There has been a delicious in-game twist I could not have planned that has me almost giggling to myself. I won't mention it yet just in case one of our players stumbles across this thread. If this was a secure "GM" channel I'd throw it out there to share my good fortune: a player made an offhand de...

The only explanation is that they are voluntarily and purposefully falling over. I totally agree. Have you ever heard of "Slain in the spirit?" That is something I have witnessed firsthand on several occasions. I won't argue that it isn't voluntary, but I am persuaded that some folks sincerely beli...

Thanks for sharing your insight, Res -- much appreciated.

honorentheos: I am curious how you handled this, and how things are working out. Hey Bret - Thanks for the interesting update to your own game's progress. I often get a similar sense of exhaustion after many sessions where I felt like I was flying by the seat of my pants improvising what I hope is ...

Those are good points. Thank you for typing them. Nevertheless, even if they never challenge the sensei, certainly at some point the students are required to spar with each other. When they progress to yellow belt, then to blue belt, etc., wouldn’t they notice that their opponents’ punches continue...

in my opinion, it’s the right decision. Can you imagine the chaos that would ensue if states could restrict who could and couldn’t run for President?
