When the DM says the game is at 10, that means arrive at 10 - it doesn't mean that 10 is when you should leave your house to go pick up the other player carpooling with you, stop to pick up some snacks, and then arrive for the game, making everyone else wait for you!Don't sulk! You can't always get what you want - sometimes you roll badly, sometimes the treasure you want isn't there, and sometimes the DM rules against you. Deal with it instead of just sitting there all quiet and pouting and not doing anything except mechanically making your die rolls when prodded. You're ruining it for the rest of us!Don't argue with the DM! Yes, sometimes the DM makes a bad call, and sometimes it'll negatively affect your character. But making everyone stop for ten minutes while you start up a debate about how the rule really works, checking the rulebooks, splatbooks, the FAQ, published errata sheets, and forum posts, is even less fun! Just talk to the DM after the game!</blockquote>
