Take more than two sentences to explain something? You are a

Post by Lago_AM3P »

(Note: I am not diming anyone out here. This happened to me in-game like a few minutes ago and I'm still upset.)

What the title says, kiddies.

This is especially true if you're contradicting a long-held opinion or doing something that might be interpreted as grabbing more power. Even if it's in the rules and you have actual game designer quotes and/or you can prove it through a chain of logic.

You are a munchkin if you can't explain your position in two sentences and you are ruining the game.

Jesus Christ, you idiots. I don't know HOW you can be self-righteous about your laziness and ignorance. And you douches also are proud about it, too. THIS IS WHY little stupid shit like the Pious Templar and the Consecrated Harrier get super nerfed while they publish bullshit like Initiate of Mystra.

Thanks for ruining my game, bitches. Choke on poison.

Eh, kinda tame. No references to either bestiality or coprophilia. I'm deducting a few points.
In this moment, I am Ur-phoric. Not because of any phony god’s blessing. But because, I am enlightened by my int score.

OK, nonsense.
Who were the ones you were playing with?

Did you try to explain that WoTC is actively ruining the game with trash rules/updates?

I was going to comment, but I lost intrest halfway through the first post. Your argumnets work better if you stick to catchy soundbites, like "Andy Collins is a flip-flopper" :tongue:
"But transportation issues are social-justice issues. The toll of bad transit policies and worse infrastructure—trains and buses that don’t run well and badly serve low-income neighborhoods, vehicular traffic that pollutes the environment and endangers the lives of cyclists and pedestrians—is borne disproportionately by black and brown communities."

It started with people bitching that monks get to use TWFing with flurrying. Per the FAQ update.

It all went downhill from there.

I really need to come up with a term for the 'roleplayurs' that's as insulting and perjorative as munchkin. Obviously I will spend all week on this.

Check the MPIMS thread. That's when I will have finished getting a leg up on the pile.

I have seen attempts to label this group as "Oompaloompas".

Why call them a bunch of musical technicolor midgets from an odd film? Who knows.

But then munchkins are technicolor musical movie midgets too. So maybe its poetic justice or something.

Mind you its probably more entertaining and easy to pull of mocking variants of the oompaloopadoopitydoo song than it is to pull off variants of the lollipop guild or whatever.

Edit: How the heck do you spell lollipop?

It's "lollipop".

I'm personally fond of "Drama Queens". If you could find something that was about judging a book by its cover, that would be good. After all, the thing we are really pissed off at these yahoos for is the fact that they give the titles of things more import than their actual whole beings.

I don't have a problem with people who say "I want to play a romantic swordsman, so I'm taking all the romantic swordsman abilities". I do have a problem with the dumbasses who say "I want to play a romantic swordsman, so I took the Swordsman PrC and the Romancer PrC". The one is a logical extension of representing the character you want in the game. The other is collecting a series of titles that imply the character you want.

It's like getting The Name of the Rose for your flower database.
