    1000 Signs you're in GM HELL

    63. Instead of writing tomorrows session, you procrastinate by posting to this thread... (and then double post.) :confused:

    1000 Signs you're in GM HELL

    59. Your Major NPC villains are more charismatic, more intelligent, and more ready with flashy repartee than you are. 60. Or at least you set them up that way, but all you can come up with the players bait you is That's what you are, but what am I?" 61. Your NPC, astonished at his lame retort...

    Insta-Kill Spell Alternatives?

    Or better, negative d10 (with 10 being zero). The GM makes the roll secretly, and you'd need to make a pretty good heal check to see how long someone had left if you were in the middle of combat etc. I reckon it has to be hidden, nothing more annoying than lying there dying, and no one cares...

    1000 Signs you're in GM HELL

    1000 Signs you're in GM HELL: :p 1. Your Rules Lawyers are actually Lawyers. 2. The only monster miniature you can use for the session is is an ixitxachitl... and you have a stutter. 3. Your NPC's engage in an earnest and in depth scholarly discussion of the problems facing the PC's...with...

    Ettins Are The DM's Friend!

    Are you crazy? Nothing worse for a GM than having to carry on a conversation between two PC's. Now you want them to be the same one!

    Beginnings of my own Pantheon

    And easier still when you call the same God different names. Worshippers can get so nitpicky sometimes (and I mean nitpicky with a blunt crushing weapon). :confused:

    Help! I suck at descriptions!

    Another idea Make interesting and colourful locations a part of your adventure design. It gets hard to come up with an interesting description for yet another dank sewer, and just as hard to make the 108th dungeon sound different (especially on the fly) so when you are designing your adventures...

    Help! I suck at descriptions!

    A few ideas which might help: 1) Train yourself to think cinematically - Ask yourself "How would this situation look if it in were a movie? What things would a great director focus on to create the mood?" Focus on the effect you want the area to have, and the details will come. Is this scene...

    Exo-skeleton - It's here

    Wow, Waldo's, video phones... all we need now are flying cars that go "brrrrrrr" and I will finally believe it's the 21st century!

    Dice Survivor ]|[

    Wish I'd thought of that... I want d6 to go. So boring. Half the fun of starting to play D&D was all the nifty new dice.

    True Strike as a Swift Action?

    Wiz war, too. :D

    Final Feat Survivor - and the winner is....

    Thanks Wulf :)

    Final Feat Survivor - and the winner is....

    Maybe, but that's a different exercise altogether. People choose all sorts of different feats for different reasons, some character based, some on how useful they are etc. Couldn't have said it better myself :)

    7000 Prestige classes oh my...

    Believe me, Feat Survivor had enough!

    7000 Prestige classes oh my...

    Oh oh 7000, huh? I hope no one runs Prestige Class survivor? :confused:

    I figured out a way to make an underwater game work!

    And to be fair, I was just being a smartass. ;)

    I figured out a way to make an underwater game work!

    Now all you need to do is figure out how to make a Warforged game work :)

    Final Feat Survivor - and the winner is....

    IMPROVED INITIATIVE!!! Congratulations Improved Initiative, oh least unpopular of all the feats. You may stay on the island (though many of us, no doubt, are happy to leave you there. :p ) Thanks everyone for participating. I hope you enjoyed the exercise, even if your favourite feat along the...

    Ultimate Feat Survivor ROUND IS OVER

    Skill Survivor? Yikes! If I had my time again, I would probably have done Character class survivor. Less options, so it wouldn't have taken so long, and probably would have elicited a lot more passion than FEAT Survivor. But you live and learn. I certainly won't be running any survivor rounds...

    Ultimate Feat Survivor ROUND IS OVER

    Well, it looks like you have Race Survivor on the way! (I would have gone with Class Survivor myself!) Good luck - you can deal with the incipient Survivor thread backlash!! P.S You could have waited a day, you know! :p
