This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Wow, that's a impressive display of petty hatred over a trivial issue.
I dig the Pacman, though yeah the noise is a bit much. I love the Google logos as a rule. They're playful & charming.

Very clever way to recognize a pop culture icon.

I save all of the Google graphics; I have several years worth of .jpgs and .gifs tucked away in a folder, including an Italian Google maglia rosa graphic for the Giro d'Italia.
On weird fantasy: "The Otus/Elmore rule: When adding something new to the campaign, try and imagine how Erol Otus would depict it. If you can, that's far enough...it's a good idea. If you can picture a Larry Elmore version...it's far too mundane and boring, excise immediately." - Kellri, K&K Alehouse

I have a campaign wiki! Check it out!

When someone first mentioned the newest logo, I found it to be cute and amusing. I didn't really know what all of the craze was about -- until I let teh screen sit there for about 10 seconds and it everything became animated.

BEST GOOGLE LOGO....EVER! So much fun..and time consuming. :P
Table-top gaming takes me away from the realities of life: Forex Trading, paying bills and unimaginable amounts of dog slobber on your shoes. O___O

I never see this stuff, I always use the google search bar in Firefox.  I miss out on so much that way.
