		<description>Nemesis?!

On the contrary my lad! I really appreciate your website and actually I do read a lot of websites that have to do with some forms of roleplaying that are not so satisfactory to me, D&amp;D is just the most &#039;mainstreamish&#039; example.

The point that I was trying to make is that if when getting together people have different interests and those are left unvoiced that can bring problems to the game.

To be honest, I really like the crunchy bits! I love to play tactical games and wargames too. What I have problems with  is mixing a tactical game and a roleplaying game. I always get in what I call my &quot;roleplaying mentality&quot; (which has a lot to do with the things I say I like in the post above) and the crunchy bits just get in the way of my enjoyment.

Thanks for the comment, I hope to see you around!

		<description>Have I found myself a new nemesis?

I never hid that I was into roleplaying for both the narrative parts and the crunchy bitsbut mostly for the cruncy bits.  

In the last year I&#039;ve been blogging I&#039;ve discovered that some people sit at the complete opposite of my cozy place on the continuum and are looking for things that I find utterly alien.

When I discovered that they had fun doing it, I tried to understand instead of deride.  So I wasn&#039;t much of a storyteller GM, but I became a better one by exchanging with people that were.

I hope I didn&#039;t piss you off too bad :)</description>
