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...
Demigod - Any kickass person, someone exceptionally impressive and powerful.

Gaming Humor

When I Am the Evil Overlord...
I will instruct my Legions of Terror to attack the hero en masse, instead of standing around waiting while members break off and attack one or two at a time.

You Might Be A Gamer If...
You've written character histories that are longer than most novels.

Gamer To Avoid
The Joker - His sense of humor comes up at inappropriate times, or isn't considered funny by others. He destroys the mood of a scene by cracking jokes or making off-color comments, either IC or OOC.

Things I Learned While Gaming
My bard does not get a bonus to perform if she's obviously not wearing anything under her tabard.
