[QUOTE="jasper, post: 7243259, member: 277"] Annoying player types. Some of these no longer tick me off. 1. The Bully. If you want a ride to the game next week, I get first dibs on magic. 2. Reskin of favorite fictional character, generally comic book. 3. I want Magic item of the week. Rip off of item from current movie. Talon rocket launcher sword. Light saber, blaster, phaser, etc. 4. Rules lawyer. Pulls out grammar book, Robert rules of order, to get its way. However becomes mute if mistake is in its favor. 5. But science says..... Tries to science the stuff of the campaign. Either forgetting magic will interfere with idea, game theme makes science take a back seat, or wants to build uber weapon using science, logic, math logic, and magic items. 6. Lone wolf who wants to take up 80% of game time on his adventure. 7. Squirrel. Can not focus on game look squirrel. 8. MY knowledge = pc knowledge. 9. Fore knowledge foe. Trust me Jasper. Just because I ran, dm, played it, wrote, etc, the adventure I won't act upon my knowledge. 10. I'm too sexy um too smart for my pc. PC has Int 8, Player has 3 STEM degrees. PC just gosh darn lucky to think of solution. Can apply to other abilities, class, etc. 11. Me against the dm. Two enter only one leaves. 12. Dave not here! Either cell phone, book, cute gamer across the way, bills, etc. Body maybe present if you lucky but mind is wandering. [/QUOTE]
