Tommy and I, did, indeed, have our 1d4+1 drinks in honor of Gary Gygax last night. It was amusing and geeky. I rolled a 2 and he rolled a 3. We toasted such things as Saving Throws, Prestige Classes and The Fucked Up Math That Was THAC0. We then got into an amusing discussion about what sorts of rolls you'd have to make to be able to go to the bathroom when drunk. We finally settled on a Con Check to see if you were drunk or not, and then a Dex Check, for guys, to see if they actually hit the toilet or not. Tommy tried to argue that women would have to make a Dex Check too. After I pointed out that men frequently miss, in good lighting, while stone cold sober, and the only time a woman "misses" is if her husband has left the seat up and it's the middle of the night, OR, if she's "hovering" in a public bathroom, he relented a bit and said that women could have a much lower difficulty. (I still object, since no matter how drunk you are, if you're sober enough to stand up, you're typically sober enough to sit down). Then we got a little morose and nostalgic.
Later in the night, Tommy
But that's okay. I passed my Spot Check with plenty to spare.
