I don't think that's gonna happen. Neither the OP or Azyrl have posted anything here for more than 48 hours. Also, the OP previously stated that he wasn't going to return to the game.

Eunomanic, it sounds like everything went well and you all had a blast. Now, after a virtuoso entry to Dread, you have to face the problem of getting one of your players to run it so you can play. Turnabout and all that.

I was tempted to not even read this thread based on the title, but when I gave in, I liked what I read. I don't know that I'd make this some dragons. I'd probably make these the only dragons in my setting. Also the only giants. Gotta look out for the one that values his life more than his...

1) You call them on it, preferably in private, and ask if it's intentional. If it's not, and they really believe that their character is acceptable, then you have to explain things to them much more thoroughly. If it's your fault they didn't understand, you apologize, extensively detail your...

This. The position of GM is one that none of my group of friends relishes. Part of our unspoken social contract is that we take turns biting the bullet and running a game, so that our friends can have fun. We take care to craft a game that we think everyone will enjoy, and work with them to...

From the original post: There's your evidence Arrowhawk. Edit: I made sure to quote this, so that I couldn't be accused of lacking objectivity. Mercutio01 beat me to the post, though.

Correction and apology. Umbran, I want to be clear that I made that accusation publicly first, not Janx. I don't want him in the focus of your ire for something that I did. I apologize to you for handling it poorly.

Why does everyone keep pretending that Azryl isn't Ringlerun? He just so happened to join Enworld on the day that his Roleplaying Lifemate is being told he's being bad. Both from Australia and both in the same age group? He posts nothing except defense for his newly discovered bff? I for...

That handout is great. Just the thing to start them off right. Have you thought about what to do if more than one person shows up only wanting to play the philosophy major? The amount of work you've put into it is inspiring. I'd like to steal, err, see all the other goodies that you've got...

Look into Mage Knight figures (I recommend Rebellion, the first set). You can buy cases of the things for $50 or less, getting a couple hundred figures. Then go online and do a little research with your son about what kind of hero figure he wants. Buy it off ebay for a round $5. The hero...

Eunomiac. 1. I'd suggest knocking out some of the "Fluff" questions, maybe taking each questionnaire from a dozen or so questions to eight or nine. Lose things like "Tell me about your favorite pet" in favor of making your four stages of rolling answers into three. The depth of character...

I'm glad to see you here on Enworld as well. I just want to reiterate here that this is an heroic undertaking, that I'm far too cowardly to try it, and to wish you all the luck in the world. I'll follow your post on both sites.

For some reason whenever a stranger approaches me about roleplaying, they always seem to want to tell me about the character that is so powerful that they automatically succeed at everything (and they've been playing that character or one of it's siblings since it keeps dying, for 10 years) and...

If your plot requires that they find the stash, just change "secret room" to "vault door", and they'll find it so you can continue your game.

Thread Necromancy! I'm going to be running a game of Dread this weekend, and thought of this thread. Just wanted to get it back into the loop, to see if anyone has anymore Tales of Dread to share.

I bought my Wife a chaos space marine army and all the rules for 40k and paints and things. That was painful. Probably about $250 to $300 when all was said and done. Made her happy, though, so it was worth it.

Probably this piece billd91 was talking about from npr. Prohibition: Speakeasies, Loopholes And Politics : NPR

I played in a D20 modern game a few months back, where a fellow PC committed suicide after two blue worm things had burrowed into his leg. He was about to go into negative hit points and decided that he wouldn't let such lowly critters do him in. He told the GM that he was going to shoot...

How about "We'll let your young live, but they're coming with us. As long as you refrain from harming sapient creatures, you may rest assured that they will be well taken care of by someone who is competent to do so, and has no compunctions about slitting their throats if word comes around that...
