Gaming Tips

Tips for Players
Remember that you, the player, know things that your character does not. Keep IC (in character) and OOC (out of character) information separate. Be careful not to let your character act on OOC information.

Tips for GameMasters
Allow Change - Let players change merits and flaws during a campaign, as their characters develop. Players should be able to work towards resolving a flaw, or gain a new one if something traumatic happens.

From the RPG Glossary...
Cheese cloth ribcage - The physical property of a vampire's chest that allows it to be punctured by any half-hearted stab with a sharp wooden object.

Gaming Humor

When I Am the Evil Overlord...
I will spare someone who saved my life sometime in the past. This is only reasonable as it encourages others to do so. However, the offer is good one time only. If they want me to spare them again, they'd better save my life again.

You Might Be A Gamer If...
You saw "Kindred: The Embraced" and kept yelling that they got it all wrong.

Gamer To Avoid
The In-Fighter - He frequently instigates conflict with other player's characters.

Things I Learned While Gaming
If I get that Yugo up to 120mph again, that's going to create some paradox.
