The reason I pressed you to explain or justify the implied employer/employee relationship or why the gm is not allowed to say no to adding "a village" on the same "because I [don't] want to" entitling the player to create it over the GM's objections is because that keeps the "I want a village created" then stays under definition one. Your assessment of the gm as "extreme" and "excessively controlling" is indeed mere opinion, but it shifts towards definition two by having all of the social graces of telling the gm obviously unreasonable things like "it's [I]MY[/I] story, shut it and [I]do your [/I][B][I]job[/I][/B]" during any character creation disagreement unless you can explain why the rules or something else prevent the gm from saying no or definition one entitle the player to force the creation "a village" even over gm injection [/QUOTE]
