[QUOTE="Trainz, post: 510461, member: 2122"] Exactly. Say:"OK, we won't play D&D" and play d20Modern. DO NOT USE A SCREEN. Such ignorants identify screens with D&D (if and when they go that far in their "research"). Also put a chess board on the table with the pieces on it. When she comes around, roll some dice, look into the d20 book, say some mumbo-jumbo like:"I got a move of opportunity" and move the pieces around, and proceed until she leaves. If she is smart enough to figure it all out (not likely), you weren't playing D&D, you where playing Modern. It will work. I remember back in the early 90's, I was working alone in an office, answering the phone after regular working hours and doing some minor accounting. My boss had left 10 minutes ago. I then proceeded to open the two Monstrous Compendiums I had just bought and started placing the sheets in the binders. I was almost drooling. The sheets where all over my desk. All of a sudden, my boss comes back in, having forgotten something. She comes to my desk, looking in the drawers to find what she forgot. She then notices the sheets. She even grabbed one and looked at it. She put it back down and said sorry, gotta go. I couldn't beleive my luck, but then I realized: all those binders and papers must have looked like homework to her. I'm telling you man, it is quite easy to fool that girl that wants to prevent you from playing. Just use your brain. You obviously have more than that ignorant bi@%&. You know what, I kinda envy you. You got a nice challenge in front of you. Makes you feel more alive. Have fun ! [/QUOTE]
