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...
"Several things happen at once" - Phrase used by the GM to indicate that the situation has become so complex and fast-paced that the party has probably lost control, usually during combat.

Gaming Humor

When I Am the Evil Overlord...

You Might Be A Gamer If...

Gamer To Avoid
The Combat-Monger - He couldn't care less about the story, and doesn't pay attention until the fighting begins.

Things I Learned While Gaming
