Gaming Tips

Tips for Players
Participate in all aspects of the game. Everyone will have his turn in the spotlight. Don't fall asleep if you're not the main focus of the story.

Tips for GameMasters
Remember Traits - Pay attention to the merits and flaws of each character. These traits should have an impact on encounters. Don't let a player make a powerful character by taking several major flaws that never come up. Let a character shine when there's a chance to use his merit.

From the RPG Glossary...
Land of Evil Empires - The greater Seattle area, home to Microsoft and Wizards of the Coast.

Gaming Humor

When I Am the Evil Overlord...
My dungeon cells will not be furnished with objects that contain reflective surfaces or anything that can be unraveled.

You Might Be A Gamer If...
You compulsively mail or ship things to people (sometimes at great expense) because whatever it is reminds you of their character.

Gamer To Avoid
The Powergamer - His goal is to have the most powerful character in the game. He takes advantage of rules loopholes, and plays only the strongest races and classes. He is too competitive to enjoy the story or share the rewards.

Things I Learned While Gaming
There is no annoy setting on a phaser
