Gaming Tips

Tips for Players
Learn the rules and setting. Keep a copy of commonly used reference information on hand.

Tips for GameMasters
Vet the Characters - No character is officially in the game until the GM approves it. Make sure the players created their characters properly. Every PC should have a useful role in the party. Look for character concepts that may clash with your main storyline or lead to inter-party conflict.

From the RPG Glossary...
Chaotic stupid - A term used to describe someone who regularly takes unintelligent actions in the game, especially villains who perform random acts of badness just because they're evil.

Gaming Humor

When I Am the Evil Overlord...
No matter how many shorts we have in the system, my guards will be instructed to treat every surveillance camera malfunction as a full-scale emergency.

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

Gamer To Avoid
The Hoarder - He wants all of the loot and can't share equally with the other players. If his character is alone when he finds the treasure chest, no one else will ever know he found it.

Things I Learned While Gaming
If at any point my dwarf takes on the mannerisms of Macho Man Randy Savage, he dies.
