  Re: 12 Volt train motors and DCC
 
(...) Oh, and on my list of reasons, I omitted - egregiously fabricating past history - spreading falsehoods about people's signatures because no such thing ever happened. The "++Lar" started because Todd used to sign his posts "--Todd" and I (...) (22 years ago, 3-Dec-02, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.off-topic.fun)
 
  An unfortunate typo
 
I almost shudder to mention this, since the underlying debate is serious and highly charged, but a CNN article about race and affirmative action included a really inopportune misprint, in grand Amos-n-Andy style: "At issue is whether race be used as (...)

(...) If you are trying to say that Ken is trying to say that the basketball minifigs aren't a good product, please tell him to say so. I, for one, have once had an accident which caused me to end up using crutches and really* do not appreciate your (...) (22 years ago, 2-Dec-02, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)

  Re: Herring
 
(...) You didn't get what you searched for? Must have been a red herring. Or maybe when you asked for more they didn't understand because they were hard of herring? If I just triggered a fishy-pun-fest, I'm gonna make like a grunion and run... (...) (22 years ago, 29-Nov-02, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)
 
  Re: Herring
 
It's that time of year when I post of herring. Ekastor! On my second trip to the supermarket in Wisconsin with my niece to buy last minute items, I picked up a jar of herring. The selection was very poor, I was accused of being some kind of (...) (22 years ago, 29-Nov-02, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)

  Re: Lego RPG DraK'en.
 
(...) Well, not techincally debate. (although this discussion has given me some interesting ideas already, so I guess that counts as viable imput.) (...) Well, as long as someone appreciates it. If you do get a chance to review the rules (or anyone (...) (22 years ago, 27-Nov-02, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)

(...) But I'm not. Really I'm not. Of course, not that I have ever worried about such a thing: (URL)Personally I've never even seen a green one. I have about four of the (...)

  Re: Lego RPG DraK'en.
 
(...) That shows an area where a computer based game can get almost as good as a traditional RPG. This actually points out the existence of two forms of computer game, well three actually. One if the traditional single player game. Another is a (...) (22 years ago, 27-Nov-02, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)
 
  Re: Lego RPG DraK'en.
 
(...) One thing I've really missed from my college days is the time spent discussing rules and such. I think it really does help the game play to have such discussions, though not at the same time you're trying to actually play the game, and not (...)

  Re: Lego RPG DraK'en.
 
(...) When you play do you keep an AIM window(s) open to the rest of your party or whatever? That helps a fair bit I think... (That, and when Nik and I are playing, we're either just down the hall or side by side) (22 years ago, 27-Nov-02, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)
 
  Re: Lego RPG DraK'en.

  Re: Lego RPG DraK'en.
 
(...) Sorry Matt, I for one have been enjoying the discussion on classification and haven't thought of it as a debate so much as an intellectual digression. (...) Like Frank, I've gotten a bit distracted with the side conversation, and also have (...) (22 years ago, 27-Nov-02, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)
 
  Re: Lego RPG DraK'en.
 
(...) I would argue that NWN is about as close to a true RPG as has yet been done on a PC... it is a pretty accurate embodiment of the AD&D 3 rules, it allows for a specific dungeon master role, you are quite concerned with character advancement, (...)

My actual gaming preference is towards RPGs (which (...) (22 years ago, 27-Nov-02, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)
 
  Re: Lego RPG DraK'en.

Okay...I didn't intend for the definition of said RPG to flare into debate, however, I've received little if, no comments or suggestions besides the problem with the classification system of my game. (otherwise, I wouldn't have posted this to (...) (22 years ago, 26-Nov-02, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)
