[QUOTE="MissGrim, post: 3934019, member: 57949"] Well, sad to say this whole discussion is fairly moot at this point. I just called up the player in question and the DM and told them I was withdrawing from the group (after failing to point out to the player that perhaps his reaction to my disagreement was a bit extreme). It just seems like too much drama and inconvenience to me to play in a situation where this player is such a good friend of the DM and anytime I disagree with him I'm going to get a week of weird arguments. The whole thing gives me a vague "good old boys' club" feeling... taking a level four skill check disagreement into a *week* of RL argument and involving all sorts of other people is just dramatic and strange. *sigh* I do appreciate the help, though, and will certainly come here first if I ever have another rules-related question. Had I actually wished to continue with the group and prove my (pretend) wang was bigger than his this would have been a tremendous help. I've never done this before, but I hear rumors that people can find gaming groups made up of people they don't know using forums, bulletin boards at hobby shops, conventions, etc. - I think I will look into this. *grin* I'm sure most of you have seen this already (it's as old as dirt) but if you're ever in a similar game-drama situation it can cheer you up immensely: [URL=http://wadewilson.livejournal.com/11285.html]Pretendy Fun Time Games...[/URL] Edit: On a side note, and not to blame any of *you* for my non-gaming, you did help me come to this decision. I realized there were enough polite, level-headed gamers out there that I didn't have to settle for this, heh. I can keep looking, thanks. =P [/QUOTE]
