Tips for GameMasters
Don't Try to Win - Roleplaying games aren't about winning and losing. An adventure is not a competition between the GM and the players. There's no fun in that - the GM controls the universe and can't lose. It's your job to entertain the players by presenting challenges for them to overcome, rewarding them when they succeed, and telling a good story along the way.
From the RPG Glossary...
Rodents of Unusual Size - An uncommonly dangerous creature that most people don't believe exists, usually living in a remote area.
