I'm not a fan of DM Saab stories.
Nyuk! Nyuk!
looks to see if there's a piece of troll left behind
sees something wriggling in the corner. either a worm or a troll finger digit. lights match and holds it next to the vermin. squashes it with his shoe.
<--- still wants Lynora's Tiamat. He has not forgotten.
Found this in an article I read today.....
Why are there so many blond jokes?

Do you do encores? ;)
encores every other thursday post
"I'm not a big fan of DM Fiat" = "I've played with some real a#%**~#s"One of the best, most fun games I ever played was entirely based on DM fiat because the DM had written the whole system himself.
Why couldn't you guys get a copy of those rules?

He got transfered and I had no computer to use the disk he offered me. That was back when they used five inch floppies.

And those were a step up from the cassettes used on Commodores. Whoo boy.

An orgy of mass destruction. or muay thai. take your pick.

You're just saying that because you were the big bad DM. XP

The rules will save us all!

I wish. I would have published the system and made some money off of it.

What I wrote.
So you guys are fine with a DM just simply killing off one (or more) of your characters in the group? just because they wanted to?
I am fine with it. In fact I once played in a campaign where the DM started out by saying, "Everyone dies, and then you wake up on the shores of an unfamiliar river." Totally awesome campaign by the way.
<sings off-key> the rules, the rules, set the rules on fire. we don't need no stinkin' rules let the Muddafrakker burn. burn muddafrakker burn. </sings off-key>
What's going with it? I can almost smell it from here.
It was Al Gore's secret weapon to combat global warming.

Maybe an alternative route should be recommended; civility isn't getting you anywhere. I can almost read testiness (sic) that's coming through your posts in that thread. Something must be invoked. :P
You guys had an orgy and didn't invite us?! What the hell.... ;)An orgy of mass destruction. or muay thai. take your pick.what have I missed
Well, stop playin' with the gorram bugs! :P
Nada much, CH. You taking a quick dip while the boss is looking the other way?

Invoke what? Pray tell!
Yeah, if emotion has entered my logic, it is in the last two posts. Esp. the last one.

I don't know just yet. Someone may have to unleash ... the kraken. Only then will they realize that the PCs are not on equal terms as the DM regardless of whatever utopian Star Trek society they think they dwell in.
But alas, if I only knew who can wield such power...

Nah, that would be too easy to resort to. Something must be summoned on such great trollish levels that it would result in the unholy offspring of AMiB and Frank Trollman. Something that would even unsettle the Spawn of Rovagug & mighty Cthulhu himself.
Consult the orcales, I must.

What happened to my ass? I see. I left it on the floor while I was rolling around laughing. Most unfortunate for me.
Besides, if Star Trek was really utopian ... it would be ... booooring. There would be no one for Kirk to karate chop, for instance. No Romulans, no Klingons, No Borg.... no 7 of 9!
They can take their DM fiat and drive it off the Chappaquiddick.

So far, I'm thinking it was not a good idea to get out bed today...
Mairk - rather than having your blood pressure go past the boiling point, I see that you gracefully bowed out of the conversation. It is the primary reason why I try to elude getting involve in these debates as it isn't going to change much. The internet brings out the 'I must be right at all costs even if I have to change the flow of the conversation to something inane and not on topic just to throw off the other individual and peppering liberal doses of linguistical semantics' in the average netizen.
Sometimes the passion for reason overpowers me, but alas, in an unreasonable world, I must master it.
I hope the exit was gracious. I still felt like I needed to signal people that their crap was unwelcome.

No, no, my leafy friend. Give in to your passions. It makes you all the more delicious.
Ah. Spicy. And still satisfying.
Invoke the dire half-fiendish mairkurion eidolon!
So many posts. Back in a little bit, as I read and maybe respond to all the posts.
Oh, yeah. Hello, future me.
Afternoon folks. I see your patience ran out today Mairkurion! Happens to the best of us.
The doctor says the kids have an intestinal bug and it just has to run it's course. Of course now me, Thomas, and Meghan have caught it to. Being sick sucks.
Sorry about that, David. I hope it doesn't hit the rest of you hard.

I love being at this school. I can't wait to teach. :)
Soon, right? :)
