tough call

It was hard to choose between "Teenagers from Outer Space" and "Dungeons and Dragons," but I went with "Teenagers" to be different, and as a tribute to our Pop Culture Fiend, who ran such entertaining TfOS games back in the mists of prehistory when dinosaurs roamed the Earth and I had time to role-play. *laughs*

Interesting Selection

I have been gaming since I was nine, have tried countless systems and games, and have not played (or did not care for) most of the games on the list. LOL.

Amber Diceless RPG is my absolute favorite.  I'm bigger on the Role, not the Roll.

ROLE Playing

I sometimes have difficulties with getting the players into their ROLES.  They'd rather roll.  It's especially tough when I get into a role and put on a voice that I think frightens them that I'm so much into it.

I had a character and played him like he should have been played

 

 

He was Evil....

He was ruthless.....

He Was Power Hungry....

He was killed by the party, burnt, and pissed on.....

Good times :-)

And they couldn't handle real evil.  They like to think they're playing evil, but they're not.

I have to say Call of

I have to say Call of Cthulhu, because some of the best storytelling comes from that game.  With a great GM and a good crew of investigators, you can have so much fun going insane.
