Gaming Tips
Tips for Players
An enjoyable game is as much the responsibility of the players as it is of the GM. The purpose of roleplaying is to create an entertaining story. Participation is essential.
Tips for GameMasters
Limit Cake Walks - Without a sense of challenge, the players won't feel that they have accomplished something amazing when they succeed. The occasional easy mission can make the PCs feel powerful and show them how far they've progressed. If every mission is easy, there's no thrill of victory.
From the RPG Glossary...
Failing a random encounter - To run into a person whom you dislike or try to avoid.
Gaming Humor
When I Am the Evil Overlord...
If my weakest troops fail to eliminate a hero, I will send out my best troops instead of wasting time with progressively stronger ones as he gets closer and closer to my fortress.
You Might Be A Gamer If...
You collect building plans to use as site maps for games.
Gamer To Avoid
The Lackey - He never comes up with ideas or puzzle solutions. He only participates by helping with someone else's plan.
Things I Learned While Gaming
My last wish cannot be "I wish we were playing another game".
