I have got my hands on a borrowed copy of the FRCG(I knew people who came in 3rd at the D&D classic at Gen Con) and I figured out what happened. Cyric got a copy of the Cyrinishad to the design staff of WotC and they all failed their saves. Now 4th edition is really just the Cyrinishad mass produced and if you fail your save you are madly fanatic about it...if you make it you recognized it for what it is. I think some are on the threshold and can be saved....:D

Anyway I am not going to give any spoilers as 1) people will do that anyway...2) I don't like it and I would rather not dis a product on a board put up by the people who make that product in this fashion.

-Makes sense. Very plausible, given that AGHotR continued the facade that all Forgotten Realms products come from Forgotten Realms individuals telling people from Earth about them.

"I'm not flaming the 4th Edition Realms - I'm just giving you all a bonus on your saving throws." :D

Cyric, I love you.

-He gutted the last person to feel emotions for him like that. I'd watch out.

Makes very much sense. Though, is it possible to witness the Cyrinishad and then to not be a fanatic but also not recognizing it for what it is?

-Sure. People who are fanatical in their beliefs don't recognize the absurdity of some of the stuff they believe in, so...

Also the Cyrinshad is always changing...it could be a shopping list one moment to a play weritten by shakespeare to a RPG system...watch out what you read people...

True. After I shoved my stepmother into the oven after reading Hansel and Gretel my life was over. Got ten years in Oz for that.

I figure that Deneir finally completed his Metatext - and completed Leira's Big Lie. We've certainly seen a book that is a great and terrible lie and work of subterfuge, with a complete dearth of creativity and imagination.

:D

If you don't need to flame it, I wish you'd stop it then.

I am not flaming anything. I have pointed some very big flaws in the setting that just doesn't maker sense. If critizism is flaming then I really don't know how people will improve.

This thread was meant to be humorist...(hence why it is called a joke thread) I should never probably had put in the second paragraph. What it meant was I am not going to go page by page here and point out all the flaws. I am going to post my opinion though on matters that inconsistent and just don't make sense.
