* A three part ''Webcomic/FullFrontalNerdity'' story, starting [[http://ffn.nodwick.com/?p=494 here]], has the group play a d20 game set in the ''Hitchhiker's'' universe. Nelson takes advantage of Adams's ItRunsOnNonsensoleum to create a highly unfeasable star drive, the Donut D-Hop Drive, which creates wormholes from donuts, which Frank allows since it's very much in the spirit of the Infinite Improbability Drive and the Bistromathic Drive.
