I played DnD 3.5 in high school for 3 years, though as time went one, we started modifying the system so much it barely resembled 3.5 anymore. We adopted the third-party Immortals Handbook for insanely high-epic gameplay with gods and cosmic entities as PCs. I eventually basically rewrote the entire players' handbook for my campaign setting, with all new classes, a new spell system with new spells, a hundred new feats, and a design approach incorporating 3.5's entire catalogue, especially the Book of Nine Swords rules.

And... my group broke up before I could ever run a game with it. :|

Oh, and I play in Quiet's forum game. It's really slow, but it's also a lot more in-depth doing it play-by-post, almost like collaborative writing.

I have some amusing and/or ridiculous anecdotes from our games I can relate, but I'll save them for another post. Most of them involve TPKs and battles that took far too long to adjudicate.

One short tale I can share though regards the beginning of a campaign I was running. I took the bard player aside as asked him to do something to get the party imprisoned, so, whilst at the tavern, he went up to a lizard man at the bar (of the very honorable nearby swamp kingdom of the lizard men, stalwart allies and trading partners of the city they were in) and... hissed in his face, for a good ten seconds. Suffice it say, the insult was not taken well.
Cold silence has a tendency
to atrophy any sense of compassion
between supposed lovers.
Between supposed brothers.
