Quote from: Kellri;843946I take that kind of stupidity as a test. The players are testing me to see if I'm a pushover in much the same way my kids and my students test me to see what they can get away with. If you cave in and let them have their way "in the interests of the game", you've lost all respect. If you stamp it out, in this case with a TPK, you've drawn the line and either they'll leave or learn to respect your game. If they leave, you've still come out on top because you really don't want to be the only pussy in a room full of dicks.

Quote from: Ravenswing;844567Hrm.  I can think of a number of instances as a GM where a single player has been eaten by the stupid, but I can't think of any instance where an entire party abandoned all common sense.

I must be lucky.
