Gaming Tips

Tips for Players
Ask your GM before buying any unusual traits or skills. Your choices may have an impact on the story. No character is officially in the game until the GM approves it.

Tips for GameMasters
Tailor the Game - Run a genre and style of game that the majority of your players will enjoy. If all of your players love beer and pretzel games, don't run stories with deep moral or philosophical meaning. If they live for hack-n-slash, don't waste your time coming up with clever traps, intricate puzzles, or NPC encounters with social implications.

From the RPG Glossary...
Six Demon Bag - A magic item which the party must possess to defeat the boss, or the largest foe in the adventure; originates from "Big Trouble in Little China".

Gaming Humor

When I Am the Evil Overlord...
No matter how well it would perform, I will never construct any sort of machinery which is completely indestructible except for one small and virtually inaccessible vulnerable spot.

You Might Be A Gamer If...
You took geology, sociology, psychology, kendo, archery and horseback riding in college, so you could build a realistic game world.

Gamer To Avoid
The Superstar - He wants all of the adventures and plots to center around his character. He can't share the spotlight.

Things I Learned While Gaming
I am not allowed to convince the entire party to play R2 units.
