[QUOTE="Rel, post: 1999951, member: 99"] Before you bag on [i]The Core[/i] you should know that it was written by an ENWorlder... My addtion to this thread has to: "Gaines" (verb) as in "Way to Gaines me, dude!" Gaines means to point out something that is disadvantageous to the party (sometimes fatally so) or a party member that had gone unnoticed by everyone including the GM. For example: GM: "You slip off the rooftop and plunge 80 feet to the ground beneath!" *starts rolling d6's* Player 1: "Wait! I've got a Ring of Feather Fall that I have never used before!" GM: "Oh that's right! I remember when you bought that thing at 3rd level. Well you take no damage then." Player 2: "But I thought that you were wearing a +1 Ring of Protection and a Ring of Sustenance..." Player 1: "Aw crap! You're right! Way to Gaines me, dude!" GM: "You plunge to your death!" Player 2: "I get his rings!!" Origin - We once had a guy in our group named Gaines who did this all the time...except when it was his character who stood to lose. We don't play with him any longer or miss him. [/QUOTE]
