Most of these will be common sense for almost everyone;
Please let us know as soon as possible if you can or cannot play a session. That way we make everyone else involved aware and allow schedules to adjust accordingly.
If you cannot stay for an entire session, please tell the DM ahead of time.
Please do not use our gaming sessions as recruiting grounds for other games. I am hoping to establish a solid core of players and friends who want to play in our games on a regular basis, not whenever there's nothing else going on.
Players who attend regular sessions will be given preference over drop-ins when it comes to running out of spots. In other words, if you play regularly, your seat will be "reserved" unless you notify us otherwise. As we get more regular players, drop-in spots may become unavailable. Not only is this the goal I am trying to reach, but I also think it's better for the continuity of the game.
Please respect the other players. Leave disagreements outside. If you don't feel you can resolve the situation in a friendly manner, please leave the group.
Please avoid political and religious discussions at the table. I'm not trying to repress anyone's point of view, it's just that these topics, more so than others, trigger emotional responses and can dominate a session.
Please sit at the table only to have fun. If you're definition of fun interferes with anyone else's fun, we will have to work on your definition.
Please don't worry about not knowing a rule or a game. I'm hoping that everyone who sits at the table will not mind teaching/ learning together.
If you disagree with a rule the DM has made, you may most certainly question him, in a polite manner. I don't have an encyclopedic knowledge of every rule. If, after questioning, you still disagree with the rule, please accept it at the table and discuss with the DM privately, after the game.
I may not always be right, but I will always end right.
If you would prefer to run a game, rather than play in a game, please start your own group. When it comes to DM's, much like Highlanders, there can be only one.
