[QUOTE="hawkeyefan, post: 9513823, member: 6785785"] I don't know. Have you seen anyone do that in this thread? Or elsewhere? I allow my players some level of narrative authority in pretty much every game I GM for them... the amount and methods will vary from game to game, of course, but it's something I think is important. Have you ever seen me complain about my players? Maybe. I tend to think if something is a cool idea, I won't mind it sticking around longer. Well it was an example offered by [USER=6801845]@Oofta[/USER], but I made some suggestions about how the DM could have handled it rather than just shutting it down. Yes, absolutely. I think some of the criticisms of that style that are about willingness are instead being attributed to ability. Sure.
