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...
"Inconceivable!" - Exclamation used by players after encountering something that they could have seen coming, but didn't anticipate; quoting "The Princess Bride".

Gaming Humor

When I Am the Evil Overlord...
If an advisor says to me "My liege, he is but one man. What can one man possibly do?", I will reply "This." and kill the advisor.

You Might Be A Gamer If...
You can consume your body weight in junk food in one gaming session.

Gamer To Avoid
The Cheater - He spends more character points than he has earned, has bags of endless gear, never runs out of arrows, or fudges dice rolls.

Things I Learned While Gaming
I was not recruited by 12 dwarves and a wizard to rob a dragon.
