[QUOTE="green slime, post: 5343008, member: 1325"] Sorry for teh funny; its my ultimate threat when one of the players IMC starts power gaming. He is notorious, in our community. I'm not against the occasional [i]polymorph[/i], [i]planar binding[/i] or anything else within reason, because I don't play RAW. You started the "unpleasant insinuation" by refering to a "real DM". I just continued that line of thought :D . I find it funny to extend things like that. I was hoping you would see the reference to your own statement, and realise that some people may interpret it as sarcasm... ;) Yes, I have a strange sense of humour, but its better live, I assure you. At least, I hope it is.... Me too. And in muliple PvPvPvP scenarios, it gets messy. It also gets tedious, awaiting for responses, and gets ugly when accusations of non-partiality start flying around. Which they inevitably do, because it somebody's treasured character that got shafted by dice/fate/bad luck/poor planning/poor choices, and it's not often that players are willing to admit that. I'd just as soon not put myself through that (again). But yes, with the right crew, it is a lot of fun. I'll admit to being mildly tempted, but I realise I have nowhere near the amount of time needed to put a decent effort together. I need to get my ordinary campaign up and running again (the server with the houe rules was killed by the owner, so I need to rewrite from memory), have a test spec for work to complete, servers to patch together, managers to convince to give me more money, a trip tpo Brazil to prep for, and a MtG EDH gathering to beat my frinds at, a wife to placate, and children to amuse. It'd not be ready before Christmas. Ah. Everyone's human. I was worrying there was some mystical ability I'd missed: I'm just coming out of a 18 month hibernation, so still feeling a little rusty.
