That sounds like a great campaign! I always wanted to try out a DnD game, I just did not know enough people!
When we started to play Rifts, we would have to do it behind the school gym because many people accused us of Devil Worship.
Yessss... I had a folder dedicated to my findings on people I met online.. surprisingly... I only ever discovered one person to have lied.. this being the Internet.. .. generally speaking.. you would suspect most would lie.. but webcams are wonderful things.
I stick with Atheism, personally... I also like it to be publicly known..
Satan worshipers... as if to suggest you could only ever worship the Christian evil deity.. but such is the Christian way of thinking..
I've always loved simple games, like checkers. Used to play with my brother a lot, though I know he has gotten better at it than me. I'd also play against classmates at school and always beat everyone. Some kids said that I cheated.
And, I guess this will make me sound geeky, and that's okay! But back when I was in the 4th-5th grade and Pokemon were really popular here (all the cool kids collected them ) I did collect cards then. Mostly because I loved the pictures, and the holographic ones. I still have them all, too. ^_^; Maybe one day I'll sell them, though I doubt they'd be worth much.
I've never understood people's reasons for lying. Though I've met people who simply liked playing as a 'girl,' per se. I have seen people gain favors this way, like if they were playing an online game and received special treatment... Though that does backfire too, in the instance that people are sexist or may believe that "NO GURLZ EGZIST ON DA INTARWEBZ!!11!"
If one wishes to keep their gender secret, that is fine with me! I do not judge based off gender, as that does not define a person. Though, it still is fun to be curious about such things.
Hey now, Christians aren't evil! Unless I misunderstand what you're saying, my apologies in advance if this is the case. However, I too will generalise and say that most people that I have met that are strongly into their religion are narrow-minded when it comes to things. Religion, as most things, is controversial. (which is why I stick it in my list of things to never discuss! :O)
Anyhow, that reminds me of what my mother said. (yes, protestant here) She did say that DnD was evil and such, and you supposedly associate with demons. So yeah, for the longest time I did believe that. But now I know better, as having talked to people who play it, and they're not bad people. As far as the game goes, not bad either to my knowledge, but having never played it, I'll never know.
Oh, no no! Not necessarily evil, just... most only accept their religion as .. well.. truth.
Even then, me saying most is another generalisation.
But being raised around.. bad Christians has all but soured me to any kind of religion.
Yeah, I can understand that. I've met other Christians that drove me up the wall. Reasoning with someone who strictly believes one thing while you were taught another is, well, more than frustrating. Hard to get my point across, so smiling and nodding in false agreement is usually what ends up happening. Arguing is something I always try to avoid, y'know?
I try to keep an open mind when it comes to most things, though it is amazing how some people refuse to consider some things...
Sorry, we're going waaaay off topic, aren't we? >_>
So, uhm. I love card games. Like Solitaire, GoFish, Memory. I think it's called Memory, anyways... Just flip over all the cards and line them up in rows and remove the jokers, then pick two cards at a time and try to get matching pairs, and if it doesn't match, then just flip them back over. The cool thing about cards is that you can just make up any game you want with them.
I just have to respond to this; every alarm bell in my mind went off to this one:
With people that ignore facts yes, but ALWAYS stand by your rational arguments! Not speaking out is agreement with your adversary!
On topic, I used to be all about Yahoo's Super Text Twist, and playing Cranium, but I've completely dropped out of those. Every once in a while I'll do some Sudoku or Kakuro, but anymore I just love creating things of my own too much to play much of anything!
I .. try to do this, I can appreciate what other people believe because we all live our lives as we wish, yet also mock it, but I certainly do not want to start some kind of heated religious debate.. ever, I know how stubborn I can get during an argument and how those in religion can be just as stubborn.. this stubbornness from them.. only increases my rage as I find what fuels them to be so laughable.., so this'll be all.
I first off thought you were male.. I don't even know why.. but this boyfriend mentioning led me to re-evaluate my initial thoughts. x3 I think I'd rather discover myself somehow..
Back onto that big old topic.. Solitaire, brilliant game, I play it when I feel the most.. alone.. haha. Funny that.
Bowling is always a laugh when amongst friends, Darts is a real challenge, I pride myself in being able to lean pretty far forward .. hah... though it probably breaks rules.

Oh man, I just moved to a area where a bowling alley is right across the street! I have not played in years but I think I will try again for the laughs!
