Gaming Tips

Tips for Players
Portray difficult emotionswell. Act embarrassed, awe-struck, terrified, and so forth at the appropriate times.

Tips for GameMasters
Avoid Scripts - Don't try to run your favorite book, movie, or TV show episode as a linear adventure. The PCs are not the characters from the show. They won't make the same decisions. They'll find their own solutions to the situations they're presented with.

From the RPG Glossary...
Alien eyes - The act of rolling a total of 3 on 3d6; as opposed to snake eyes.
