Gaming Tips

Tips for Players
Sometimes, villains tell the truth. They also mix fact with falsehood. Listen carefully. "Good guys" may lie or simply be mistaken. Don't believe every word they say.

Tips for GameMasters
Don't Favor NPCs - The PCs are more important than any NPCs you create. Don't try to be a player in your own game through an NPC. Don't put a favorite fictional character in the game if you can't stand to see the PCs outshine or defeat him.

From the RPG Glossary...
Trenchcoat brigade - Gamers, generally LARPers, who dress in all black with long trenchcoats, usually sporting a katana and attempting to look like an immortal from Highlander.

Gaming Humor

When I Am the Evil Overlord...
I will not turn into a snake. It never helps.

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 convince the Solo he has a cortex bomb when he really doesn't.
