[QUOTE="jdrakeh, post: 2651766, member: 13892"] I think the problem is, rather, that I am taking games other than D&D into consideration, whereas you are not (I actually mentioned, by name, the RPG in which Death by Squirrel is possible further up the thread). Yeah. In most games that I've played in or run, players don't find stuff like that 'hillarious'. Like I said, we aren't going to see eye to eye on anything. I mean things like Conan dying every few game sessions - doesn't make sense. Or Odysseus dying (at all, really) doesn't make sense. Having a heroic PC decapitated by a squirrel doesn't make sens (but can happen in Rolemaster). And if you let the dice rule your game, all of these things [i]can[/i] happen, eventually [i]will[/i] happen, and not make sense when they [i]do[/i] happen. But I digress, we're not going to see eye to eye on any of this. You seem to be putting [i]your[/i] words in [i]my[/i] mouth and making ad-hominem attacks. I tried to break off the conversation politely by saying that we'd never see eye to eye, but you felt the need to continue it on a rather insulting level. I'll make it easy for you.
