Session Killed and Destroyed by....this

Stone Angel

First Post
OK we have taken a break from good old DnD to play Mutants and Masterminds. Our group consists of Mike, Deb(mikes wife), Scott, and myself. We just lost two players that led us to play something else also.

So anyway this requires some background. Mike and Deb have a beautiful house but it has become too small with the addition of their third child a lovely baby girl. So they have wanted to move and have been trying to sell their house for sometime now. But they live near an interstate so that has been the major hangup for the better of six months. Anyway.


I draw their parties flat on the map. Only one of the party actually requires sleep so they have a one bedroom apt. for now. I label the area "bedroom" appropriately along with "kitchen", "bathroom" etc.

So Mike comes back and reads the map, scrunches his face up, indicates the area labeled "bedroom"and says "Does that say Freezer?" Everyone laughs and I reply "Is that why you have had so much trouble with the house? I am not buying that place, it has like four freezers in it!"

Result session totally and utterly worthless, I had tears coming down my face, mike snarfed his Hawiann Punch out of his nose, Scott spitt his Rumplemintz and coke down his shirt. And Deb left because she was laughing too hard.

Destroyed I say DEE-STROYED

Anyone else have anything like this?

We usually wait until everyone can breathe normally and stop laughing again and again. Then we sit back down and get back to looting and fighting and whatever else is going on.
 

Top Ten Things to do when your game sessions end inexplicably...

10.) Check for a gas leak.

09.) Slowly back away from the table.

08.) Check the basement for pods.

07.) Double check the rules and make sure the game isn't supposed to end that way.

06.) Be sure to get more than one hour of sleep in a weekend.

05.) Lower "proof" of beverages consumed during the game.

04.) Create house rule that all inexplicable endings play out as dream sequences.

03.) Have the best artist at the table draw a reset button and everyone hit it repeatedly.

02.) Shell out for the x.5 version that explains how to avoid inexplicable endings.

...and the number one thing to do when your game sessions end inexplicably...

01.) Cut back on the kindness.
