[QUOTE="Raven Crowking, post: 2570211, member: 18280"] Besides demonstrating that my rules are superior to your DM's rules (for your purposes anyway), your DM obviously suddenly house-ruled more than one rule. For example, the rule that says a natural 20 always hits, if it is possible to hit your target. For example, the rule that says criticals need to be confirmed. If I was playing, and this was a typical ruling, I would find another game. Actually, I would just set up and run an alternative, because I have DMing in my blood. If it was an atypical ruling, though, I would probably voice a short objection, suck it up, and keep playing. Then, outside of the game, I would try to explain why I thought it was a poor ruling to the DM. If the DM agreed with me, fine. If not, also fine -- his game, his rules -- but at least I would be forewarned. Then again, as a player, I don't typically worry too much about having curves thrown my way. What I worry about is DMs who won't let me face the consequences of my bad decisions (and I have been known to make some whoppers....too much curiosity!). RC [/QUOTE]
