Well, personally, I probably wouldn't wait very long before having my PC attack his PC. But I can think of 2 reasons to wait, since you asked... 1. You're in a very trappy dungeon and he's running the rogue. 2. Your d20 hasn't been rolling very well that evening. In any event, I wouldn't...

Awwwww, c'mon. People can change their behavior. I've seen gamers stop smoking at the table even though they wanted to smoke, stop hogging all the good magic items during treasure allocation, cut-down on their OOC conversations and other stuff, just because somebody mentioned to them that a...

Well...here's some wacky advice that JUST MIGHT WORK! Step 1: Assume that whatever insult this guy throws-out is always directed 'to' your PC 'from' his PC--never directed at 'you.' Step 2: Whenever you hear an insult aimed at your PC, proceed to Step 4. Step 3: Wait patiently, like a cobra...

Right. Heck, it almost sounds like the pet NPC was Frodo, and the PCs were Samwise! Tony M

Seconded. Attempt to kill the Mary Sue. BUT...to do it properly...you must scheme with the other players and not give the DM any warning--or all is lost. If at all possible, wait until the Mary Sue is badly wounded, then attack via pre-arranged signal. :) Tony M

WHOA! I had a DM do something like that. He did did it because he was under-prepared for his game and wanted to drag everything out until the session was over. When I figured that out, my PC steamed ahead through his un-designed dungeon at full speed. The DM panicked and tried to distract...

Puffs out massive chest, bangs chest with fists like gorilla--thumpthumpthump. My PC made it through RTTOEE! All of it! Climbs up tallest tree in the jungle, throws coconut at sun. King of the world! King of the world! :) Tony M

Two more nifty tricks to try. Use WD40. Also... Rub over the Red stain with a different color, say BLACK. :) Tony M

I do the strip called ZOGONIA in Dragon Magazine, and the strip called MOUNT ZOGON in Dungeon Magazine. :) Tony M

Haha! Did she accept his IOU? I doubt she did...there's no way a DM would let a player get away with something like that. Haha, but it would've been awesome is she DID! :) Tony M

I could be wrong, and probably am, but I tend to believe that low player-attendance is a indicator that something is wrong with the adventure. Things that could cause a player to consider skipping a session every now and then: * The DM makes a lot of errors. * The game is too silly; there’s...

I bet they're taking time off for the holidays. And, to do that, they probably had to cram in a lot of work prior to the holidays, to get a little ahead--at the expense of the slush pile. Just my guess. :) I'd wait 2-3 weeks and contact them again and see what's up. Good luck! :) Tony M

Wait. So is the player of the Ranger the ONLY player who took you up on your offer to internet-roleplay? If that's the case, I'd be thrilled he participated, not lament his lack of adjectives or whatever. BTW, what he wrote seems okay to me. I mean, he asked you where the highest point in...

Because you create your own adventures, you may have finally reached the point where you know exactly what kind of stuff you are likely to invent, so you're becoming bored with your own style. If this sounds possible, buy an adventure that looks cool, customize it no more than a little, then DM...

D&D? "Evil"? Oh, puh-leeeze. I can count the people I've murdered on ONE hand... :) Tony M

That is a GREAT idea! Makes perfect sense to me. Thanks for posting. :) Tony M

I would've let the matter pass without a comment, myself. Especially since the monsters were Earth Elementals. Heck, it's virtually impossible to be EVIL while killing an Earth Elemental--just like it's virtually impossible to dig a tunnel in an evil manner, or stomp your foot on the ground in...

Thanks for the PDF! Tony M

I hope the PCs kill all the gnomes!! Then crash the ship into the anchoress' temple!! Ka-BLAM!! Haha, just kidding. Thanks for updating the thread, Ambrus. Skillful solution. Tony M

I had a GM I was argueing with get irritated at me and call me a gamist, to insult me. So I'm not particularly fond of them, either. Tony M
