Gaming Tips
Tips for Players
Read about the genre and setting in which the campaign takes place. Find out what sort of races, classes, and concepts fit into the genre. Determine how gritty the setting is. Ask how mundane or extraordinary your character's background should be.
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...
One Ring - Describes any very powerful magic item or artifact, regardless of what the item actually is; originates from "Lord of the Rings".
Gaming Humor
When I Am the Evil Overlord...
I will not interrogate my enemies in the inner sanctum -- a small hotel well outside my borders will work just as well.
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 Specialist - He's the world's best at one thing, but is completely useless in all other situations. He completely dominates one scene, then sleeps through the next thirty.
Things I Learned While Gaming
When the other guy picks a sword for his choice of weapon, that does not leave me with pistols.
