I dont care much for the few damage counters you get in the starter packs, so I’ve made my own that I print out and laminate. I just remade them for the new version, and added bloodied symbols and some other things.
I like using damage counters as opposed to writing down the Hitpoints. Maybe it’s just a flimsy excuse to play with brightly colored objects? 
Still, pen and paper would still be needed to mark what the custom effects (a – j) means. And to write down which spells/abilities you have used.

Any suggestions would be appreciated

Gary Gygax died earlier this week. The father of Dungeons & Dragons and modern RPG’s, without him there would be no D&D, Neverwinter Nights, or even World of Warcraft. He was a true gamer, who played from the age of 5 to his death at 69. He will be missed.

I probably wont play World of Warcraft for at least 6 months now, so tonight I picked up on my Neverwinter Nights 1 campaign and finished chapter 1.. I must say the story so far and quests are extremely well design and much more fun than what I have played of NWN 2.
I bought the box with both expansions, so I figure I have LOTS of playtime left
I really like the graphics, nothing fancy still they look very nice (and NWN is one of the few games I can run at 100% graphics with this old computer), I tried some NWN2 Roleplaying, but most scenarios are for NWN1 which I did not have at the time. I might try some more Roleplaying when I’m done with the main campaign (With my Orcish barbarian).
I also played some Resident Evil 4 (on the Wii) tonight, I almost got used to the controls even tough I hate FPS games on consoles..

It’s officially summer. Me, Stacy and two friends went ocean kayaking today, just for an hour or so by the docks. And it was pretty nifty, I might join the kayak club to get free access to a ocean kayak, but the security course I have to take first probably wont be held again until Autumn 
In other news:
- Hopefully Nemi will be getting a new friend in 44 days (+ 6-8 weeks).
- I started to play WOW again (lvl62 priest FTW)
- I’ve not eaten any meat for 5 months
- I got a new sweeet monitor (Syncmaster 22″ widescreen)
- I won 2 out of 4 dungeons & dragons miniatures games in one sitting (new record )
- I watched all of Stargate (just waiting for season 4 of atlantis to start now)
- Almost done watching Battlestar Galactica Season 3 (Damn the end of season 2 and start of season 3 was totally insane)
- I started watching Dexter, which is pretty good so far

Aaah weekend again… Last night I finally got the batch of D&D miniatures I ordered, and this morning I made a list of what models I have.
I also bought Splinter cell: Chaos theory, and F.E.A.R the other day, haven’t played much Splinter Cell (PS2 btw) but it seems pretty nice.
F.E.A.R got the most of my gaming attention this weekend, played the first 3 missions, and a couple of hours of multiplayer which was great (at least I did not have to worry about Alma sneaking up on me)

My tooth is in need of root canal treatment
I’m home from work today, because every time I sit down (or god forbid, LAY down) my tooth starts hurting like hell.
All I can do basically is to just stand in my living room and watch TV or play some Playstation II, or maybe I should use the newly cleaned kitchen table to play some D&D miniatures against Nemi (the ferret).. or maybe I should rig up something so that I can stand and get some painting done on my Dark Elf army..
Fortunately I got an appointment with my dentist tomorrow, but until then it sucks to be me, as all my favorite activities involves sitting down :/
Update:
You hear bad stuff about getting a root canal, horrible stories that will turn your soul black.. Fortunately that’s all bullshit, getting a root canal did not hurt at all (I love drugs, drugs are your friend), all in all it was not much different from getting a regular cavity fixed.
Also I found a really great dentist, Thorleif Weie at Tannlege Weie, so if anyone in Trondheim needs a good dentist, I highly recommend him

I’m back in Trondheim and Christmas vacation is over.
Still… I’m not complaining in any way, since last night I bought a WOTDQ booster pack and found the best creature in the whole set
mmmm.. epic

Here are the highlights of the Christmasloot:
Ouh a fancy Hercule Poirot box, already watched about half of it.
What would Wally do indeed
It would not be Christmas without a brand new startrek box.. Voyager, season 5.
“Holy Crap Louis”, the first 5 seasons of Family Guy, my favorite cartoon (better than Simpsons, Futurama and Southpark put together and dipped in chocolate)
I also got a GPS thingy, so I wont get lost.. At least it met with instant ferret approval.
Speaking of ferrets, Nemi gave me a D&D miniature game box
And Stacy donated some money to FerretsFirst in my name
I also got socks, a statue of a seagull and other unmentionables, but they are best left undepicted…
