ReplyDeleteThere was a lot of frothing and teeth-gnashing but I don't think anyone truly meant anything personal by any of it.
I'm glad you found the thread and were able to provide your personal comments and insight.

From part of that thread over on the HM boards:

Holy shit! Someone posting something subjective! In their own blog!
The amount of objective GMing advice I can offer is very small.
ReplyDelete*Don't eat the dice.
*Don't set the players on fire.
*Always wear a condom.
That's about it.
