Re: GMs: PC Scrutiny & Acceptance I absolutely hate it when a PC has Secret ID and a Family member for a DNPC. For example, Aunt May would NOT fly for me with Spiderman. She is able to take care of herself and does not need PP's support. And no one knows that Spiderman = Peter Parker so can't truly target her.

Re: Longest Running Thread EVER I think that should be the motto for here.

Re: Longest Running Thread EVER No, no, no. "Keep Posting, I'm hitting F5"

Re: Longest Running Thread EVER You should reformat then.

Re: Longest Running Thread EVER I hate it when I know where pictures are from. Especially when it looks like the picture comes from a paid account and I don't have one...

Re: GMs: PC Scrutiny & Acceptance As a GM, I run because of the following reasons: I like to game No one else will run half the time I enjoy running games My players usually get great enjoyment from the story Being a GM is not a job because I don't get paid. That said, if I don't enjoy the game myself, the game isn't going to happen. So players need to respect my wishes for how I would like to run the game while at the same time I need to reflect their wishes. Munchkining does not make the GM's game fun. Number Fudging does not make the GM's game fun. Lying about dice rolls does not make the GM's game fun. I trust my players. I look at there sheet and give them benefit of the doubt. If there is something I don't like or don't think is appropriate I get them to either to remove it or justify why they have it. I also set the following rule: The players set the boundries and limits to the game. I avoid sexual content in my games. Unless it is clear the players don't mind. I had a D&D game where a player decided to find someone for a one night stand. I rolled a 1 and gave him someone with a STD which the Cleric quickly removed. I never would have brought up the subject of STD's in a campaign if not for a player bringing up the concept of one-night stands. My games default to PG-13. A gun shot kills a person. I don't say, "The gun goes off ripping through the man's chest leaving a gaping hole." Unless, they want that sort of detail.

Re: GMs: PC Scrutiny & Acceptance

Bob build a character. He gives the character Damage Resistance to make his total EDr 5. He gives his character 75% Damage Reduction (Resistance) to Energy Attacks. Game 4. Bob is hit with a Killing Fire Attack. GM announces that before defenses it is 20 points of damage. Bob declares after defenses he took nothing. GM looks at his sheet and points out he should have taken 3 points of Body. Bob was under the impression it was Damage Resistance first then other defenses not the other way and had he known, wouldn't have built his character this way. Does Bob get the option to rebuild now that he knows the difference?

Re: Longest Running Thread EVER Now the other problem is getting our views count up. Hmmm...

Re: Longest Running Thread EVER 1 month of this thread of course. Which... if I posted just here it would accomplish both.

Re: Longest Running Thread EVER The bigger questions is can I break 2000 posts before that time.

Re: Longest Running Thread EVER Who knows. We are 58 pages in at 20 / page though.

Re: Longest Running Thread EVER Giving a Pearl Necklace is fun.

Re: Longest Running Thread EVER 2195 miles NW of my location. A bit of a drive.

Re: Longest Running Thread EVER Grabbing my GPS to enter a waypoint now.

Re: Longest Running Thread EVER Hmmm... taking a big risk on this one here? What is everyone's favorite position?

Re: Longest Running Thread EVER ... ooo OOO ooo ... ... ....

Re: Longest Running Thread EVER . o ( Now what do I post? )

Re: Longest Running Thread EVER Now why on earth would we want to count down? 116

Re: Longest Running Thread EVER We have about 120 posts to go before we surpass the opposites game. Our WGAC is higher than them already or at least, I believe it should be at this point in time.
