Monkey, Ninja, Pirate, Alien: The role playing game. (To be filed under WTF)

The monkeys look like they have smiley faces stuck over their mouths.

Kewl. Anybody up for an Email RPG session?

In general, Monkeys like Pirates, dislike Robots, have no strong feelings about Ninja, and hate Aliens.

Damn straight!

Please warn when the link is anything other than a webpage, in this case a .pdf.

Otherwise, grand link.

I like robots, especialy sexyrobots.

In other news, does anybody know how you get firefox to stop opening pdf's by itself, and let the alone program of adobe handle it?

Monkeys like aliens. And elves.

Pdf file bad. Hurls poo.

toohep: (For PC) In acrobat reader, file->preferences under "Internet" uncheck "Display PDF in browser". Sometimes works, sometimes not.
If not, maybe check windows' and/or firefox's file type prefs?

For Mac unchecking "Display PDF in Browser" is also an option I think. IIRC for a mac the hard thing is getting it to open the pdf and not always download a copy to the desktop or wherever.

Alnedra, if I weren't up to my eyeballs in PBeMs, I'd bite on that.

Chad U's work for Unknown Armies was top-notch. Damn shame that game never made enough money for them to keep doing it. Best RPG Evar.

The boardgame version is great fun. I'm confused as to how it can be roleplaying if it doesn't use d20s or isn't Something: the Something though. /joke

toohep: In Firefox, go to Tools > Options > Downloads > Plugins and disable the pdf plugin. Next time you follow a link to pdf, check the "Always open with..."-box to associate pdfs with Acrobat. That ought to do the trick.

Disabling most of Acrobat's plugins speeds it up a LOT. To the point where it just takes a few seconds in Firefox for me (using a fairly new computer).

Alternately, the new 7.0 version of Reader is reasonably fast too, and can co-exist with the full version of Acrobat 6.

Pirate monkey robot!
