As I recall, there was a trivia game that covered all aspects of D&D history.

One of the questions had to do with a dwarf using a ring of invisiblity that only made half of his body invisible...because originally dwarves could not use magic rings. Or some such...

It was probably the same game as the one under discussion.

How about an OD&D trivia game? Questions could be written about the differences from later editions, such as:

Chaotic Demons with psionic powers in Eldritch Wizardy, as opposed to the exclusively Lawful psionics of 2nd Ed.
OCE parties with only Fighting Men, Magic Users, & Clerics, plus the gradual accumulation of classes.
Aborted classes or titles like the Referees Guide, Outdoor Geomorphs II & III, & the Witch PC class.
Obscure publications like Little Wars.
Use of Outdoor Survival.
The correct spelling of Domesday Book or appearences of 'Grayhawk.'
The suppression of Hobbits, Ents, & Balrogs.

Sounds like you may want to check out a new-ish OD&D discussion board @ http://odd74.proboards76.com/ (hey Foul, can we get this one added to Resources?) and Knights & Knaves @ http://www.knights-n-knaves.com/phpbb/index.php (in addition to Dragonsfoot, too).

In case you all don't read the Copyright infringement thread, Fair sized lot that contains Outdoor Geomorphs, although its probably worthwhile to check for completeness of them. (Sorry CB

):

** expired/removed eBay auction **

The reported Xeroxes not being an Ebay violation are interesting though

, but I guess it could be worse.

You know I was looking at again today and not that it really matters much, but is that even really Tiamat? I mean it doesn't say Tiamat anywhere on it and to be honest it sure looks more like a five headed Hydra to me than it does Tiamat.

I mean I would figure if it was Tiamat that all the heads would have been colored different colors, kind of like the PVC toy produced by the same company....

Gets on me tits. I love that!
It's not Tiamat. The heads are not only uncolored, they are all identical.

If you hit a Rowsdower, you get to keep it.

What is that? A big vat of brains for their pet overlord?

Not sure, but it has a Stonehenge-meets-Aliens kind of flair, doesn't it?
