This may be an idiotic question, but are new Adventures considered to be House Rules?

No.

... And there's likely to be some cross over as it's not uncommon for threads to evolve into house rule discussions.

And maybe when that crossover begins to occur we can link to existing threads in House Rules rather than starting the argument all over again.

I'd hate for the sun to come up while we're still arguing.

Can 'tags' be used on this forum? May help Jon and the guys, as well as ourselves, if we could use them...

I really like the idea of a dedicated house rule sub-forum.

I do also think it worth noting that the game has been out for some time before we hit the 41 page thread on that Virtue. It can't be all that broken if we haven't noticed till now ;)

I do enjoy some of the creative ideas people have come up with for house rules. TOR is certainly a fun rule set to play around with.

I think that it is a great idea, and I am happy to see it implemented. My biggest gripe, so far, is that we need a more pithy descriptor for it. Maybe something along the lines of "The One Ring is a great rules system, but sometimes it's fun to colour outside the lines."

I'm sure that time will tell as to where threads end up. For example, I was surprised to see my character sheet thread in there, but not at all to see my magic thread.

See what all you people who are disgruntled with Deadly Archery have done? You pushed Jon to the limit. Don't you feel terrible now?

You just COULDN'T let Deadly Archery be not quite so deadly, could you?
