Man these are all fantastic, reminds me of the epic EVE online story of the guy scamming the others and then giving the money away are there any other good places to read D&D stories? I don't have the patience to learn the rules and get sperglord friends together

That line actually came up in a conversation with my friend, since she was really really unconvinced when I mentioned that I was bi (she thinks I'm totally gay).  "Do you even know what to do with a girl?" "Of course I do. You play with their boobs and fondle their whatnots."Apparently she found this less than convincing.

Oh god I've been in this game, except a lot less hilarious and not a very good story. Just a lot of spergy neckbeards all rolling sleight of hand v. spot and bluff v. sense motive a lot and just generally being assholes to each other while the DM goaded them on.

Shadow, you've just made the Republican primaries interesting again. I'm loving these guys as characters more than I ever could possibly in real life. This is amazing. I've shared a link to the compilation site on DnDOnlineGames; I think you've become an internet sensation. Congrats, and thanks!

I just want you to know you got me kicked out of my bedroom. I was supposed to be going to sleep, but I couldn't stop laughing and my wife pushed me out of bed onto the floor. I hope I'm not sleeping on the couch tonight.

"Handy Haversack" is my new favorite word, now. Now I just gotta figure out a way to work it into daily conversations. Also that last one really exemplifies the fact that the best D&D moments occur whenever a die-roll comes up as a one. /edit: Huh, so it's an actual thing. I just thought it was a play on the whole "gently caress you; got mine" mantra of stereotype Republicans.

Sizzler Manager posted:Originally Heward's Handy Haversack. But I thought sticking pointy things into extradimensional spaces was a risky proposition. Nah. Only sticking extra dimensional spaces inside other extra dimensional spaces can be dangerous sometimes. Handy haversacks are a poor mans bag of holding. It's pretty much the first magic item besides weapons and armor that most of my group tries to get. If my character uses lots of trinkets and baubles I prefer the haversack, since whatever item you are looking for is automatically on top.

Yawgmoth posted:That's only for the bag of holding for some reason. Putting a sword or the like has a 10% chance to puncture the bag, making everything in it fall out. Not in 3.5. Piercing it ruins it, but there is no % chance that putting a sword in it will break it.

Oh my god Catboy I've been dying since part 19. I'm in love with your Ron and Mitt and Herman, they're perfect. Catching up on this thread has been incredible. Also, I'm loving the D&D stories. I've only played like two games in my whole life, back in college like 6-7 years ago, and this is making me want to drive back to Oregon to have my buddy DM for me again.

You Mitt is really pitch-perfect in all regards. He's the guy at the table who always talks about how he has 18 charisma and is great at talking to people while also having absolutely no interest in genuinely roleplaying through diplomacy. He just wants to look at some math and roll, as though diplomacy is combat. (You characterized him well enough that this was obvious even before the episode where he pissed off the archduke.) It's an excellent mirror to his robotic, un-relatable campaign persona.

Oh man, I'm so looking forward to the next episodes. Romney's charisma stunts are the best. Just when I thought that ShadowCatboy took the cake for his speech in episode 19, Romney one-ups him with his redneck-pandering using "y'all" and "I eat grits because my chauffeur has such a great influence on me".

I should share a couple tales from the table someday. Unfortunately I have a tendency to be one of "those" players. Also this is crossposted from D&D: If you want to relive the amazing debacle of the 2008 McCain-Palin campaign in a behind-the-scenes reconstruction, you've gotta watch Game Change. It's playing repeatedly on HBO, but it might pop up on Netflix or Hulu sometime soon.  "How do you plan on maintaining our alliance with Great Britain on Iraq even though support for the war there is at an all-time low?" "I think... the United States has always maintained a great relationship with the Queen, and John McCain will continue to have an open dialogue with her." "...Uh, Governor? The Queen is not the Head of Government anymore, she's the Head of State." "...well then, who's the Head of Government?" "...The Prime Minister."  "I think we should start by prepping the Governor on Russian economic policy as it relates to post-Cold War tensions during the pre-Putin era." "I was thinking something a little bit simpler." "...How much simpler?"(tutoring Palin) *taps map* "THIS. Is Germany. They were the primary antagonists during World War I and World War II." *scribbles notes*I know that some say that Conservatives will use this film to lionize Palin further, while Liberals will use it to lambaste her. But I didn't get this at all. The way I saw it, everyone was playing fair, from McCain, to his advisors, to Palin, to the press. The problem wasn't any one individual's behavior. It was the collision of small-town values with the immense complexity of national politics. You can really see the immense psychological strain it put on poor Palin. She's not stupid, crazy, or evil. She just seems like your average soccer mom: sweet, polite, caring, and highly protective of her family's dignity. I would love to cook dinner for her and her family someday. I just wouldn't want her anywhere close to a position of power.

What you seem to forget is that an "average soccer mom" with as much stupidity and ignorance as she has is raising children to be just as stupid and ignorant as her. That qualifies for stupid/crazy/evil.

How does THAT work out? I understand that we like to encourage people to think differently and try to put a lot of emphasis on understanding, but to someone whose mindset is like Palin's, that just doesn't jive. She's not evil and crazy, she's just a person who got way, way over her head.

rotinaj posted:...You want an airhead to somehow magically teach her children to think differently than her and try to embrace the complete opposite of her personal morals? How does THAT work out? Quoted for accuracy. I hate palin and the idea of her being president is a lovecraftian nightmare. Expecting stupid people to raise their kids with anything but their own beliefs in unrealistic though, and it hardly makes anyone crazy and/or evil. But hey, there is always a chance that an acorn will roll far away from the tree.
