[QUOTE="Meridian, post: 493768, member: 1603"] Do I think I'm a good GM? I'm good at originating plots, winging the plot when the characters do something unexpected, creating a dramatic mood, handling characterizations and abstracts, and portraying the various NPCs along the way. I allow characters time to role-play and focus on providing them with plotlines that encourage the player to think about the character's reactions to ongoing events. I very rarely plan strategically sound combats unless I'm sure that the NPC(s) responsible for them are actually capable of coming up with those ideas, given their background and surroundings. Rules lawyers can't stand me, because I usually don't have the mastery of the game system necessary to openly "marvel" at their clever use of the rules to save the party, though I do acknowledge their superior experience. I try to give everyone equal time, especially in the spolight. I don't think I'm a great GM, but for the right group, I'm pretty decent. :) [/QUOTE]
