It's always sort of annoying when the group spends way too long on "lol so funny shenanigans" stuff. Like I enjoy light hearted games and joking around, but I've had it too many times where, like you described, it takes 4 hours.

Those are fighting words right there. Did he by chance apply damage for the anal rape

Even with the senechal it would be one of the better ins.

A senechal of a rich Lord/king would want to conduct business inside the keep because he's too good to do anything out in the commons. So even if the wizman insisted on doing business directly, the players could still spring and kill the guards and intimidate the senechal to take them to the king, disguised as guards of course.

Now if the dm really wanted to be a dick he could declare there is a 12 hour debilitating sickness after stone to flesh. So when wizman let's them go, the king witnesses a gruesome display of guys rolling around in agony, puking and shitting themselves allover the floor.

>>40393697
Yeah, the wizard in my party got anally tentacle raped in the first session. The player was a good sport about it and found it hilarious but his character will cry about his ravaged butt hole whenever he gets the chance.

>>40393697
I would roll to find new DM

>>40393219
I'm curious who you think is at fault since you were there. From the reading it's the Shaman's fault.

>>40393834
He specifically told me that it was an alternative to just killing my character, and yes he did apply damage.

Both mental and physical.

The truck is a carrot, though it could also just be scenery (or a plot hook for later). You not getting stuff you specifically go and ask for is not.

In that post you complain about:
>I can't have an assault rifle at chargen
>A guy wants to wear armor a lot even though it isn't realistic
>DM doesn't want to redo his story because his BS reason the truck didn't work is easier to fix than he (I assume a non-mechanic) realized

Literally, you're going on about realism when it benefits you and your character or inconveniences another PC, and getting upset when the DM goes with something that's based more around what makes for a good game.

>>40393219
>I still play with them because it's the only group on meetup around me

Been there. I had to leave the only frequently playing group near me due to a whole host of issues.

>30+ something "veteran" constantly min-maxing and power gaming leaving it no fun for anyone else.
>GM following terribly written campaign books to the letter. "If it doesn't say to give you a hint then I'm not going to. I don't care that it's been 4 hours and there hasn't been a single bit of combat."
>Players all older than 25 still obsessed with rape, gay and sex based jokes.

>>40396383
>wanting to gear my character GM won't allow me to have an AR-15
Without telling me where your game is based I can't pass judgment, I mean what if it's set in the Uk?

>other PC playing "regular guy" who does medieval reenactment, so has full fucking plate mail
Guy has to pass endurance rolls constantly, would be super hot, he would be slow and inflexible, couldn't carry anything else. I think that having even replica plate mail on during a zombie apocalypse would be a massive disadvantage where as having a modern assault rifle would make some situations far less tense.

Looking back, I do find amusing how at the climax of BOTH battles where bill player attempted to kill party members, everyone suddenly started to have shit rolls, the time prior to this one was hilarious, session being cut due to GM having to attend to his class, so we resumed a couple hours later, still failling our rolls, that day we played till 3am, and we all celebrated when the traitor PC was finally dead

Player X: 'Hurr durr but it's an RPG I can do whatever I want to!'

He was from a vault, and lost his license, meaning he could't practice medicine INSIDE the vault. He was free to perform medicine unquestioned otuside of it.

Now as for the player killing, the wasteland is a harsh place, and as most post apoc settings you can expect backstabbing and betrayers. The GM got kind of sick of the betraying after the second time, he's GMing D&D now, made rule about no player killing and said we all agreed to work together before campaing started.

Oh well excuse me for not noticing the things you didn't write.

>... most post apoc settings you can expect backstabbing and betrayers.
True if say they're NPC's, because almost all PnP RPG's are designed with the intention that the party is going to work together.

PC 1 kills PC 2.
PC's 3 and 4 get angry.
PC 5 sides with PC 2.
All PC's engage in combat with one another, meanwhile the evil warlock they were on their way to stopping ends the world.
Game ends in a confusing PvP mess.
Players laugh think it was all fantastic and commence throwing their shit at the walls.
GM dies a little inside looking at his pile of game unused notes.

Quick story from a few months ago (back before summer hit and everyone wandered off)

Our party is fairly high level, and the Wizard has started really getting his teeth into some nasty magic. He spends most of his downtime between missions researching spells since he doesn't play well with other Wizards.

His latest round of research was into his first 8th level spell and it was a partial failure. No one but the DM (who obviously colluded on this) was informed.

>We're in a fairly intense battle with the most recent branch of the Evil Doom Cult™

>Briefly knock out the evil captain guy we're fighting, his healers are moving in to get him back in the fight though

>Wizard shouts "I cast Stabilize on him"

>Wat?

>Stop that, he's the bad guy.

>Also you are not a Cleric/Druid, this is silly

>Wizard insists, DM accepts, rolls are made, faces are palmed

>There's a flash of light, an overpowering smell of hay and manure, and a faint neighing sound

>Unconscious bad guy turns into a miniature stable, his healers stop their efforts and try to figure out just what the hell happened

>Wizard dances triumphantly and shouts "GET IT?" then lights the small flammable building on fire

>Little horses run out...

He wound up using that half-assed Polymorph Any Object spell five times over the course of the mission. He nearly passed out laughing each time.

> What is player agency in RPGs?
> What is 'rewarding creative thinking' and being flexible as a GM?

This isn't carrot and stick, and for the record 'That DM' might as well have been wearing a conductors cap since he was railroading the shit out of that group. Only a complete fucktard would go "Gee, the PC is looking at a modern setting based off of their real life situation so it's totally unreasonable for the player to base their PC's actions off of that and the character's background and skill set."

I would like to think that some players drinking and one being on pain pills from a fall he took earlier that day let us to the point it did.
I'd say we usually aren't that bad. Most that happens are shennanigans involving intimidating people out of their horses and using disproportionate force on old wanderers they find in the woods.

>Be lvl. 1 DnD 5e Ranger.
>After a series of non stop fights, be down to 1 hp.
> One more shitting bandit to go.
>Bandit gets taken down by a surprise cleric that happene to enter the town.
D.M.:Roll to see if you stay conscious anon.
Rolls a 1, therefore passes out on top of the cleric.
>IC wake up in a tent with wounds healed.
>Head outside.
>Greeted by a jovial Rogue and a blushing Cleric.
Rogue:Hail Ranger, we are in need of a guide in this land.
>Join up and pathfind away.

And that is how our party met.

Well there was also an elven Ranger who was my bounty mark, who got caught btw. But she's a snooty elven bitch unlike the qt cleric so she's relegated as the stalker
