jrhodes Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 (edited) I never did get into D&D "proper" (with other players), but i am big fan of gamebooks like Fighting Fantasy, Sagard The Barbarian, etc. and stuff like Tunnels and Trolls solo adventures. I have played a couple different D&D solo modules, and was even tempted to get something like Mythic's "Game master Emulator", but i got too many other things to steal my time.

I ran a 16 line BBS called The Transporter Room. I was the echomail coordinator for 8 or 9 years. Those long distance bills were horrendous. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+InsaneMultitasker Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 For nearly two years, PayPal's option to mail a check was not working. There were quite a few complaints and seemingly no action being taken. I had no interest in providing my tax identification number and bank account to PayPal, so last year I set up a reminder activity to try it in 2023. I logged into PayPal today and was informed I had $xxx.xx to accept and was asked how I wanted to receive the funds. I was offered the usual options to deposit into an account or send a check. I clicked the latter and to my surprise, I was asked to confirm my address. PayPal seems to have fixed the issue, hopefully for good, and with a bit of luck the check will arrive as 'promised'. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
