[QUOTE="billd91, post: 4706254, member: 3400"] I think the difference here is that with something well defined and statted up the DM may be highly invested in it and push it on the players with them agreeing to take the bait on the hooks. But I think it could still be a situation if the DM isn't particularly invested in getting the players to do it in an effort to run a particular plot through the campaign. If it's just another thing goin' on in the campaign world, it's a situation no matter how well defined it is. I'm generally more inclined to think of an adventure as the adventure the PCs have actually done or are doing right now. If they get involved in a campaign situation, they have an adventure. If they don't, then it's not an adventure. Again, I don't think it really matters how well defined or statted up it is. When it comes to running a campaign, I prefer a mix of player-initiated adventures and DM-initiated adventures. So I prepare, outline, or at least think about and jot down a number of situations, some of which I put in front of the players as adventures, some of which I do not but that they may seek out so that they become adventures.
