[QUOTE="Chimera, post: 107414, member: 2002"] About a year ago, I had to tell one of my oldest friends that he was no longer welcome in my D&D games. He was cheating. I knew it, he knew it, everyone complained about it. He was also a load. He'd just come over, drink most of a 6-pack of beer and a bunch of scotch, sleep until his turn to attack, then simply declare that he hit and start rolling damage. Him: "I hit" (starts rolling 3 damage dice) Me : "what did you roll to hit?" Him: "Um..." (looks for his d20, finds it IN THE BAG and rolls it) "that's a hit" Me: "What did you roll?" Him: "a hit" Me: "oh really? and your other two attacks???" Him: (acts exasperated, then rolls twice) "Hit and Hit" Me: "You hit three times every round for seven rounds when you needed to roll a 16?" Him: "um....yes." (and starts rolling damage again) When I told him he wasn't welcome anymore, he became upset and began denying everything. He never cheated, he never slept, he never got drunk. He always paid attention, he was always involved. Yeah, yeah, sure "friend". As it was, our friendship was pretty much over by the time we got to that point, and that was the last straw for me. I did hear from two friends who said that he cornered them at parties for months afterwards, complaining bitterly about how I had kicked him out of my game. Oh gee darn. [/QUOTE]
