[QUOTE="terrestrialboy, post: 1046317, member: 5138"] 1.) What is the best number of players at the table, whether as a DM or player yourself? I've always had the easiest time managing six players. 2.) How often should you be able to game in an ideal world? Once a week. 3.) How long should those sessions be? Four to Six hours seems to work well. 4.) The poll handled percentage of Crunch to Flavor, but what are some of the specifics behind your vote? I enjoy the roleplaying experience and the flavor of setting and players being their characters. I crunch a lot of info into my setting and cram a lot into my players, but my favorite sessions have been the ones where I mainly sit back and watch the characters interact (the record for my group is a 12-hour session, 8:00 PM to 8:00 AM, where absolutely no combat took place, it was entirely roleplaying!). 5.) If you could choose the single best next book to become available to you, what would it be, what form would it be in (hardback, softback, PDF), and how much would that book cost (please be reasonable)? There's so many. I usually keep up on anything from Green Ronin, and can hardly wait for their products on a regular basis. Necromancer's Tome of Horrors II is on the horizon, and I'm looking forward to that. I like hardback products, but like them more reasonably priced. I gt Gorilla Warfare from Atlas Games at Gen Con, and it was a nice book, but a hardcover, 125 page book that costed $30 was not a nice buy. Now, Tome of Horrors, which was 325 pages and still $30 is more like it. I like a good amount of material for my money, and I don't mind paying upwards of $40 for a good hardback book with a lot of great material. I'd easily pay $40 for the Tome of Horrors II if it is as good as the first. As for Green Ronin, I am waiting with patience for Crooks for Mutants and Masterminds, an expensive line of products, but the quality is so great, that I don't mind paying the price. So, in all this rambling, I would have to say Crooks would be the book I'd like. [/QUOTE]
