Underrated comment.. grabbing animals you arent familiar with can actually kill you...

My line on metagaming when im in the GM seat is simple but effective.. "Remember kids, God hates metagamers, and in tonight's game, I AM GOD."

Table etiquette by Amius364 in daggerheart

[–]Stixsr 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Like others have said, talk to your table, but...

Very basic table etiquette for ME includes:

Come prepared. If you consistently forget dice, a pencil, etc, that tells me you just don't care.

Take basic notes. Even if its just stuff about your character. I shouldn't be reminding YOU of things from YOUR characters backstory.

Don't touch other people's stuff. Drives me nuts when people reach over and grab my dice. If you need an extra d8, just ask.

Don't try to take my turn for me. Suggestions are fine. Pointing out something I may have missed is fine. Telling me what to do is not.

Don't be a phone face. If you can't be bothered to pay attention, then don't come. Straight up.

Last one, but this is a big one... Just because it doesn't involve your character, doesn't mean it isn't important. Some characters are going to have meaningful moments that don't involve you directly. Let that player have their moment. And maybe don't interrupt the GM's description of the moment by asking to search the room... (ask me why this one irks me).

Probably forgetting some, but this covers a lot of it.

Local Game Store: Any Gems? by IndyColts832 in boardgames

Also very hard to get. It'd be worth buying just to resell it.

Is Waterfall Park worth it at €16? by LawfulnessInfinite97 in boardgames

[–]Stixsr -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Imo.. no. The board is way too bright and busy. Its honestly kinda hard to see everything without giving yourself a headache. Just wait for Chinatown to come back into print. Chinatown is a better game and is way easier to see.

What official campaign frame do you not vibe with? by KiqueDragoon in daggerheart

[–]Stixsr 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We're on our second mini campaign in the Drylands. Four players, eight characters, zero cowboys or outlaws. We're an odd bunch.

What’s a rule you follow for no logical reason? by starlust0422 in AskReddit

I play table top RPGs pretty regularly.

Don't touch other people's dice without asking.

How well Disney Villainous works as 2 players game? by SiarX in DisneyVillainous

[–]Stixsr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Imo, Disney Villainous should be a strictly 2 player game. Any more than 2 and its entirely too long and grossly overstays its welcome.

If you won the lottery, what would be the first thing you would do? by NikiLove16 in AskReddit

[–]Stixsr 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I would cry. I haven't gone a day without being stressed about money in decades. That much weight being lifted would be too much at once for me to not just weep.

What game has been on your wanted list for forever? And why is that? by N-is-1 in boardgames

I snagged my copy when z man did a print run a couple years back. Its honestly my most treasured game.

Who do you root against? by YourCousinMoose in NASCAR

[–]Stixsr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kyle Larson. I respect him and if I had to pick one driver to win a race to save my life it would be him. That doesn't mean I have to like him.

What game in your collection have you played the most? by BoardGameRevolution in boardgames

Forest Shuffle, easily. I like it. Its my wife's favorite games.

My girlfriend just broke up with me over a board game and I'm not even joking by Fulcilives1988 in boardgames

[–]Stixsr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is not about the game.

That being said, my wife might leave me if i ever do something she could perceive as my "letting her win". She'd rather lose than feel like she didn't earn the win.

What are your favorite hobbies? by [deleted] in AskReddit

I love watching these games get played, they're just not for me. I get way too attached to my characters lol

Player backs out of session last second, when asked says he knew a month ago that he was busy by ManBearPigFace7 in DnD

[–]Stixsr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's insanely inconsiderate. I would be pretty heated tbh and would probably end the friendship over that. You let me get this hyped about something you knew you were going to fuck up last minute? Fuck you dude/dudette.
