Vaxalon said:I never fudge the dice. Not only that, I roll outside the screen for any roll that would be evident (such as hits, damage, and saves) as soon as it resolves. This means that when a PC dies, the player doesn't feel as if I "let" the character die, or "made" him die.
hehe. reminds me of when one of my friends was running a Tournie and rolling in the open. one guy was being a total jerk the whole time (stealing from the party, etc).
at some point in time the jerk had all the loot and decided to run away from the party & the enemies. the jerk was like "Ha, only if they critted could those AoO kill me!"
Lo and Behold. my friend rolled a 20, then a 20 to confirm. one dead jerk =)
the jerk proceeded to spout "You're the worst dm ever! I cant believe it! You did that on purpose!!!"
my friend, "Yes, I did that on purpose. These dice roll whatever I want them to."
