Judge Hades

We had the storms last night. Power outages and everything.

Got your PM and here we go. First off, know the rules of the game. I am not saying to memorize the books. That would be silly but know the basic gist of of the game mechanics and know where to look when you do need to look something up. Second, keep notes during the game. Make sure you know what is going on with the players. If you don't have good notes things can get a little chaotic, especially if you have a large group. Third, before starting make sure you have all your house rules down. DMs like to tinker, but don't tinker midgame. One thing that kills a campaign is inconsistancy. Fourth, if you do need to change a rule or three midgame consult the players first. make sure they are in the know and get their opinions. They just might like how things are, but be careful that the house rule isn't in their favor too much. Oh, if you can bring a computer to the session or make use of one they are very nice tools to have. When I run a campaign I do so behind a computer screen instead of a GM screen. There are a lot of tools one can find online to aid in game mastering. Also if you need more resources you can't do better than http://www.enword.org if you are doing a d20 System campaign.

Hey, if I am going to be decapitated, Dark Raven would be the one I would want. She decapitates in style.

Having a high post count does not give you special priviledges. I can tell you that by experience. If it did I would be a moderator and we all would be screwed!

You are one sick woman, Darque.

I could say something really naughty and taboo in most cultures about Meta and his daughter but I won't.

*Hades pounces on Dark Raven and shovens a girl scout down her throat* Damn, I thought I was grabbing a cookie.

Odd reasoning? Grommie, look who you are talking to. Odd reasoning is putting it mildly.

*munches on the Bible and Mothman's arm* Tasty, but it needs a bit of Lot's wife. :D

That is why I said, "first play through."

Now, common Kirottu. He can't be gay. He's Christian.

I rather have plastic surgery than plastique surgery.

I don't have a back door.

Hmmm... Interesting.

I have no authority. Wow, I have yet met a person stupid enough to give me any sort of authority.

Curious, considering the Baldur's Gate series is called epic and I've spent a single playthrough of the entire series in less than 60 hours. OMGOSH NOT EPIC! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I spent 80 plus hours alone on BG 1 and nearly a 100 hours on BG2. WHat were you doing?!?!? Speed gaming through it.

Yes, sadly it is. Next damn Christian who rings my damn door bell is going to get a Septim coin embedded in their skull.

Is it a shooter, a CRPG, or a hybrid? How does it compare to Oblivion?

Okay, that was a funny "fix."

Every good game comes to an end.

Only if it has games one wants to play which the X Box 360 doesn't, and I did vote twice.

I don't do online PnP. Just not in the habit of it. I am weirdly odd in that way. I wouldn't mind sending you guys a final copy of my campaign if one of you wants to run it.

I hate Easter, though Jesus was damn good faking his death and making millions of people over thousands of years beleive he came back fromthe dead. Brilliant con-man.

It has an Earthlike base bt as time goes on and with the nanite magics, along with a computer that hasn't had anything of a sort of routine maintenance for over a thousands upon thousands of years, things can get a little funky.

I think Fallout was better than PS:T.
