Yes! I demand to know Judy Bauer!
Judy snuck in early in January, lending her editorial expertise and a keenly honed b!~$#!!@ detector to our ever expanding editorial venture (and, shall we say, "editorial debt"). And we couldn't be more delighted to have her aboard! Several hundred pages of editing a month quite obviously leaves little time for blogging, though, so I tend to leave the daily blog burden (blurgen?) off Chris and Judy and on those Jacobs, Reynolds, Sutter, and Schneider chumps.

Pics or I'll never beleive she's not your alter ego!
[aside]Hi Judy![/aside]
Hi, folks, thanks for the welcome! I've been here (albeit in lurk mode) since January. A bit of background:
1) Over the years, I've played AD&D (1st and 2nd eds), Call of Cthulhu, Rollmaster AND Spacemaster (*headdesk*), Ars Magica, a couple White Wolf games, Exalted, Star Trek, a couple things I'm forgetting, and a few homegrown systems. After a few years away from pen and paper RPGs, I'm coming back into the fold with Pathfinder.
2) It's true, I do worry about details a fair amount. A few (nonspoilerish) things I've worried about recently include distinguishing spinning vs. weaving equipment, the side of a mountain range that's in its rainshadow, and the flammability of containers (how I miss the potion misability tables!). Luckily I am better at letting go with movies, so people are still willing to go to movies with me.
3) Every time I see that leech illo I want to self-hug. Or maybe build myself a hut from those Himalayan salt slabs.
... and the flammability of containers (how I miss the potion misability tables!).
Those were the best EVER!
I still use the AD&D DMG on a regular basis. In fact, I still use the tables there to generate all my gems and jewelry :)
Any chance we'll see AD&D style random gem/jewelry tables ever?
Edit: P.S. Welcome to the insanity, Judy :)

Welcome, Judy! Please, don't stop worrying about details! :D

Anyway, welcome back to the world of pen and paper games, and to posting on the Paizo boards. Watch using the word 'smurf' in posts in case it does *that* to your avatar, be warned that you have a long way to go if you want to overhaul Heathansson's post count, and remember to make occasional obeisances to the awesome cookie power of the demon queen of victuals if you wish for cookies at PaizoCon...

Hey hey... spacemaster is cool. Ok i finally gave up on rolemaster I tried for years but just loath the magic system.
BTW you need a avatar of some form, all the cool kids have one. Plus now i will know who to send curses to when I see editing errors. :)
Welcome Judy and thank you for your attention to detail. :)
...Every time I see that leech illo I want to self-hug. Or maybe build myself a hut from those Himalayan salt slabs.
I highly recommend an excellent documentary film from 1959 that covers the do's-and-don'ts of preparing for a leech assault.

Hi, folks, thanks for the welcome!
Greetings.
*the kobold king turns and walk away thinking about how he is to foil the humanoids' plans. Now that they have someone who can figure out what side of a mountain range the rain falls upon, who knows what else they are capable of. She may very well know what side of a fish is the most delicious. Or how much wood a woodchuck could infact chuck. Or **gasp** the lost arcane ritual that could ascend kobolds to being purple worm wrangling. kobold king must remember to be nice to this humanoid until he can steal secrets of purple worm wrangling/hog-tieing.*
