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...
Mother of All Cliches - in most storylines, the PCs are trying to save the kingdom or the world.

Gaming Humor

When I Am the Evil Overlord...
I will not gloat over my enemies' predicament before killing them.

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
Troll bubblegum is a bad idea.
