Ourph said:Bad advice. A good DM is a much more challenging and interesting adversary than any computer.
Morrus said:If it's actually an adversarial situation (player vs. DM), how can the DM not win? How can the player possibly imagine that the DM is not going to win? Surely he knows that if he "wins" it's because the DM let him.
A game with an adversarial DM will last approximately 3 minutes, no matter how powerful or clever the players or their characters. Obviously, every DM knows this if his/her game has lasted more than 3 minutes - the question is, how can a player not know this too? And what on earth is the point of acting in an adversarial manner if you do know this?

Hold no punches display no weakness. I f they do something stupid make them pay. I have had them coming back for more for better than 20 years so I got to be doing something right. Call me the permanent DM as no other member's campaign has lasted 6 months.
