Gaming Tips

Tips for Players
Try to up with a brilliant idea or plan to help your companions succeed. Don't always rely on the "brains" of the party.

Tips for GameMasters
Don't Break Them - Remember that the characters are simulations of real people. Don't be sadistic and push them too far. Prolonged exposure to horror, pain, fear, torture, or misery will break anyone.

From the RPG Glossary...
Mushy - Descriptive of any game that involves very little math or chart-consulting, usually because the rules are simplistic or designed for diceless play.

Gaming Humor

When I Am the Evil Overlord...
When I've captured my adversary and he says, "Look, before you kill me, will you at least tell me what this is all about?" I'll say, "No." and shoot him. No, on second thought I'll shoot him then say "No".

You Might Be A Gamer If...
You've had a heated debate about how your mage could beat the paladin that could beat the alien in Predator 2.

Gamer To Avoid
The Rules Lawyer - He knows all the rules and uses them to his advantage. He can't stand it when the GM fudges a rule or dice roll to help the story along.

Things I Learned While Gaming
Victory laps after killing the dragon with my 1d2 bow is considered in poor taste.
