Or, in your case, how can you say you hate the Beatles if you've only listened to one album? Stop making judgements based on limited criteria. You want to say my journals show lazy writing, feel free. But don't characterise ALL of my writing by that, because I already explained to you multiple times that I am very limited and restricted in what I can say in a music journal. Read my fiction.

Now stop derailing the thread.

You want to talk more to me about my writing, PM me, otherwise drop it.

Ori, I have been DM many times. I have no objection to your being the DM/GM for this, if you want, but as I said I have experience and can step in if you want. Completely up to you; I have no problem at all. Just let me know.

We can take turns being the DM. Since I'm new to this, I would rather if someone else got the ball rolling.

Seeing as how TH and elph and both interested, I think a deathmatch is in order.

elph translation:

I’m not in; unless I’m DM.

TH translation:

If I’m not DM I might overdose on midol

I'd join but I don't know how to play. Do I have to read a 500 page booklet on the rules or can somebody just break it down in a post so I can jump right in?

FaSho · 02-04-2018, 11:05 AM

Interested.

Nah, I'm easy either way. Was just offering.

an ideal game doesn't feel arbitrary and the players should feel like there are hard rules that ground things in my experience so you don't take agency from the players

I don't think these guys are going to care so much about quests, and every tavern is going to have to have several buxom wenches and result in fist and/or swordfights, or else they'll complain.

Spoiler for pic too large thanks:

Yes indeed, that is what "I don't care" means. Well done.

It takes a little learning but it's not really a steep learning curve from what I remember (has been about thirty or more years since I played though).
