The Cupcake Muskateers Tavern welcomes You

Different shot of lightning storm, no filter.

Then had extra time between appointments, so hit some yard sales.

Sometimes ya just gotta buy a thing cuz it is what it is, even tho you have no idea what you're gonna do with it. Yet.

(It's exactly 1 foot between opposing facets.)

Totally empty inside? No candle holder or something obvous like that?

Your lightning storm seems rather diffused; that is a lovely dodecahedron.

I've been using the time-lapse setting, then clipping frames from that. Just a phone cam, and not one of the fancy (expensive) good ones.

The lamp... well, lemme grab a different angle. brb.

There's a spot for a something to fasten in. I'll probably fix something up with LEDs or such to minimize heat.

Oh, yeah. Watched the D&D movie last weekend.

It was... okay'ish. Most of the funny &/or well-done pieces were already shown in the trailer. So better than the last ones (low bar) but could've/should've been much better.

I just started watching that movie this morning, but was interrupted. I should go finish it.
Re the lamp, I believe they make LED bulbs whose color and mode you can change from an app on your phone.

Hey all. Gotta jump in on the movie review banter. I watched it with my wife, two sons and a friend. We all liked it. Its by FAR the best D&D movie ever done and it had excellent camera work, color and artwork. I walked out saying THAT WAS FREIKIN GREAT! Some genuinely funny stuff too. Movie was BRIMMING with personalities.

However -- I didnt feel it was on par with the Lord of the Rings or the Harry Potter storylines and thats really sucked to me.

Im also letdown that they did NOTHING to support DDO. At LEAST a mention at the end of the movie would have made SENSE and been such a MONSTER WIN for SSG.

Overall a MUST-SEE for DDO players.

I really like the movie, too. The sun was high in the sky when CD posted, so that may be why he sounded like a grumpy old curmudgeon.

Ba ha ha...

I enjoyed it, I sincerely hope there is a special edition DVD with the dice roll in the corner for particular attacks/skill checks. It would be pretty funny for instance to watch the scene with the mage repeatedly failing his umd check on the helm and just see a scroll of poor rolls. Or the bard at the beginning somehow succeeding at his bluff/diplo check on the judges.

 

[cdbd3rd]

Hey, I didn't say I DIDN'T like it!

"Okay'ish" is still decent praise. I just think it could've been so much better with modern tech and such good historical examples of how NOT to do a D&D movie.

Let's see how the next one goes.

"...like a grumpy old curmudgeon..." Excuse me , he is a grumpy old curmudgeon!!!!

Pretty much this myself as well.

Hmmmmm, I think some of us may need a NAB rules reminder.

I really liked this one so I had to post it here too:

*wanders in to a sparkly clean cafe and looks totally dumbfounded*

Ok... who let in the cleaning warforged???
It's taken me years to pollute that corner over there making it just right for my specter to haunt this old smelly Tavern... No.... I'm lost...

 

[Issiana]

and why am i suddenly a "new member"???
Who stole my sig file???
argh........ panic.... worlds ending.....

*reaches for suitcase nuke*... must... reset.... world.....

 

[Issiana]

Ah, much better.
My sarcastic side has a new outlet

 

[Issiana]

now that my mild panic and sudden desire to end the world has been shelved... *mutters* (for the moment)

I can now return to the original reason for the visit.

Thelanis has a new Gnome artificer ... ME! ​

Several years on and I can still remember how things go... mostly... Although still a little confused over the change from elemental weapons to "imbued" dice. But i'll get there i guess.
