[QUOTE="Olaf the Stout, post: 3330856, member: 13703"] [B]Worst Player:[/B] A guy that I was sort of friends with as he lived down the road from me. Big metagamer and tried to powergame wherever possible. If the game wasn't fun for him he would do something stupid to make sure that it ruined things for everyone else. He seemed to enjoy doing that. Would try and kill his character if he had decided that his character was doomed or wasn't going to dominate the game like he wanted. Was paranoid that the GM was out to get him. I took him along to a session of a group I was regularly playing in. This wasn't D&D, it was a game in the Harn world using the GM's own homebrew system. No-one's character died in the whole year's worth of sessions that we had played to that point. He managed to get his character killed in the first session, despite the GM giving him numerous chances to save himself. In the car ride home he claimed that the GM had it in for him. I couldn't believe it! [B]Best Player:[/B] I don't know if I've seen a "best" player so far. One of my current players is a very good roleplayer and his characters are very memorable. However he can sometimes sidetrack the game with his out-of-game comments. He also tries to take a mile when I give him an inch. ;) A good player otherwise though. I did have one GM that I would consider to be the "Best GM". I only got to play a couple of sessions with him but they were so much fun. I felt like my character could do absolutely anything and he would be prepared for it. He always had a big list of people wanting to play in his games. Olaf the Stout [/QUOTE]
