100 ways to know that you're a roleplayer!

[Dannyalcatraz]

When you give in to some sort of temptation (to purchase, to look, etc) and comment on how you "Failed your save" (or "failed your save vs. purchase" etc...

Whenever a certain group I hang out with catches one of the members just openly ogling an extraordinarily attractive gi...chi...er...woman, we often say that he "failed his save vs hot." (Although, if it involves peeking over an obstacle like the back of a diner's booth, we call it "prairie dogging.")

Back to the list...

...when you see the license plate "500HP" on the back of a sports car and wonder just what kind of monster that driver was thinking about...

During my high school years, in one group I gamed with (the same one Drowbane was in), we used to say one would "fail a Dex check" when they fumbled something irl. This was during the 2nd edition days, when attribute checks were all the rage.

As well as Player's Option: Skills and Powers.

And Player's Option: Spells and Magic.

I still have a soft spot for Player's Option: Combat and Tactics.

Anyone else feel like reviving a thread and calling the act "thread necromancy" also falls under this category?

While watching "Thomas the Tank Engine and Friends" on TV with my 2-year-old nephew, my 23-year-old son and I got into a discussion as to what the various engines on the island of Sodor would be in D&D terms. Huge constructs, mostly, although Gordon could very well be Gargantuan, we decided.

When you can't watch a movie without thinking how your players would have torn up that plot, wouldn't have fallen for that trap, or would never let you get away with that in a session.

Or maybe that just means I DM too much.

Knowing when you are a DM is a whole 'nother thread

And a whole 'nother disease......
