None of the above.


I knew of it but never got around to trying it.


Of course, I wouldn't even think of getting involved in it knowing that Ray has participated.

I prefer "Musk" scented D&D.  Always got compliments from the ladies back in the old days at Stake Dances.  They would ask what cologn I was wearing because I smelled so good.  I would then break it to them that it was just my deoderant.

Fraud! Jason you big fraud!!


Anyone that's anyone knows that one does not use D&D and go to stake dances... the two are diametrically opposed...


Besides, Who needs a stake dance when you have Tentondra the Barbarian Amazon princess and her Water Nymph servants dancing in the verdant meados of the Valley of the Mage?

Put down that game manual son and step away from the refreshment table... nice and slow like.  No need for anyone to get hurt here {suddenly does a James T. Kirk-ian karate chop as Ray begins to trust him, but misses, so Arbilad steps up and gives Ray a Vulcan nerve pinch... and Ray slumps unconscious dramatically... }

D&D flavored deoderant.  I never tasted it but it smelled great!  Kind of like my Bass O Matic after a couple of days sitting in the sun.

I play D&D (and other rpgs) almost every other saturday with a group of friends (yes, who are also LDS).

Right now I am DMing a Forgotten Realms campaign.

Interestingly though I do have an Uncle who thinks that D&D, Harry Potter, and the like are evil.

I picked the 'my parents thought it was of the devil option.' Now that I'm grown up, I used to play...until some DM got lazy.

Tee hee. Clever.

It's 5 cm, by the way (assuming I can read those other two figures as 3 cm and 4 cm).

Well, classic also infers that it is a fundamental right triangle, hence it is a zealot triangle and shall attract fanatical math users...


Arrrr!  Back to the depths ye scurvey conjurers of math!

Ancient stone masons used a compass and pythagorian therum to test their Squares to make sure they were actually 90 degrees and not 91 degrees or 89 degrees.  Almost the sole purpose of the compass was to test the square.  The square was one of the principle tools of early stone masons.  They didn't need to draw circles too much.  This is interesting for two reasons the first being that modern Freemasons use both as their symbols for their emblem and also for you endowed types that understand the significance of the two items.  For those who look for meaning in symbols the fact that you need the compass to have a true square and that without the square the compass is not needed may find the symbolism interesting.  For those of you who think that Pythagorous just invented a boring, useless tool for determining the length of the third side of a triangle.


Did I point out that I love math?

I must love math too, since I am going for a bachelors degree in it, and then probably grad school.

I looked on my computer that could work as an avatar, and thought that this works nicely.

I like the avatar since the question is "Find X" and the person simply interpreted the answer in the way he/she desired to interpret it.  It a life lesson in making sure you ask the right questions, either of other people, or the Lord.


Otherwise X = 5

Hey Ray... you could bring that adventure you had over at the other site here and see if that got more people taking part in Bountiful... of course, as Director of Advertising, I may have to insist on those folks contributing to the petty cash fund...   bwa-ha-ha!
