Wow. Now that was nerdy. I mean, they were obviously using an old rule set for their D&D campaign. Buy some new books guys. All the cool kids have them.
Haha! I was certainly nerdy enough to appreciate this, including the Tanuki, although I only get 5 points for that, since I couldn't remember what it was called.
I was waiting for "Lightning bolt! Lightning bolt! Lightning bolt!"
Actually that doesn't seem so incredible after you've seen the traditional Finnish nativity play "Tiernapojat", where the birth of Jesus gets upstaged by more exciting things like a power struggle between king Herod and 'the king of the Moors'. Does this mean that Finns are nerds? :)
I have to throw agree with whomever said the BA ended in 1100 in the region (though I would usually hit more around 1200 BCE), it would have been much more accurate to say Hellenistic Period.
Wait a minute...What nerd worth his salt would be fishing in a bin for a copy of Highlander 2? A director's cut of Highlander yes, but any TRUE nerd would be chewing out the management of the store for even stocking the vile crappiness that is Highlander 2.
For a while, right after the introduction of 3.0 I think, they removed the alignment restrictions on paladins; the class was essentially turned into fightin' religious zealots instead of lawful good exclusives. Thats also when they removed the human/dwarf requirement for being a paladin, but the changes didn't go over too well so they didn't last too long. Since then, Wizards has gone back to the old idea of just adding death knight/dark knight prestige classes for evil folks to stack onto warriors and clerics.
If you are going to have a dwarf, don't you also need a beer volcano?
nnnnno.
Nope. No.
"Whatever, mathlete."
I'm afraid I was nerdy enough to even get the reference to the Tanuki, massive genitalia and all, during the credits...
Oh man. I am SO starting up my night elf Druid again over winter break. Stupid school, keeping me from my beloved Azeroth!!!
Who am I kidding, Outland is WAY cooler than Azeroth.
Only one way to describe that:
"Hurts so good..."

What was that, it was hilarious, I want to see more.

Is this Darwin's walking stick's magic ancestor I saw there?
Both the MMORPGs I play are down, so combination of sword-and-sorcery nerdiness with a nifty shot at the nativity is just WIN all over.
Were they off to get the new Red Dwarf box set near the end? Yay!
LM,
seriously! However, I see your NEDruid and raise you a BEWarlock ;)
"I'm a demon summoner, maybe I summoned them!"
...I'm still laughing.
And 3d20 damage from that shield? That is good.
Nuh-uh. The bronze age in the middle east ended by 1100 B.C.E.
What a bunch of dorks not to know that.
Also AC20 on a shield? Weak. That DM needs to be fired.
"Buy some new books guys. All the cool kids have them."
What an odd thing to say...

Nah, they just threw a load of World of Warcraft into the mix.
The d20 is not a damage die! Paladins can't be Lawful Evil! Also that was brilliant.
I am defiantly nerdy enough, I just arrived home from playing D&D. Saying that I have never gone to any LARP, bit too much for me.

It has a very "Venture Brothers" look to the animation...
That was distilled awesomeness.

That was awesome. Makes me miss LARPing all the more
Wow, all those strange urges to play AD&D with y fat basement friends came back. Seriously, I want to play. Anyone got a game set up?
Awesome! That's an actual anime? I gotta go find it now.
"Baby Jesus is a better cleric..."
Wait a minute...What nerd worth his salt would be fishing in a bin for a copy of Highlander 2? A director's cut of Highlander yes, but any TRUE nerd would be chewing out the management of the store for even stocking the vile crappiness that is Highlander 2.
Poor party management! you keep the demon-summoner in the back rank where he can summon uninterrupted!
And: no nerd worthy of the name would be shopping for Highlander 2. Now, the new HD-DVD of Star Trek ToS I could see.
Anyone know the name of that anime.
The credits looked real enough. Not like Kung Fu Jimmy Chow.
The only thing I thought was suss against it being real was the "I'm in Ur Manger..." bit at the end.
Classic gold. I wonder whose reputation I have to grind to get the reebok summoning spell.

How can Bill Donahue even talk about plots to corrupt children, when his church is basically a plot to fuck children? Mind-boggling.
Gargh, wrong thread!
Are you sure it's the wrong thread? Are you sure you're not a wizard summoning the demon Bill Donahue into this thread?
You want nerdy?
How about d20 stats for the Invisible Pink Unicorn?

The cartoon comes from here originally, http://www.fortaxreasons.com/ unfortunately its their only D&D stuff
Sadly, yes-- I am, in fact, nerdy enough to handle it. Plus, I made my sanity roll, so I only lost 1d4.
