    Funniest. LG. Module. Misprint. Ever.

    In VERIntro 6-01 "Paper Chase" the party is hired by a gnomish scholar to track collect documents he needs to put together info for a patron on Verbobonc's noble families.

    In the background it says - "He has made arrangements with most of the Nobles to gain access to their private libraries and "gynecological records."

    Ahahahahaha!!! Laughing

    Hey Mort, I'm not laughing at you, I'm laughing with you. Wink

    I can't talk, DMing my game last Thursday I was reading a description I'd written and the phrase "slight breeze" came out as "bright sleeze." Nothing like the whole party laughing to set a suspenseful tone.

    Right off I can't think of any big ones, (unlike our University newspaper that put had a page 1 headline in 4 inch font that read "Regants Pontpone Building President's Mouse" (the issue was that they were putting a hold on the construction of a new home for the University president). I do know I have to read through any scenario before hand and remove cliche phrases or risk a severe heckling and general side-tracking of my players as they criticize the writer’s style:

    "The door was ajar..."

    What? It polymorphed from a Jar into a Door? What was in the jar before it changed? I sense motive the Door... does if find it's existance as a door more satisfying than that as a jar?
