[QUOTE="BlueBlackRed, post: 1981927, member: 24239"] Here's our list of unwritten, but understood rules: 1) Under no circumstances are illegal drugs allowed in the house. I am near-psychotically anti-drug. I do not budge on this one. We have a player that has smoke a lil something in the past & he is aware of this. 2) Drinking alcohol is allowed but heavily discourage. 3) Smoking is to be done in the front yard, preferably during a thunderstorm. Be considerate of where you place the butts & related trash. 4) Bring your own food. Feel free to share, but you are not obligated to do so. 5) Pizza is usually ordered, but not always. 6) Be considerate of others. 7) No one under 18 allowed unless a son/daughter of a current member, and then only for a one-shot. 8) If you will not be able to attend, please let us all know the day before. 9) Do not hog tablespace. There is too little as it is. 10) At the end of the evening, return the room to its original condition. 11) Please only use the furniture in the manner it was intended. If you're 300 pounds and sitting on the arm of the couch, my 2" 20 sider will find your forehead from across the room. 12) Cocked and on the floor dice are rerolled. 13) Cheating is not allowed, but I do not feel I should have to watch you. If you feel you need to cheat, then obviously we chose poorly when we allowed you into the group. 14) I have cats. My cats love pizza and dice. They will go to great ends to get either. You have been warned. 15) All dice that are lost under the couch will be returned to their owner IF found. 16) Please no laptops. They're noisy & take up too much space on the table. 17) After 11:00pm, volume of voices need to be kept under control. If the wife comes after me with a rolling pin, I come after you with my medical bill. 18) Ordering players around is not allowed, but suggestions are fine. 19) No powergaming & no munchkinism - unless we're actually playing Munchkin. 20) Rule #0 "The DM is always right." is always in effect. BUT considering there have been multiple DMs in the past and many in the future, we shall try to remain using the same rulings. If this is not done, all the players need to know before something bad happens. 21) It's only a game. If you are going to lose your temper, count to 10. If that doesn't work, time to take a week or 2 off. 22) Try to keep OOC conversations to a realistic minimum. 23) New members get an inspecified trial period. If any established member does not like the new player, he is not invited back. 24) My wife has dictated to me that this is a "guys only" night. If we ever get a female gamer, a new location is required. 25) Everyone must be, not act as, a mature and considerate adult. (this covers several of the above rules :)) [/QUOTE]
