[QUOTE="prabe, post: 8253543, member: 7016699"] Whether your position has moderated, or whether it's the wording, I find this much less objectionable (as in almost not at all) than your prior way of putting it, which A) focused on the GM's [I]notes[/I] and B) at least [I]seemed[/I] to imply that finding out what was in the GM's notes was almost the entirety of play. EDIT: And I know exactly why that other phrasing bothered me so greatly: It sounds an awful lot like playing through an AP-style campaign, where the point--the only reason for play the style really supports--is to find out where the AP's story goes. Nothing any character brings to the game matters at all. I [I]loathe[/I] AP-style play, as a player. Even shorter published adventures intended as one-shots almost inevitably get on my nerves by the end. I make a concerted effort not to run an AP-style campaign--that's most of why I don't prep more than the current session. [/QUOTE]
