Basically, there's a lot of things that could be
improved. I just kinda wanted to know what everyone thinks is the most
important thing to work on. Everyone seems to have their own channeling
system, their own version of the blademaster, and everything else. What do
you think? -------------------- This is an old thing, boy. Older than Aes Sedai.

I'm in favor of more campaigns myself. I'd like to
see more of what other people are doing in the campaign setting, how they
deal with different parts of the world, etc.

I think many of the other things like channeling
systems have been talked to death, but I think everyone could use new
campaign ideas to spruce up their own campaign. More than just encounters,
but ideas on extra themes to weave into a campaign. |

I wanted to do this poll for several reasons. First
of all, as I'm doing my website, it helps me know what I should focus
on. Secondly, as we post threads here at these forums, sometimes things seem a little dead. Perhaps we should steer our threads toward what is needed to enhance and improve the game in these categories, and especially the ones that seem most desired. I'd love to see more posts that have new ideas for weaves and encounters, and also campaign ideas and plotlines, and even links to written campaigns! As for channeling systems, I can think of at least five completely unique ones off the top of my head, and the classes have been revised at least a handful of times. I guess it's a call-to-attention poll, to bring us all to awareness to what we all want to see more of. I love these forums and this game, and I think that if the creative people here gave just a tiny bit of effort, we could have several books' worth of ideas and new stuff, and campaigns. -------------------- This is an old thing, boy.

TRWB - could you change the color scheme on your
site? That black on dark green look is very nearly unreadable.
Thanks. But it's pretty clearly campaigns and adventurers that I'd be looking for; there are already way more alternate channeling systems and classes than I know what to do with (and the one I threw into the ring myself was designed to reduce the number in my game, at least). -------------------- |

Black on dark green? It's not supposed to be black on
dark green! It's supposed to be green on light tan. If it's looking like
that, I'll definately change it. Sorry about that, everyone. I'll get on
it right away. -------------------- This is an old thing, boy. Older than Aes Sedai.

Funny, on my brouwser (IE6), it is dark green on light green and it looks fine. What brouwser are you using? | ||

I'm still gonna work on new schemes, though, because
I want everyone to be able to see it fine.

I didn't look too closely then; I guess it's dark green on this greenish-brown thing now. But whatever the colors are, they've got a horrible contrast ratio. There's a reason why everyone uses black on white (or, rarely, white on black). Brown backgrounds don't work well unless they're really light; green text only works if it's bright and on black background (and even then, it brings back bad memories of DOS and text-mode terminals, so it's probably a bad idea). Both colors are too dark to work well with a light alternate, and are too light to work with dark alternate. obAside: This isn't just me being snarky; I'm a web developer in my day job.

No doubt, and you didn't seem narky or whatever. I
don't want the color scheme to be a distraction, and you're not the first
complainer. -------------------- This is an old thing, boy. Older than Aes Sedai.

OK my two coppers More campaigns/encounters that involve political intreagues and less combat One of the things I like most about RJ's world is that it's not all about the fighting but the d20 system is not lending itself to political intreague to my mind... Maybe it's just me hitting a brick wall that has AD&D written across it in blood-red spray paint... ![]() I do think the idea of us GM's posting our campaign stories a lot though, the ability to borrow from like-minded great minds is always good. ~llewin |

Campaigns. Not only are they more likely to be used
and more fun to write, but you can sneak in all the others in your
campaign world descriptions. -------------------- Honorary Paladin of the Lawful Naughty If I seem to hate the d20 system, its only because I hate the system. Actually I just hate 3e, its biased me against the system. I rather like WoT. |

For those of you that haven't made the treck to my
site, I am trying to slowly post all of my notes that I have taken for my
campaign on line, so feel free to check that out. Its in my effort to
contribute and all. ![]() Also, I have written up an adventure, but dont have Adobe Acrobat, and would really like to have it on-line as a PDF file rather than as a regular webpage. My question is this, since I've never used Acrobat: is it easy to convert Word files to acrobat? Is it something that somebody could do quickly, and if so, is there somebody who has it that might be willing to? If its not easy, dont worry about it, I'll eventually post it on a normal page, its just going to bloody long that way. Cheers. -Z -------------------- Legends of Darkness Are Not Always Myths - An Ongoing

I voted for encounters. More campaigns would
certainly be nice too but, my personal opinion is that the game is most
sorely lacking in the monsters-to-thrash department. |

I might be able to convert it, Zarozynia. I'd need it
to be .txt or .wps format. Email it to me if you want me to. Yeah, I agree that more monsters-to-thrash are needed, though I don't remember which I voted for anymore. I think I voted for Other. But yeah, that's why I'm trying to do the Encounters Handbook. -------------------- This is an old thing, boy. Older than Aes Sedai.

You can email it to me, I can convert from word to
PDF as I have full acrobat at work. If you want to you can also look at OpenOffice which allows conversion to PDF as well. This is free to download. Thomas -------------------- If it isn't broke don't fix it. |

i use the monster manuals for lots of monsters i own
I, II, III they have proven very useful as has d20 modern but i agree more
monsters would be good as would more adventure moduals as would a 3.5
conversion (but thats asking alot) oh and alot more weaves but you can
easily edit D&D spells for that -------------------- ![]() |

heh...I have my group's campaign written up as a
log...actually more of a story at times, but people could possibly take
something from it. I don't know...*will get a second opinion before
stripping it down and using it as example* Oh...and I have Acrobat (on this computer in fact! Yay!), so no worries -------------------- Slayer II The Computer OF DOOM: (Slayer-Isam&
