Gameplay Ethics, quick response

[pad300]

Ok, you're a player in a game situation.

Your party is executing a stealth based plan, and it looks like it's going to work just fine. Mid-execution (by other PC's), you suddenly realize that as a party you didn't think that some of the (to be) sneaked up on have the scent ability. This may (would) screw the plan royally & likely get other pc's killed. "Fortunately" for the PC's in question, the GM appears to have forgotten about scent too...

Do you PM the GM and remind him (thus selling out your fellow players) or do you keep your mouth shut and the GM run his game (thus selling out game integrity)?

Advice appreciated & yes, this is real.

It's not such an either/or situation as you've laid out. There are more options.

For one, how about PMing your fellow players and coming up with a way to incorporate a solution to the 'scent problem'?

Or, how about bringing it up in character?

Or, how about calling a 5-minute time out during the game and talking to everyone about how to handle the question?
