Did. The problem with scenarios is, no matter how difficult you make something, people will think its easy for them. Boy that is true. It's one of those things DMs have to constantly deal with; ego.

The thing is, games like D&D have a way around it. They use mathematics to calculate why you lose and how. But that kind of structure sadly wouldn't work in these threads.

That's why you need to be the Grand-Master DM that smashes egos with seething rage. ... Or you can just explain why they can't do what they say they do. If you want to go that route.

Aside from my vagueness on my time of completion, did you have problems with how I ran it?

Seemed ok but I'll reread it later on.

That Babylon 5 video made me laugh. I am thinking Beat copied the wrong one by mistake because I honestly don't know what he was trying to show with it. It's just two people talking the entire time.

Pretty much Beatboks entire team comp. is people talking in a way he finds interesting.

If he came up with something creative I'd be totally happy to let him pass. But instead he went 'lol lasers bounce off me because my dude had an epiphany'.

He just goes off on these weird tangents and thinks because no one else knows his characters that they can do anything they want. Honestly I'm pretty sick off arguing in circles with him.

I saw a photo of Steve McQueen and thought 'man Lunacyde looks a lot like that dude'. Thoughts?

It's all part of the fun of scenarios. Take advantage of DM ignorance and exploit, exploit, exploit.

But it never really works. I almost feel like running a proper D&D game just so it has rules and people can't do stupid shit. But people would get bored too quick and throw a tantrum that they couldn't use some obscure shitty character in Faerun or something. fucking text games

I would be down with a real text D&D game. We wanted to get one going at one point a while back. I think it was called... oh yes, the Firefly RPG. Now why did that fall to the wayside, hmmm? Really though, I would be down with a real D&D game. I woudn't put nearly as much thought into the character bio though because odds are, he/she is going to die.
