"Tell your DM you'd like to do the laundry, ask him to describe the results. Repeat a few games until everyone in the party is letting you do their laundry. One day apologize for putting a red sock in the only female character's laundry or the paladin without laughing. From that point on whenever the DM introduces a new NPC, apologize again about the pink clothes just to make sure no one forgets it."

Small Site Update
richardm 1/5/2009

Tonight I updated a few things, including the character vault pages, just trying to make things a bit easier to navigate around.

I'd love to get some responses about the 4e character vault, I've already had one person who isn't able to edit his characters, anyone else having that problem? If so, email me at rmathis  (put the appropriate symbol here) dndorks.com

4e Charactersheet .92 version Uploaded!
richardm 12/29/2008

Earlier this evening I uploaded the .92 version of the 4e character sheet in the vault.

If you're not registered, you can view my character, Larric the elven rogue here: http://dndorks.com/characters/viewcharacter555.aspx  

If you're registered, you can create a new character in the vault, here: http://dndorks.com/characters/default.aspx

Some of the major changes.

  • Import characters from the DDI character generator.  Why would you do this?   Create your character via the Wizard's Character Builder, then use the character in a forum game by importing the data into the dndorks character vault!  Likewise you could use the character vault to share your character online in general.
  • Manage/import powers.  The vault isn't very useful if you don't have a way to know what powers you have and how they work, so I built that this weekend too.
  • javascript, calculation, CSS updates.
Future want list.
  • Wide version for online viewing. 
  • Allow powers to be picked from previous versions.
  • Allow Portrait to be selected, which then overrides the forum avatar in pbf games.
But, most of the "future want list" gets pushed behind my real drive, which is the PBF game thread upgrade, I just had to do the 4e vault in order for the forum games to really support 4e games, since 4e is so "crunchy"

Thanks all, I hope everyone's holidays are going well, and if this is the last front page post, I hope everyone has a happy new year!
