    Default The Great DM Pagliacci

    Heard joke once: Man goes to GiantITP Forum. Says the game he plays has him depressed. Says the rules seem harsh and cruel. Says he feels all alone at the table where the player actions are vague and uncertain. Posters say, "Treatment is simple. The DM is allowed to exert a lot of control over the game to make it fun for the players. Go and ask him. That should clear up the rules." Man bursts into tears. Says "But Posters... I am DM." Good joke. Everybody laugh. Roll a natural twenty. Curtains.

    That joke works on multiple levels. Kudos.

    Better get a rotating GM thing going.

    If you refuse to compromise, you may blow up the game.

    Aye, otherwise it might end in tragedy.

    But that's enough clowning around for now.
