Gaming Tips

Tips for Players
An enjoyable game is as much the responsibility of the players as it is of the GM. The purpose of roleplaying is to create an entertaining story. Participation is essential.

Tips for GameMasters
Limit Cake Walks - Without a sense of challenge, the players won't feel that they have accomplished something amazing when they succeed. The occasional easy mission can make the PCs feel powerful and show them how far they've progressed. If every mission is easy, there's no thrill of victory.

From the RPG Glossary...
Fanfic - fiction created by an amateur writer, based on characters or situations in a favorite novel, film, comic book, anime or game.

Gaming Humor

When I Am the Evil Overlord...
If I am fighting with the hero atop a moving platform, have disarmed him, and am about to finish him off and he glances behind me and drops flat, I too will drop flat instead of quizzically turning around to find out what he saw.

You Might Be A Gamer If...
You collect building plans to use as site maps for games.

Gamer To Avoid
The Lackey - He never comes up with ideas or puzzle solutions. He only participates by helping with someone else's plan.

Things I Learned While Gaming
