Gaming Tips

Tips for Players
Contribute to the game session by hosting the game, bringing snacks, helping set up, supplying game materials, running adventures, or cleaning up afterward.

Tips for GameMasters
Check Game Balance - Make sure that the PCs are equally powerful when the game begins. Compare the PCs to the monsters, traps, and NPCs you plan to put in their path. Do they have the power, skills, and equipment they'll need for a chance to succeed?

From the RPG Glossary...
Hassan chop! - Phrase used when executing some kind of maneuver involving cutting, either in or out of the game.

Gaming Humor

When I Am the Evil Overlord...
If I ever talk to the hero on the phone, I will not taunt him. Instead I will say this his dogged perseverance has given me new insight on the futility of my evil ways and that if he leaves me alone for a few months of quiet contemplation I will likely return to the path of righteousness. (Heroes are incredibly gullible in this regard.)

You Might Be A Gamer If...
Your character gets more mail than you do.

Gamer To Avoid
The Munchkin - He is concerned only with his own immediate gratification. If he doesn't win every time, he complains.

Things I Learned While Gaming
The Dutch language does not exist in the Forgotten Realms.
