[QUOTE="EzekielRaiden, post: 9754243, member: 6790260"] Then perhaps you should consider the hypothetical when several other people are telling you that your experience is not as universal as you believe it to be. That having a player host, rather than the GM, can in fact be an established pattern. In other words...considering that the question is actually worth answering on its own merits, rather than doing, for what would be a third time, "I don't believe that happens, so I reject the hypothetical and will not consider it." Which is what you've done here, again. I'm willing to run things I hadn't considered and to be sold on things I had not originally planned. You're refusing to respond to my hypothetical. Again. Because that is now an established pattern. Three out of three. I responded to [I]your[/I] hypothetical by taking it seriously. I then gave you one of my own. It would be cool to actually take seriously the things I've proposed. You've misconstrued what I said. I was saying anyone [B]specific[/B] player, and that that is simply "entirely possible"--not even remotely guaranteed. But it's much easier to defeat a position I never took, that goes for ridiculous extremes, rather than responding to what I've said, isn't it? I swear there's a term for that. Haybloking? Silagepersoning? I swear, it's on the tip of my tongue! And for those three players, they're now just F'd. They literally [I]don't get to play[/I]. Because that? That is my experience. And if you can argue that your experience is an absolute universal, so the hell can I. [/QUOTE]
