[QUOTE="Alzrius, post: 6090802, member: 8461"] [b][u]Damn It Feels Good to Be a Gamer[/u][/b] (sung to the tune of "Damn it Feels Good to be a Gangsta"; with apologies to the Geto Boys) Damn it feels good to be a gamer A real tabletop gamer runs his char’ right A real tabletop gamer never needs to check morale ‘cause real tabletop gamers don’t lose fights His PCs always got the high stats Showin’ his party that he rolls highs But real tabletop gamers don’t point-whore ‘cause real tabletop gamers don’t optimize And everything’s fun in the game of a gamer ‘cause tabletop gamers don’t complain Play levels one-to-twenty, low up through the epic ‘cause real tabletop gamers all campaign And all I gotta say to you Domino, video, card-playin’, free-formin’ lamers When the dice come out what the #$%& you gonna do? Damn it feels good to be a gamer Damn it feels good to be a gamer Drivin’ the plot, helpin’ out NPCs Though all my stats were rolled random Now I’m earning big XPs Damn it feels good to be a gamer Beatin’ monsters everywhere I go Ridin’ around town hittin’ pick-up games Whackin’ monsters with my [i]sword +4[/i] Now tabletop gamers come in all race and classes Some got killed while they played But this gamer here is a smart one Bought [i]contingency[/i] to get me [i]raised[/i] Now all I gotta say to you Domino, video, free-formin’, card-playin’ lamers When your tournament ends what the #$%& you gonna do? Damn it feels good to be a gamer Damn it feels good to be a gamer A real tabletop gamers get his wealth Real tabletop gamers get the biggest of the treasures Ask that tabletop gamer called Melf Now monsters look at tabletop gamers as a challenge And move into their combat roles But get surprise on a monster grab your weapons and your spells And end up pokin’ them full of holes ‘cause tabletop gamers be the game players And everything’s quiet in their fort A tabletop gamer sees a bad guy And his partners in the party scry-buff-teleport Real tabletop gamers don’t parlay much All you hear is the clack of a die cast And real tabletop gamers just roll to hit ‘cause real tabletop gamers make you die fast Now when you in the game world makin’ crits role-play it Fail a save against some GMPC shamer But players like myself kick back and retrain ‘cause damn it feels good to be a gamer And now, a word from the Game Master! Damn it feels good to be a gamer Got it all set up behind my screen Everything lookin’ good to the players ‘round the table But none of them know I’m feelin’ mean So every now and then I pick a player slap ‘im down By fudgin’ just a die roll or two And lettin’ a monster make its attack roll So it can run that PC through So players of the game keep respecting me And you’ll be the game world’s star But your actions better not upset me Or level-drainings are in store And for all those char-op threads which I have read I’ll issue this disclaimer They’re what a GM needs to run the PCs scared And damn it feels good to be a gamer [/QUOTE]
