*SIGH* I'm never good at top ten lists, but who can resist!

Citizen Kane! <- Not really. Don't think I've ever seen the whole thing :-)

In no particular order....

Amelie
Kontroll
Strictly Ballroom
A Little Romance
The Thing (John Carpenter version)
Conan
Excalibur
Skin Deep
Lord of the Rings
Sixteen Candles


Crap, ten already :-(

When I look at that "knife" I see the guy using it stabbing himself in the side more than hurting his enemy. People who play too many anime or Warhammer inspired games should not create weapons.

You are pulled from your pool and are getting pushed down a dark tight tunnel.
You feel something grasping your head.  
Make a SAN roll. 76. Not good.  You lose 4 SAN.
All of the sudden, shockingly cold air replaces the constriction.  
Your eyes snap open to intense white light.  
You are surrounded by enormous white figures with no mouth or nose, just eyes.
Make a SAN roll. 82 ... Maybe you should change dice?  You lose 7 SAN.
 You go temporarily insane.  You enter a catatonic state and just stare at everything.
One of these figures grabs you, while another cuts your feeding tube away with a sharp metallic object .
Make a SAN roll. 23.  Good roll.  You only lose 1 SAN.
The figure holding you lifts you in the air by your legs and strikes you hard on in the lower back.  You take 2HP damage.
Make a SAN roll.  Ohh, 98.  You lose 5 SAN and you go indefinitely insane.  
Your insanity is to cry incessantly for 1d6 ... 2 years.

Congratulations!!!

Totally Awesome!

And Congrats to Setherick

Granted:

You lose your job and have plenty of time to find new insurance, but you can't afford it anymore.

I wish I could magically stop the gulf oil leak.

Seems like NWOD is good from the APs I've seen here.

I have GURPS which I use for whatever, but it's not some people's cup of tea.

When I was a kid, Salem's Lot scared the heck out of me. Especially this scene. Out of context and year later it doesn't seem so scary

Do not microwave it!

Take out battery and let it dry out. Mine went into the pool with me one summer for a good 10 minutes. I took it out and let it dry overnight. Put the batt back in and it worked though the LCD was foggy. I took it to work (Electrical Engineering type place) and had them bake it for 20 minutes in the low temp testing oven. Good as new.

NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 3.5 epic level isn't broken! It rocks! Anyone who says it doesn't is a nazi furry lover. I'll have to smite them with my Katana!

What was I saying?

My group in 3.5 is going through the mid high levels now (they are currently 13th) and the mechanics are starting to get very hit or miss. I expect it to all fall apart onvce they hit actually epic level, at least without a bunch of tweeks.  They don't have a wizard or druid and just had a sorcerer (though multi-class so only 8th CL) join the group so they lack the true blasting capability.

Seems like 4E has a much better hold on this, though my 4E character is only 2nd level at this point :-)
