People become lesbians for no reason! beetnemesis Send a noteboard - 17/09/2012 04:34:20 PM
I love those games, but those books were some of the worst pieces of crap I'd ever seen.


You might give Dunja ideas. She does enjoy reading my reactions to crappy lit }<img class=' />
I amuse myself.

This may be one of the most dire reviews you shall ever read Larry - 09/09/2012 09:12:25 PM 2384 Views
Certainly one of the most original, you get points for that. Legolas - 09/09/2012 10:39:00 PM 1632 Views
Well... Larry - 09/09/2012 10:57:25 PM 1639 Views
A review of a D&D bestiary could be more dire. Stephen - 09/09/2012 11:29:17 PM 1480 Views
Perhaps Larry - 09/09/2012 11:50:20 PM 1569 Views
Hey now. Owlbears are awesome. lord-of-shadow - 11/09/2012 02:35:28 AM 1821 Views
That page is painful to behold Stephen - 11/09/2012 03:09:29 AM 1580 Views
They are popular as they are fun, easy reading books Wibble - 10/09/2012 12:11:24 AM 1559 Views
"Popular", "Fun," and "Easy" doesn't have to be equated with poorly-written Larry - 10/09/2012 12:16:27 AM 1800 Views
Poorly written by what standard? Wibble - 10/09/2012 12:29:17 AM 1643 Views
By the standards of what I enjoyed as a nine year-old? Larry - 10/09/2012 01:04:12 AM 1596 Views
So like I said, by the standards of Elitist Literary Snobs Wibble - 11/09/2012 12:03:08 AM 1666 Views
Nice attempt at sophistry, but alas, it fails Larry - 11/09/2012 12:38:24 AM 1609 Views
Was that meant to make any sense? Wibble - 11/09/2012 01:43:13 AM 1818 Views
Re: Was that meant to make any sense? Larry - 11/09/2012 01:54:23 AM 1608 Views
I'm with Wibble on this (big surprise) HyogaRott - 12/09/2012 03:07:53 PM 1690 Views
Heh. James - 12/09/2012 03:43:52 PM 1832 Views
Pretty much so Larry - 12/09/2012 04:19:35 PM 1785 Views
When did you put up that header? Stephen - 12/09/2012 04:35:20 PM 1624 Views
I didn't put it up Larry - 12/09/2012 04:51:32 PM 1523 Views
I shall tread lightly so. Stephen - 12/09/2012 06:15:51 PM 1638 Views
Larry - 12/09/2012 07:25:29 PM 1491 Views
+6 health? What game are you playing? Tom - 12/09/2012 07:52:52 PM 1545 Views
The Game of Life? Larry - 12/09/2012 08:23:53 PM 1605 Views
Re: Pretty much so HyogaRott - 12/09/2012 08:50:57 PM 1638 Views
You apparently do not read my blog/reviews much Larry - 12/09/2012 09:07:18 PM 1656 Views
Actually, I read them almost never HyogaRott - 13/09/2012 03:07:48 PM 1671 Views
I think my IQ dropped a little bit when I parsed what you said Larry - 13/09/2012 04:16:21 PM 1630 Views
Yep, your usual rebuttal... *NM* HyogaRott - 17/09/2012 02:14:56 PM 827 Views
No, not really Larry - 17/09/2012 06:25:15 PM 1469 Views
Yes, Yes, wrap yourself in arrogance and declare yourself correct until your opposite gets bored... HyogaRott - 17/09/2012 11:12:17 PM 1748 Views
Nah, I just wipe my ass with arrogance Larry - 18/09/2012 12:23:44 AM 2004 Views
The last word with me is rather difficult to obtain HyogaRott - 18/09/2012 02:48:03 PM 1554 Views
Don't try to argue with them. They've made their judgments. They are better than you. lord-of-shadow - 10/09/2012 09:36:17 PM 1588 Views
Defensive much? *NM* Larry - 10/09/2012 10:31:17 PM 866 Views
Perhaps. It's annoying, because I tend to agree with you guys - you and Tom and Stephen. lord-of-shadow - 11/09/2012 02:32:28 AM 1592 Views
The odd thing that there wasn't any belittling on my part -see other response. *NM* Larry - 11/09/2012 03:17:36 AM 781 Views
For the record, I wasn't trying to be condescending in my response. Tom - 11/09/2012 05:52:29 PM 1601 Views
He never said you couldn't enjoy it. Stephen - 10/09/2012 11:10:11 PM 1715 Views
Indeed Larry - 10/09/2012 11:17:20 PM 1579 Views
But they aren't. Wibble - 10/09/2012 11:48:14 PM 1614 Views
Prove it. *NM* Stephen - 11/09/2012 03:12:17 AM 793 Views
He also went on to compare liking the books to having the standards of a nine-year-old. lord-of-shadow - 11/09/2012 02:34:18 AM 1576 Views
You didn't read what I said very well then Larry - 11/09/2012 03:16:21 AM 1569 Views
You're right. In the context of this thread, I'm basically acting like a raving lunatic. lord-of-shadow - 11/09/2012 02:48:19 PM 1607 Views
It's not like any of us have ever been innocent 100% of the time Larry - 11/09/2012 03:49:22 PM 1580 Views
I believe that they were not meant for adults. Tom - 10/09/2012 12:30:05 AM 1604 Views
Very few of my friends were reading the books; some played the game, though Larry - 10/09/2012 01:06:07 AM 1571 Views
Basically, both get dubious kudos for trying something new by the dire standards of the day. Werthead - 10/09/2012 11:38:22 PM 1633 Views
Interesting point Larry - 11/09/2012 12:41:01 AM 1567 Views
Are you aware of the game's alignment rules? Some of the novels struggle with this. Werthead - 12/09/2012 10:58:37 PM 1632 Views
Not aware of it at all until now Larry - 12/09/2012 11:18:57 PM 1587 Views
How is that possible? Tom - 12/09/2012 11:28:33 PM 1564 Views
My dad was (and is) influenced by Evangelicals Larry - 13/09/2012 12:17:36 AM 1489 Views
Wait, so you didn't read the Chronicles first? Tom - 13/09/2012 02:12:13 PM 1492 Views
No Larry - 13/09/2012 02:18:03 PM 1552 Views
Well, it's sort of like starting Jordan at Lord of Chaos Tom - 13/09/2012 05:18:23 PM 1590 Views
Oddly enough, I started WoT at CoS in November 1997 Larry - 13/09/2012 05:56:04 PM 1502 Views
Chronicles is considerably weaker Werthead - 13/09/2012 11:14:38 PM 1581 Views
Needless to say, once I finish reading the Icewind Dale trilogy, I'm done with D&D Larry - 14/09/2012 12:38:47 AM 1723 Views
12 modules, not 15 Tom - 14/09/2012 02:55:39 PM 1767 Views
These threads are so much better than the rape threads! *NM* Dan - 12/09/2012 04:03:01 AM 894 Views
You're just waiting to see if I'll use hexameter in the next one *NM* Larry - 12/09/2012 04:32:31 AM 720 Views
When do we get to see some alexandrines? *NM* Stephen - 12/09/2012 12:41:29 PM 792 Views
Or quatrains? Larry - 12/09/2012 03:25:13 PM 1465 Views
And having now finished Dragonlance: Legends, its very own sonnet Larry - 13/09/2012 12:31:51 PM 1567 Views
At least you didn't read the Baldur's Gate novelizations beetnemesis - 14/09/2012 04:29:17 AM 1504 Views
Sssssh! Larry - 14/09/2012 05:10:19 AM 1557 Views
People become lesbians for no reason! beetnemesis - 17/09/2012 04:34:20 PM 1428 Views
I think my IQ dropped further upon learning of this Larry - 17/09/2012 06:29:29 PM 1447 Views
Baldurs Gate wooooo! Foxhead - 14/09/2012 04:13:34 PM 1688 Views
Eh, Star Wars Expanded Universe I could see reading. Some of them are supposed to be good beetnemesis - 17/09/2012 04:37:05 PM 1932 Views
Is the review dire because of the subject or the sonnet form? Foxhead - 14/09/2012 04:24:37 PM 1613 Views
Both Larry - 14/09/2012 04:36:59 PM 1527 Views
it would be unusual for someone to just randomly pick books like that up Foxhead - 14/09/2012 05:05:37 PM 1835 Views
Interesting scenario Larry - 14/09/2012 10:16:11 PM 1534 Views
Re: Interesting scenario Foxhead - 15/09/2012 09:55:59 AM 1794 Views
