Right there with ya. Though I often yearn for a bit of something different, I'm spoiled too. Perhaps even lazy. It's not usually the extra detail of a combat system or something like a list of skills, though. What it usually is, is the prospect of how monsters and/or NPCs are handled. As much as I am beginning to dig OpenQuest (never having any real BRP experience), I don't relish the prospect of monsters fully statted and with a list of skills and more. In these cases, I always think to myself: "I just wish I could use a single number. *sigh*" Hey, I got a hard copy from Lulu - it was crazy-cheap. I don't think you'll find a more straight forward BRP game. Loaded with typos though. Shame, they shoulda got Liz to do it for them! My Tunnel Quest game is pretty simple... sites.google.com/site/hogtunnels/tunnel-quest

Sorry to continue the threadjack, everyone, after this I'm done. Promise. Hogscape, you should send what you've noted to the guys at D101 games. They seem to have repeatedly updated the pdf and the upload at Lulu for errata. (with that in mind, how long ago did you get yours? Was it after a lot of the correction updates?) Also, I'd somehow never noticed TunnelQuest before. That looks really fun!

SPOILED.
I'm sitting there reading freakin' B/X D&D and thinking to myself how over-ruled it is.
It's gotten to the point where I'm (hold your breath) actually considering converting Jorune over to T&T.
T&T Skyrealms of Jorune. I mean, how batcrap crazy is THAT?
*gasp* *gasp* Pardon me while I go peruse my copy of RIFTS. Maybe that'll cure it. *gasp*

I'm sitting there reading freakin' B/X D&D and thinking to myself how over-ruled it is. . Aint THAT the truth; crazy, overcomplicated game........ Before you know it, they'll be coming up with some mathematical formula to figure out the "to hit" numbers needed; maybe make it rhyme with "taco", or something............ It's gotten to the point where I'm (hold your breath) actually considering converting Jorune over to T&T. T&T Skyrealms of Jorune. I mean, how batcrap crazy is THAT? YEAH!!! Skyrealms of Jorune- Mutant illegitimate son of Metamorphosis Alpha........ If I had any money, I'd pay you to do this!

My OpenQuest is fairly recent (print 2?) but Newt is either in the middle of or just completed another errata run.
