The holidays are coming up and I'm thinking of taking a couple of nights to run a Basic D&D module on IRC for the good boys and girls of chat on a first-come first-serve basis. All you budding little Fighters and Priests and Halflings, sharpen your blades and your number 2 pencils, pack your spell books and spiral notebooks, and get ready for adventure!

    I've been sick the past couple of days. Knowing my luck it won't be fatal and I'll be getting well soon. In fact I'm feeling better already. Oh well.

    Hmm, Big British Business bugged by bloke blowing bargaining with Brussels.

    I suspect that when Big Business is concerned at your actions, you may have played it bad.

    Keep on the Borderlands is my favorite store-bought RPG adventure of all time. For any system. Gygax was freaking brilliant.

    Well, yeah. He's basically left the UK at the mercy of Brussels, and guaranteed that the EU will be resistant to offering any kind of assistance or concession should the UK need/want one in future.

    I make the point because his stated reason was to protect British business, and they don't feel he has achieved this.

    Meanwhile the SDLP is encouraging the First and Deputy First Ministers to meet with their Scottish and Welsh counterparts and ask Cameron to explain himself. I suspect this week shall be interesting.

    I now don't know how likely such a four way throwdown will be, for The DUP seem to be throwing their weight behind Cameron (and the First Minister is of the DUP). :?

    ahahahahahahahaha EXCELLENT

    I made a friend about 5 months ago that if he didn't cut his hair for a year I'd give him 100 pounds.

    If he did cut his hair he owed me a beer.

    He cut his hair. HE IS WEAK, and I am up one beer! :D

    it's a really great module and I loved that they made a 4e update of it.

    I don't know if it'll be what I use - I might also go with Village of Hommlet or Night's Dark Terror or one of those other classics - but it's in the running.

    This bet does not sound particularly even in value, although I am pleased for you that you won.

    It took a LOT to convince him to try doing it.

    But over the last few months he's been constantly asking me that "if I do this, you will pay up right? RIGHT?" to which I have not said a word.

    The lack of confirmation eroded his will and he finally cut it.

    Clearly Daxon goes to bizzaro-uni. In my day the issue was people not having haircuts, like 75% of my (mostly male) course had long hair. It was awful. Then we graduated and one by one they all got adult haircuts, and often this resulted in them suddenly having success with girls.

    And you'd shave people's heads in bets, not let them keep their ugly locks.

    maybe in physics this is the case

    in more socially well-adjusted courses we know how to look good

    All I remember about Newcastle was that I faced an unexpectedly difficult language barrier. And that I had to watch a football match where I wasn't allowed to drink.

    Yeah, singing as a zombie plague is a funny idea but for me, it was too much suffering through the songs and not enough being funny. I understand that if the songs were anything but awful it would have defeated the concept, but there must have been a middle way that would have let them get some jokes in.

    I am currently hidden away in a University building. My life as an academic seems to be visiting a series of buildings which all essentially look the same. I drove down a couple of nice streets to get here, but it does kind of feel like I could be anywhere in the country.

    Also, I need more coffee. And drivers on the M6 are mental and I am surprised I wasn't involved in an accident.

    EDIT: also, the drive isn't actually that bed, barring other drivers, so if I don't get snowed in at my Mum's, I think it'd be cool to meet up in Manchester with Mojo and RMS if we can organise it.
