Didn't matter. They all understood what I was saying and trying to get across and translated that into "good acting" in their heads and responded to it.  There was an award for best roleplaying at the end of each session and I won quite a few, because what I was trying to do was good enough, even if my skill wasn't.  You don't need rollplay to roleplay.</blockquote>
