<br />*smaks self up side the head* oooh I bet Jeff is changing up the beads as we speak.<br />

<br />Yep, I believe he is. Thanks to that link you sent me. So you have only yourself to blame.  :evil6: :icon_tongue:<br /><br />Awwww, the "Ticket" tokens for 2003. I remember them well. Sorting them, stacking them, selling them. Too bad I didn't manage to keep one. I could sell it on eBay for a fortune and retire.  :toothy10:

At least I have the pictures so I can study up on creating the memory tricks...

yeah, memory tricks shouldn't rely on order, but on the design of the beads.  he can put them in any order he wants... i might still be able cast half way decent from my memory tricks from last year.<br /><br />the right tricks, and the spell is locked in memory.  sounds like spellcasting to me...

<br />

<br />I don't have the Death Star...but I do have the Star Destroyer expert X-Wing and expert Tie Fighter...<br />

<br /><br />(grinning) I got the Ultimate Collector's Series Rebel Blockade Runner.<br /><br />Lego still rules as the coolest toy ever, in my world.<br />

<br /><br />I got away with a BIG set once...(Star Destroyer was HUGE)...I could not convince the wife the Runner was not that big...hehehe

<br /><br />Totally!  <br /><br />Smallest bead = Piety<br />Largest bead = Faith<br />the wheel = Zeal<br />the C = Charity<br />the shell = Grace<br />the shield = Courage<br />etc.

*smaks self up-side the head again*  Now Jeff is going to make them all the same size, very similar shape and very plain...DOH!!!

Nah, because the DM's need to be able to tell them apart too.<br />hehehehe

As long as he dosen't bring back th bard book, anything is fair game.

I liked that thing... it made it interesting. The recent bard charts are to easy too memorize... that added a little healthy dose of guessing/fear into what you thought something was. Maybe a compromise between the two?

What it also added was unreadable tiny@$$ font in incredibly lowlight conditions. I was tearing my hair out by the end of it trying to decipher out that curvey elfscript.

I think it would be cool to bring back the Bard book - but have it be more useful. <br />For example, have a page in it with half a dozen symbols & meanings which WILL be used in the dungeon this year. Have a couple false clues, but put the icon of a red fish on those pages (anyone with a clever mind will recognize a red herring when they see it, won't they?) Have some real, useful clues. Hey - have some actual information about the quest - the sort of stuff which most party members gloss over when they watch the into video or listen to the intro actor. That way at least the Bard has a written re-cap about why we're here, and where "here" is. Put a riddle or an anagram in, which (if interpreted correctly ) will help the party. Sure, make the Bard work for his knowledge a little, but if you present a lot of useful information and the bard can only remember some of it, then it's more like remembering a lot of old semi-useful tales.<br /><br />Oops. Getting off topic a little here, aren't I?<br /><br />Thanks for the list of changes, guys.
