Those role-playing games... They're trouble, I tell ya!
« on: August 19, 2009, 11:41:37 PM »
Why, back in my day... you kids never coulda got away with this!

Okay, really. I think people who attack other people with hammers have serious problems. And I think that people who are under the impression that playing D&D makes people attack other people with hammers... have serious problems.

It's a good thing the victim was 5th level, or he'd be dead right now.

Well, yeah. When you consider the negatives to Spot for sleeping...

(At least, I THINK there's a penalty to spot if you're asleep... isn't there? The bad guys always snuck into our fighter's room, so I'm not sure. :P)

Too bad he didn't have Mordenkainens Faithful Watch Dog cast...

-==- blast from the past -==-

Graham: Ugh. There are there are seven ogres surrounding you.
Picard: How can they surround us I had Mordenkainens Magical Watch Dog cast?
Graham: No you didn't.
Picard: I totally did. You asked me if I wanted any equipment before this adventure and I said no, but I need material
components for all my spells, so I cast Mordenkainens Faithful Watch Dog.
Graham: But you never actually cast it.

GM: You're in a ten foot by ten foot room. There are no windows or doors.
GIRL THE GM DIDN'T WANT TO PLAY: How do I get out?
GM: You don't!
