You'd also need to make it so the boss wouldn't spawn unless there were no
PC's in his entire section of the dungeon to further dislodge the campers.
I like the idea of making people wander all over the dungeon though to get
the widgets. Just implement John's idea so that whenever a special widget
mob died it got randomly assigned to spawn in place of some other mob the
next time it was due to spawn. People would be running all over and yelling
"Hey I see WaxOnius, has anyone seen WaxOffius?"

I think NWN is scheduled for 4th quarter release. Even if they finished
early they couldn't put it out before 3rd edition D&D which will debut at
GenCon, Sylly you lucky devil!

Yea thats what its called! (forgot the name).

Ok so make the widgets lore so you can't really farm them (guess you
could get one for everyone in your group). If you really want to be
cruel, make them no-camp... I am opposed to forcing certain classes on
parties so I'd make locked doors with extra prizes or put keys on mobs.
(who would then be needed if you dont have a rogue, but you could skip
them if you had one)

NeverWinterNights (II?) looks great, but its more than a year away... I
think its release will be the end of my EQ subscription...
