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.

Quote from: Koltar;276306Thats been my nickname for that series ever since a night some friends and I were watching ST: DS9 and we kept ordering delivery pizza. The hostess kept playing tapes of NEXT GEN she had as well for people that arrived late to the impromptu party.

 Ever since then, the show got nicknamed '  DEEP DISH NINE' by those of us who were there.


Sorry about the confusion.

Here is my Christmas swag that I purchased with cash given to me (about $100 from various relatives).  All prices are in USD.  All-in-all, I am quite happy with my loot. :)

My FLGS was holding a 20% sale off used RPGs and supplements.  So, I picked up some ecclectic stuff:

  • AGENT X (Mind Interactive, 1999)- $6.80
  • Alternity Science Fiction Adventure Game (TSR, Inc., 1999)- $7.96
  • All Flesh Must be Eaten, Revised Edition (Eden Studios, 2007)- $12
  • Manhunter (Myrmidon Press, 1993)- $3.96
  • Manhunter: Into the Bloodhood (Myrmidon Press, 1994)- $3.96
  • Spacemaster: Privateers (ICE, Inc., 2000)- $11.96
  • Middle-Earth Role Playing (ICE, Inc., 1986)- $3.96
  • SLA Industries (Nightfall Games, 2000)- $11.96
  • Unknown Armies (Atlas Games, 2002)- $15.96
My local toy and hobby store has some RPG stuff, but it seems like they are trying to sell it off.  I picked some odds-and-ends RPG materials that were new for 75% off.  Here is that stuff:

  • Trinity Field Report: Extrasolar Colonies (White Wolf Publishing, Inc., 1998)- $1.00
  • Trinity Field Report: Alien Races (White Wolf Publishing, Inc., 1998)- $1.00
  • Gaming Frontiers Volume 4 (United Playtest, Inc., 2003)- $1.00

WOW - I Never saw those sketches. That version of the Muppet Show was on so briefly I believe my work schedule stopped me from catching that.

It was really was a nickname friends & I had for the show...... although it is a natural pun and slip of the tongue possibility.

Privateers and Gentlemen and Mutant Future.

To be fair, I had to request the latter.

P&G, btw, is printed from a scan of the original books. As if the small print isn't enough, your eyes have to adjust to odd artifacts, ink shadows, and a certain jaggedness to the letters... to say nothing of the trademark FGU style.
Don\'t forget rule no. 2, noobs. Seriously, just don\'t post there. Those guys are nuts.

Speak your mind here without fear! They\'ll just lock the thread anyway.

Quote from: Venosha;276296Then a friend of ours heard how my husband was irritated with Dread, and the use of I believe a Jenga like structure to play the game....well that friend thought it would be cute to buy us a colorful Jenga set in case we decide to pick up Dread...which is very doubtful or in my husbands language "Fuck that!"

I agree with your husband.
