[QUOTE="Arravis, post: 277215, member: 327"] I'm a DM and as a DM I see it my job to entertain everyone in my group, it's not to push my ideas of fun on the group. I try to modify my DM'ng style to the players desires and needs. One of the players runs an Inn/Tavern, she gets quite detailed about it and enjoys the mechanics of running the business. She has detailed inventory lists, she's made a menu for each season, we've detailed all the npc's that work there and she even has an accounting notebook to keep track of expenses, etc. I had been DMin'g it that she made Xgp a month modified by the season. The X number was just pulled out of my butt really, it wasn't based on anything at all. She does alot of things to try to increase sales, save money, etc... Since she puts alot of effort into running her inn, I'd like to put an equal amount of effort in DM'ing it. Unfortunately I know next to nothing on this and that's why I came here. So no, I'm not some a-hole DM that keeps tracks of every single tiny detail in order to screw over my players and spend more time doing that and less time actually RPing and creating a good story. I think from my previous posts and things I've uploaded here, many of you would know just the opposite. Anyway, I just like to make sure everyone in my group has fun, even if what they think is fun isn't exactly what I think should be fun. P.S.: I'm a he btw :P [/QUOTE]
