Gaming Tips

Tips for Players
If you need to take a break from the game or stop for a meal, give the GM a little warning so that he can find a good stopping point in the action.

Tips for GameMasters
Offer Bonuses - Award experience points based on participation. Reward players for extra effort. If you give bonuses for solving puzzles, coming up with good plans, interacting well with NPCs, and resolving plot points, no single character will be the perpetual "party leader".

From the RPG Glossary...
Mop - Member of the public, used by LARPers to refer to a non-player, usually to warn others that said non-player is about to walk through the playing area and that the LARPers should stop looking like wierdos.

Gaming Humor

When I Am the Evil Overlord...
The artifact which is the source of my power will not be kept on the Mountain of Despair beyond the River of Fire guarded by the Dragons of Eternity. It will be in my safe-deposit box. The same applies to the object which is my one weakness.

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

Gamer To Avoid
The Rollplayer - He doesn't describe his actions. He merely says, "I try to hit it" and rolls the dice.

Things I Learned While Gaming
Tourretes is not a flaw, it is a reason to kill the character at creation.
