[QUOTE="Wombat, post: 1383817, member: 8447"] Well, I voted "All", albeit conditionally. Our group is definitely of the "Story over rules" group -- we ignore a great number of rules if they get in the way of the flow of the story or the general fun we are having. For example we never use battle boards anymore, don't worry about most combat minutiae and the like. All of my players work up backgrounds on their characters -- where they came from, how they got here, often family histories and the like. Equally they all have a hand in determing the structure and the course of the campaign, as well as significant details. ("We don't play in Wombat's World, we play in [I]our[/I] world" is how one player puts it). On the other hand, accents, dressing up, and generally LARPing is far less common. We can usually tell when someone is speaking "In Character" by changes in word selection, references, etc., and sometimes changes in voice, but not always. So we generally fall into the definition given here as "hardcore roleplayers", but not entirely... [/QUOTE]
