I confess, I understand why you need to be a slave to the dice if you think the Referee / DM / GM is literally competing against the players. But as that's a stupid way of framing tabletop, I'm not going to accept it.

If I may dare to bring an ounce of nuance to the "Don't fudge dice rolls" narrative. I think if the results of your dice rolls are creating situations where you feel as though you need to fudge that says more about the integrity of your rule system and tables than anything else

>Impartiality Doing whatever your favorite patron wants is not impartiality, D&D is not a pvp wargame and pretending it is is why you guys don't have games.

>D&D is a PvP war game, False, and provably so >Co-op vs ref is boring That's an opinion, one formed by sitting through bad games. You have my sympathies. >Why the extreme hostility I treat every bro with exactly the same courtesy they treat everyone else.

Well this entire interaction has proven, once again, that I should just stick to my policy of preemptively blocking anyone with bronouns in their bio. Thank you for being such a shining example of why. Enjoy the void.

Okay boys and girls, it's been fun but it's about time to wrap it up, so in conclusion. Fudging doesn't just mean combat. It's wrong to fudge combat rolls. It's sometimes correct to fudge other rolls. Glad we had this talk.

Dungeoneer Nobleshield Dubious Origins Flooded Realms That's trying to absolve you of your responsibility. The dice didn't set the traps or difficulty, you did. It's your responsibility to make sure the encounters are designed with a certain probability of player success. It's why Gary talks about probability curves.

>Gygax was a mega racist and the original creator of the Forgotten Realsm wrote musings on what tiefling breast milk tasted like. You forgot to attach the gigachad.

"I don't watch soccer because the ref cheats by touching the ball with his hands sometimes! That's not fair to the players!"

If you really hold this position the onus is on you to prove what competition is being rigged when the DM uses the authority granted to him BY THE RULES OF THE GAME to ignore dice rolls and select results. Screaming "well WE play it differently" just proves you're a rule 0er

"As you turn the corner, you see a group of orcs engaged in ripping apart the corpses of captives" "Ermm, I didn't hear any dice roll over there. You're just fudging this encounter and I don't want to play"

Limitations, far from constraining creativity, encourage it. Apropos of nothing, ASC this year is back to a two-page limit for your adventure sites...

I review an itch adventure once a week, usually to hilariously terrible results. There've been several decent-to-usable hits I've found lately, I'll put them up in these replies.
