[QUOTE="JoeGKushner, post: 2188659, member: 1129"] Depending on the mood I was in when this happened, there could have been several things happening. 1. Joe in Neutral Mode: "Dude, don't worry about it. If you can't help yourself but worry about it, don't let the door hit you on the way out." 2. Joe in Good Mode. "Man, it's weird that you got that math different than I did but since I'm the GM, you can accept it and let me run my game or ... yes, don't let the door hit you on the way out." 3. Joe in Bad Mode. "Dude, it's weird but your character died of a heart attack and ... yes, don't let the door hit you on the way out." I don't mind a quick rules disruption but as the GM, once a call is made, it's made. The time for confrontation/issues/bickering, is after the game, not during it. Anyone disagrees with me in my games.... don't let the door hit you on the way out. Harsh? Maybe but I'm too old to entertain people who want to challenge me when I'm running a friggin game. [/QUOTE]
