The Saga of Angry Guy Chapter Two- Meet Rick

In the last installment, we were introduced to two members of the D&D group- Angry Guy and Geosci dude. We witnessed Angry Guys tantrum after being awakened by Geosci dude. That, my friends, was just the tip of the angsty iceberg. Submitted for your perusal is a tale of dice and graphite; a story ( Read more... )

Yeah, a guy like this sounds like he would really poison the friendly atmosphere that you optimally want in a gaming group, turning a fun collaborative activity into a nasty, bitter competition between you and he ( ... )

This is not a playerocracy it's a GMtatorship

Well, excuse me, princess!

Some people LIKE words!

._. if it didn't come out that way I apologize... I completely agree with you! GMtatorship is good! You create a story, a world, a set of rules... if the players don't wanna go along then they should *find another game* more to their liking.

Hang on.
" “You guys have a month in the largest city in the game world. Do whatever you want for that time.” No one did anything. Nothing happened."

What the heck did the party do for a month? Sit on their asses starving?
Did no-one interesting walk past/start an interesting conversation within earshot? No shopping? No research? No relatives/cute locals to visit? No temple to pray in? No job hunting? No political stabbing/votes? Are the party a bunch of inanimate cabbages? After a few days of the party doing sweet eff all, why didn't you as the GM kick something off?

Maybe not inanimate cabbages, but definitely vampire watermelons. Nobody would hire those.

I dunno, I've met some wonderful vampire watermelons. Now, the were-tomatos, those are who ya need to watch out for.

Again- I was inexperienced. It was honestly my first time DMing; and I probably did make a few mistakes. That said, there were a few minor things that I had happen, but ultimately all the party really did was wander about, train, and then spend the evening drinking. And I think the Barbarian wandered about trying to seduce barmaids.

._.
A party who has a month of free time and does nothing, is a bad sign. They don't seem to be getting the spirit of the game. And AG? Don't even get me started. Ugh.

This Rick disapproves of the sucky Rick.

He gives me a bad name. D:

(Yes, that's really my name. No, I'm not the guy he's talking about. :p)

...I am so sorry for you having to survive this.

I confess, by this point I might've suggested, "Hey, maybe this isn't the campaign for you," and would've been cheerful about the raeg quit. "Don't let the door hit you on the way out!"

But I'm a bastard that way.
