[QUOTE="Orlax, post: 6780411, member: 6801305"] Rarely if ever are we in the exact same set of circumstances, hence the same adjudication may not be necessary or proper for similar situations. Also. Feel free to bounce up off my table. I'm here to have fun, and if rules, or a rules lawyer are getting in the way of that I have no time for them. I'm playing D&D, I'm not controlling the freaking missiles. My players have fun, I have fun, there's very little need for rules extremism in that equation. Absolute consistency is unnecessary. I can almost always describe some kind of difference between one set of circumstances and another so as to account for the difference in adjudication. Mainly because I'm making everything up for the most part and am in no way beholden to writing down what I invent. If I had a player consistently attempting to insist on how things should be adjudicated because he thinks that's how they've been adjudicated in the past, well I wouldn't let that player hang around too long because they'd keep holding up my game with needless BS. I have about 4 hours a week to hang out with my friends and play D&D, it is essentially my stand in for the more traditional poker night. It is a casual game among friends, and not a one of them would commit to your level of extremism concerning my imagination game. [/QUOTE]
