You know you need a new DM when...

[Itchy]

Anybody got any stories? Well here\'s one;

You\'re lost and happen upon a monastary... but all the monks inside have taken an oath of silence and can\'t give you directions

Anybody got any other DM horror stories that are kind of funny looking back now?lol

 

[Trevor]

Well whenever we used to ask our DM a question about stuff he would say \"Maybe... maybe not.\"

After a while that really drives you insane.

Also our WoD GM was overheard in the shower saying loudly \"KILL! MAIM! REND! TEAR! KILL!\" over and over. The only GM I\'ve known who could scare me shitless in a roleplaying game.

We used to take turns running games. I always hated it when a certain member of our group took a turn - his DM screen was plastered with \"My world, my rules\". Lots of fun....

You know it\'s time to change when the DM turns up at 09:00 \'to prepare\' and you\'re supposed to start playing at 21:00.

 

[ipaintminis]

...when he kills you 3 times, and dosent get the hint that you wont die!

happened with my wizard in the campaign we are in now, 3 times a charm i say

 

[wiccanpony]

when you can bribe the DM to conveniently roll in your favor with a plate of hot chocolate chip cookies.:innocent:

 

[Joshua]

ok dumb question, but please enlighten me, the only gw (ex) fanboy: what the heck is a dm? i played vampire once and it sounds pretty much like the guy who moderates the game
... data moderator or something?

 

[Calavera]

Word..
What\'s a DM ? :/

 

[Primeval]

Joshua - it\'s Dungeon Master, from Dungeons and Dragons, same thing as a GM (Game Master) today.

EDIT: I have now proved that I am a bigger geek than Joshua or Calavera since I knew this and they did not lol

You ain\'t no geek girl

 

[Fizl]

Bloody am!! I fit the criteria -

Dungeon master (with the books and everything )
Into computers big styley (and with computer qualifications)
Like science and maths
Like little metal soldiers

Unfortunately I can\'t cap it with train spotting!

Shaz

 

[Sturmhalo]

Thank god you CAN\'T cap it with train spotting! lol

As for the other stuff, it\'s quite forgivable (we all have our nerdy ways... Field Grey anyone?)

 

[Itchy]

Hey, what are you two doing knowing what a DM is... you\'re ratings are way to high for that kind of knowledgelol

Yup, it\'s the Dungeon Master, the guy who throws the baddies at you and desides the kind of world you\'ll play in... that kind of thing. Just hope he don\'t throw one of these at you;

Yup, finally got pics of him (thanks Mike!) but even with the light tent i still didn\'t get all of him

 

[Trevor]

OK Itchy, so when are the pics going up?

 

[Itchy]

Well, i\'ve submited him, but he\'s still waiting. But you can see him here: http://www.coolminiornot.com/78284

You know, i think you and DR have had the biggest hand in helping me learn to paint. Not there yet, but i\'m getting better every mini

 

[Zora]

When he tells you \"your character wouldn\'t do that\"...WHAT?!

Or when he\'s the only one in the group who doesn\'t understand your motivations for roleplaying a certain way. (different game)

 

[Dark Zealot Studios]

when the adventure starts with a duck walks in to the tavren and ask to hirer your party for job then a secound duck walks in kills the first and says your all fired.

 

[Infidel Castro]

...he\'s in prison for regicide.
