lobulusk Cheers. One of the best stories i have have ever heard, i think that will be brought up at my next gaming group. the best we evrer had was a month long round of nut sack, you probably know how that went. it was either crit or 1 but either way wham, and then usually throw up... as for deranged players. a certain franchise gaming shop, where minature battles take place, this was second hand. short guy in cowboy hat, we will call him "the hat" annoying teen know it all. Teen mouths off constantly though out game, hat tells him to "chill" they get in each others faces.
i believe several gamers and two employeess had to pull him off the beaten and bloody teen. On another note i saw a fist in the face at a game table, member was army on leave, friend of the group. New player had some very commie pinko comments about new player and the army, ya poltics mixes well with games. a flipped table and fist to the face, several lost teeth later i was on the floor laughing at the whole thing, the other group had fled in terror, most gamers are not known for their courage under fire, and the army guy hopped a fence and ran off down the street, that was perhaps the funniest part of the whole situation.
OLD skool DM?
1.New characters are 1st level. No matter what level you die.
Hmm. Interesting arguments, however: 1.Mounted SUCKS.
Point 1. Mounted sucks.
Okay a rogue does not rely on backstab, but tell the people playing the rogue oh by the way, you can only use the back stab ability 1 out of 6 times, only in a dark room with four walls, of x dimension, otherwise you can never use it? or you can turn undead, but you can only turn undead outside during the day. Or a paladin can smite. But only in a wide open field, during the night. Sure these abilities are not the most important class features, and there are other powers, but it sucks when a big power can only used sort of, some of the time, if the party and dm want to make an effort to work it into the game.
in lines with my worst game ever. Worst PC? Guy always played a thief, always.
Always new what combo killed what monster, ALWAYS. if you killed him he played his brother, hell bent on revenge.
Worst Dm? DMPC (Dm player character) I can live with them, have used them, however that being said. His character could never die, solved everything, was the life of the party, new the best everything. It was a group of four of us. And the three players finally got sick of it and when he went down in combat, well someone might have stepped on his windpipe. Needless to say he was back to life in the next adventure, we found out he was divinly protected, lucky us.
I have had great DM's (in fact the one i have now is brilliant, no matter what little things come up, on the whole he is the best dm i have ever had.) I have Dm'd great Pc's, same goes my group, no matter how small, is pretty much the best group i have had. Makes an effort. After reading others horror stories i decided to share my own, would love to hear other peoples. So the worst game i was ever in, i was a PC. We got together at a local store, the owner runs some games. Well i thought this might be fun, you know he is a verteran player, there would be about six people and that sounded like a blast. Well...lets start.
Me:Hey i am ready to make my character.
Now again i am not an ass, but i was told that i would make my own, i am not the biggest fan of rogues, i actually prefer ANY fighting class, but fine i am not a jack ass i will play. PC1-PC4: same deal here are your pre made classes and races, no one picks the class. Fine.
DM: you finished your character?
No crap, i swear this is how the conversation went down. I bit my lip, but a game is a game. skip ahead. Roleplaying.
Dm gurl step out for 15 more mintutes
continue. Combat rolled around something like this PC1: swing and a miss.
oh and the usual we are to go from a-b, but gurl wants to wander to c, so we divert to her side quest agin and again and again. that was my worst experience. Oh and this is how all the games there run, over and over and over. How about the rest of you? |
