just like a parent with a newborn baby. I have to celebrate birthdays every month for 2 years before I start acting like a normal person and mention only annual anniversaries.

Your suggestions
If you have any suggestions of topics you would like to see covered, let me know.
Woohoo Party!!!!!!!!
Indeed.
BTW do a search on youtube for ”Unforgotten Realms” Totally D&D related and funny!
that Unforgotten Realms thing is funny!
but thats not wat we are here 2 celebrate, one month! Maybe thats why i had never found this site before on my many quests to find good dnd sites.
I dont know y but this site just clicked with me!
thanks Yax (is taht your real name?) for giving me to share the knowledge i dont have and take every one elses!
my mother just came in and through her fear of what happens online didnt like the idea that i was talking to people i dont know.
So i thought that maybe your could ahve a place were every one could tell a little bit bout them selves in or out of games??
like if they DM or PC and stuff like that and maybe if they are a PC who there DM is cause you seeem to DM most of these guys!
Just an idea…
Thanks for the kind words.
And I’ll look into a more interactive addition to the site. Maybe some kind of a guest book. I don’t think I want to manage a forum though. We’ll see.
how bout a talk bout birthdays, as in for PC’s. does any one else do that??
I usually keep track of time passing by having one player update a calendar. But I don’t think I’ve ever had a PC birthday.
oh well i do, and i have a god appear 2 them in a dream and give them a gift! I dont set a birth date at the start of a game i just do it when a player falls behind from the other PC’s skill lvl.
Do you use a normal calender or have different months and season lengths?
oh and the guest book sound good, your dont need a whole forum but just sum where that ppl can say a lil bit bout them selves so we know who the other ppl posting are!
About the calendar thing… I use our normal calendar. It’s just much easier to remember than any made up calendar. Depending on where the characters are the climate could vary within one season though.
got a nother random idea…
making your own class’ …. thats all i got, thought it might spark an idea though!
do i post 2 much stuff on here cause ive noticed in one weekend ive become the top poster.
There are never too many comments. I show the top commentators to reward them - especially those who have a web site because they will get a free link.
iw as sitting in science to day doing work on bloood, the teacher was talking about blood cells “fighting” it got me thinking, could u have 2 go inside someone to fight some sort of infection… if there was know other way! mind u thats a major shrinking spell!
spark a thought?
There was a movie about Dennis Quaid going into Martin Short’s body. I’m not sure what the title is - Inner Voyage?
I remember it as a decent movie but I must have been 12 years old last time I say that.
I was wondering if anyone know of a web site were i can post what i want a pc or npc to look like nd they will draw it for me??
You can check out this post about props for your game that mentions an RPG art website that takes requests.
He might charge for his services though.
