No problem; I do suggest some light reading:

Thank you for the link. I have not seen that FAQ before.

Nor can I. Crixus is unique for a reason. Keglo, your games must have been very long up until now.

Yes they did take a long time. I am looking forward to playing again so I can see what it's like playing the correct way. I just have to talk the old lady in to playing again. She doesn't like to play nearly often enough to satisfy me.

Don't worry, your experience is not unique. For the first five months I played HS, I was playing by those rules as well. The only real difference (in game terms) between your version and the real version is that your heroes are incredibly more durable. I was actually really dissapointed with how easy it was to kill Agent Carr once I started playing the real way. Still, you can't imagine my excitement when Crixus came out- the designers thought my old way of playing was fun too! Or at least, that is what I told myself.

I can't believe you had been playing wrongly all that time. And I invited you to our AR tournament! What was I thinking?
Only joking, keglo! But don't forget to let us know how different it is when you play the correct way comparing with how you played before. I'd love to know.

Yeah, I'm really glad that I didn't go up and make a fool of myself. I'm going to read through that FAQ really well. I though that I had the rules basically down. I'll let you know how it goes.

If you want to discuss mistakes made, I'm all for it. I've got plenty of examples. Munchkin, fer instance. Thought the die was in the box for a reason. I thought you rolled the die to attack the monster you encounter and added that to your level + bonuses. I even taught my group to play that way.

**** i been plying wrong for 3 ******* years No wonder the games were to long

Keglo, my man, I just can't stop laughing. Man, how long? Not that I haven't made my massive share of silly mistakes in the past. Your games must last f o r e v e r . . .

All due respect my man, it wouldn't be so funny if I didn't think of you as one of the experienced people around here.
