"you once again find yourselves summoned to the red velvet halls of the manor. inside you are quickly moved passed the rouge room to the richly crimson tones of red velvet hall . . . "246 - before announcing you've rolled a critical hit, having the villians do massive dammage to the pc's, quietly get out of your chair, gather/compose yourself quietly for a moment, and then burst into your critical hit interpretive dance routine. (which is a mix of the running man, stirring the pot, and something you like to call "the penetrada")247 - during the dance, if it comes at a life or death situation for the pc's you may decide to use the 3rd person chant "Go DM! Go Dm! Go DM!" while stirring the pot.248 - work all week on a flash animation of what a really creepy dungeon looks like . . . then proceede to tell the players that the campaign is taking a new turn, away from dungeon crawling, and into loan management, and land equity taxes.249 - end each session with that cheesy narration ending from the adam west campy batman show from the 60's. "same bat channel . . . same bat time . . ."250 - figure out a way to bring visual aids to the table. "after investigating the farm, you only see some signs of a struggle, and this decapatated cow carcass . . ." lift sheet over cow carcass and show players . . .251 - use your sisters barbie dolls instead of hand painted models. have the players catch you spending more time combing the "giantess' " hair, and less time actually paying attention to the game.</blockquote>
