Gaming Tips

Tips for Players
If there is a particular subplot would you like to pursue, or a topic you wish to avoid, let the GM know. Give him constructive feedback about what you liked, or didn't like, in the adventure.

Tips for GameMasters
No Favoritism - Reward players equally for equal effort and participation. Don't favor a particular race, class, concept, or party role.

From the RPG Glossary...
Octopoidal Horror Rule - Creatures from "beyond reality" always have tentacles.

Gaming Humor

When I Am the Evil Overlord...
I will not include a self-destruct mechanism unless absolutely necessary. If it is necessary, it will not be a large red button labeled "Danger: Do Not Push". The big red button marked "Do Not Push" will instead trigger a spray of bullets on anyone stupid enough to disregard it. Similarly, the ON/OFF switch will not clearly be labeled as such.

You Might Be A Gamer If...
You have been known to drive to far away places where you paid enormous amounts of money for the privilege of sleeping on floors, eating crap, buying little pewter statues of Gandalf, and meeting dozens of psychopathic members of the alternate (or similar) sex who will follow you around for months, merely for the pleasure of playing with gamers you don't know in small enclosed spaces permeated with the smell of sweat... and then signed up en masse with all of your friends to play in games with gamemasters who you've known since high school.

Gamer To Avoid
The Rules Lawyer - He knows all the rules and uses them to his advantage. He can't stand it when the GM fudges a rule or dice roll to help the story along.

Things I Learned While Gaming
When one person forgets to buy rations, eating the half-elf is not our first option.
