[QUOTE="Emirikol, post: 2865990, member: 10638"] [b]A Game Players[/b] Our main ones have arisen from years of 'learning' what we don't like and reflect all of those others. We've updated them to be a lot less cynical however. Although the "be mature" statement is the best ever, realize that players are stupid and immature (and that's why they're not the DM ;) TABLE RULES Our table rules are set in cement and have been decided over years of feedback from our DM’s and players. We expect that all of our players always bring their “A” game to the table. “A” Game Players: 1. Always remember the necessities of gaming: House Rulebook, 3.5 PHB, character sheet, and a painted miniature. 2. Have consistent internet access for the discussion group. 3. Have their character finished and reviewed by the DM before the game starts and has a back-up character ready to go. 4. Have characters that aren’t evil or annoying, but are well-rounded and have something in common with other characters in the game. 5. Always leave mental garbage at the door and avoid talking about how bad their day was or why they’re late. They understand that the rest of the group doesn’t care and that we’re here to game, have fun, and forget about real life. 6. Understand that we have very limited gaming time so they avoid rude, non-game, cross-table talking. 7. Are here for mustering at 6:15 pm, ready to start gaming at 6:30pm, and are here until the end at 10:30pm. 8. CALL/EMAIL us if they can’t make it with as much lead time as possible and if they must show up late, all we hear is,”…and Krusk comes running up and he has an initiative of 18.” 9. IS IN-CHARACTER AND IN THE GAME. “A” Players appreciate and cooperate and speak in-character with other players and the DM’s NPC’s to help contribute to the game. 10. “A” Players say what weapon they attacked with or briefly describe their skill action checks. 11. “A” PLAYERS POLICE THEIR OWN: If you see a player who might be goofed up on his character sheet or needs an attitude change, set him straight. You have the DM’s permission. 12. “A” Players write down the other PC’s names and their characters attitude towards them. 13. Definition of Metagaming: Using out of game information for in-game cheating. Metagaming will drop your x.p. 14. Respect the other players and DM and aren’t be a stinker in attitude or body odor. They understand we’re here to have fun and they help make sure that everyone does. 15. Read some Conan books or comics and learn something about the world of Hyboria. It’s one of the reasons D&D exists. 16. Do NOT invite new people without permission. jh [/QUOTE]
