Gaming Tips

Tips for Players
Use the proper character sheet for the game. Double-check the math when you are done creating your character. Check the spelling and grammar in your background. Write legibly.

Tips for GameMasters
Detail Changes - When using a homebrew system or house rules, make sure to document them carefully. Explain the changes to your players before they create characters. Try to playtest before putting new rules into effect, and be prepared to listen to feedback.

From the RPG Glossary...
Twinking - A derogatory term for behavior that seeks to destroy the integrity of a game by disrupting the enjoyment of its players.

Gaming Humor

When I Am the Evil Overlord...
I will not grow a goatee. In the old days they made you look diabolic. Now they just make you look like a disaffected member of Generation X.

You Might Be A Gamer If...
You have more entertaining "there I was..." character stories than you have anecdotes about your family.

Gamer To Avoid
The Whiner - He can't stand it when things don't go his way. He feels picked on when his character suffers from a botched roll or takes damage.

Things I Learned While Gaming
I cannot gain more than three drama dice per session for making the GM pee.
