There has yet to be any solid snowfall in either Ohio or New Jersey this season.

New Bond Movie in General

Saw it, about two weeks ago.
Those going in should be warned that they took a 60's story and set it in modern day. This is not supposed to look like Goldfinger or anything else with which the movie crowd is familiar.
Realizing this, I loved it. Call it a neo-Bond approach, call it a miss attempt at classic Bond, call it whatever: it's a fresh look at a familiar set of characters in a well-produced, well-directed, mostly solid film.
Craig is no Connery, true. Not even Brosnan hit that level. On the other hand, unlike his predecessors, he doesn't try to be like Connery, and the approach that he's taken appears to work.

Character Names in Blades of Avernum

Member # 6700

My first-play team takes four of the names of the PCs from the second two Exile games... as well as are the main Characters in my Fanfic.
Jenneke, Thissa, Adrianna, and Michael (all of whom were custom-classed to fit the character), to be specific.
My latest team is meant to take on a scenario evaluation challenge that I've put myself up to (see link below, scenario rating section), and is comprised of Hasskaa, Claire, Hrrmrrrr, and Tullin.
My god party is comprised of Sicarius and Grimm.
I've also used names like Darrin, Maxor, Joven, Barbera, Kolx, Melbie, Dyde, Cyrn, and various others over the years.

NPCs... of course, I make up my own names...
Though I have been tempted to throw a couple of enemies into the ranks...

--------------------
The Silent Assassin's party is made up of Grimm, Muerte, Mors Mortis, and Phil.
I think he has some sort of death wish for our next door neighbor.

Musical themes and inspiration... in Blades of Avernum
Lifecrafter
Member # 6700
Profile Homepage #0
You know, that music topic in the Avernum Trilogy forum got me thinking...
I listen to music when I play...
But I also listen to music when I work on design.
And really thinking about it, I've realized that I've come to associate a specific song or style of music with the different projects that I've done. In fact, I've realized that I find it difficult to work on a project without having assigned some form of unofficial theme to it.
This begs the question, of course... am I alone in this little habit?

So do any of you assign unofficial themes to your work?
(Or, as an alternate question) If you could assign an unofficial theme to any of your scenarios, what would it be, and why?

But I may be giving myself too much credit.
How about... "Idealist Philosopher"?

Alo is either Royalty or a Godfather due to his revered status, probably Royalty because he actually gets his hands dirty.
But he posts far too often to be an Ent.

DV is... well, DV.
Was there some sort of "Exemplary Citizen"?
How about Boy Scout? He can start fires...

Avatars would make life interesting.
What would be really nice would be if we could choose a personal option as to whether or not said avatars would be visible, to help those with dial-up.

Something more stable along the lines of board software would be nice, though I have no idea where to go with that.

HTML support seems to have its advantages, however, even the slightest amount of thinking in that regard leads to the conclusion that its abuse will lead to more problems than conveniences.

Personally, I could care less about a PM utility. I get IMed and e-mailed more often than I get PMed.
