Fear of Girls, a D&D Documentary

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the i-wanna-see-how-drunk-i'm-getting dept.

FhnuZoag writes "Google Video is hosting the short film 'Fear of Girls', written and directed by Ryan Wood. The film is a hilarious 'documentary' dealing with a pair of self-declared elite table-top roleplayers. The film has already appeared at a variety of fringe events, but here's a chance to see it for free and online from a server that probably can survive a slashdotting." Allright, so it's not that funny, but since I'm off to play D&D this afternoon, it tickled me.

    When calling the link directly, it tells me "Currently, the playback feature of Google Video isn't available in your country.", but the coralized link works fine :-)

  3. For Non-US users : workaround by GrAfFiT · · Score: 5, Informative

    Someone suggested to use the coral cache : Link here. As the coral cache is multi-homed, you can be dns-round-robin-ed to a non-US mirror and thus be showed the Non-US notice. Just flush your DNS cache with : "ipconfig /flushdns"; for linux, restart your dns daemon. Try again a few times and it should work.

    The DM is a frequent poster (and moderator) at a popular RPG board which shall not be named for fear of Slashdotting. He runs games at cons. The other guy was in fact an actor, not the other way around. He doesn't know anything about gaming, but his acting abilities helped him there.
