Silly Message Board GamesA forum for any kind of quote games, continuing story games, "What would you do if?" games, or whatever anyone comes up with. Old threads will now expire after one month.
2906: I may not create a character with called armor in a primary color who punches his enemies with his fists.
2906: I may not create a character with an animal companion/mount/cohort of at least huge size and call that critter any name ending in "-zord".
2907: I may not have said critter combine with four others to form a mega-critter.
2908: I may not play a floating head in a jar who uses leadership shenanigans to gain five cohorts who all are teenagers.
2909: I may not create a construct Whose name is Alpha. If that one is destroyed, I am not allowed to recreate it and just tack on a roman numeral. I am especially not allowed to repeat this process five times.
2910: I am not allowed to shout "make my monster grow!" before casting enlarge person, giant vermin, or animal growth.
l2893: If the character can be recognized by an outsider as belonging to any pantheon, I should probably rework my character sheet.
Do the X-Men count as a pantheon? What about the Avengers?
Quote:
2894: Positioning myself east of a castle and programming a Stationary Rod to remain stationary compared to where the earth was will not result in the speed of the planet's rotation to smash the castle against the rod.
2894a. Alternatively, it will result in a neat little hole the shape of the rod appearing in the castle wall.
Seriously, if a small gas tank (like a welding tank) can propel itself hard enough to leave a neat little hole in a wall of cinderblocks (from Mythbusters), something going many many times faster shouldn't have a problem.
2911. My Slayer cannot be based off Kamina, Augus, Asura, and King Bumi.
2911a. This extends to all my characters.
2912: I cannot take "Improved Tsundere" as a fighter bonus feat.
2913: Speech bubbles are not deadly weapons.
2914: Dwarven rangers do not automatically have elephants as their favoured enemy.

2915: I cannot suggest that the party and the BBEG just simply solve their problems by sitting in a circle and singing Kumbaya.
2916: I cannot go super-saiyan, no matter how hard or long my character screams.
2917: I cannot be a zombie, vampire, werewolf, lich, pony all at the same time.
2918: I cannot take joy in attempting to make every little spell OP by giving partially logical reasons why it would be.
2919: I cannot become the new BBEG and hold the world hostage for $100 Billion worth of gold coins.

Oh. My. God.
I actually JUST finished watching the original Mighty Morphing Power Rangers Movie form 1995. God, I can remember why the original was such a hit now, SOOOO many fond early child hood memories brought back!
You know what, I'm totally breaking some of those rules in a game and soon!
2921. My Synthesist Summoner cannot have ten eidolons.
2921a. And no, they can't all be stored in a magic item that looks like a wristwatch.
2921b. And his last name (and in some cases, middle name/middle name initial) can't lend itself as a pun when compared to his age.
2923: Not allowed to use body percussion to perform if I forgot my drum in my other pair of pants.
2923a: Not allowed to spend a half-hour debating with the DM over why body percussion is a legitimate performance method.
2923b: Not allowed to use a list of expected proficiencies of the average professional dancer and percussionist to prove my point.
2923c: Not allowed to find relevant historical evidence to prove it was the same in misdeal times (it is a medieval setting!)
2923d: Not allowed to play a bard if you are a musician.

@V: Uh... That's a bit behind there.

2939: My sorcerer's familiar is not allowed to be the most intelligent member of the party.
2939a: Even if this happened entirely by the rules, and on its own without any planning on anyone's part.
2940: In D20 modern, when one of the party members gets 1-shotted by someone with a big gun, I am not allowed to point and laugh and say "see, THAT is why I told you to not fight without cover!" (both in and out of character).
2941: It doesn't matter if my character is a sniper and it's OK by the rules, the DM is not going to let me put a scope on my rocket launcher.
2941a: On that note, my sniper cannot specialize in rocket launchers.
2942: While explosives are often good at solving the problem immediately at hand, they have the habit of creating many more problems, especially when set off in a densely populated area.
2942a: My response to the DM telling me the above is not allowed to be "Why do you think I bought so much dynamite? I got enough to handle whatever other "problems" this city throws at me!"
2943: Maxed out stealth scores (with all possible positive situational modifiers!), a silencer, subsonic ammo, and all range-increasing feats/class features/equipment available MAY lead to the DM deciding to just carpet bomb the whole area cause that's the only way my character is ever going to get hit by anything.
2943a: If the above happens, and the DM is glad he finally hit me with something, I am not allowed to point out that I have Evasion and easily passed my reflex save.
2944: I am not allowed to (ab)use evasion in order to survive unscathed carrying out a suicide bombing. Multiple times.
2945: After all the BS I have done in the game, I am not allowed to cry when my character gets sniped in the street.
2945a: Especially if that is a tactic that I myself have used.

Seconded.
2959: For the last time, no, I may not take an Iron Golem and wear it like a suit of armor. Especially if my name is any derivitive of Anthony or Antonius. Non-compliance will result in a stark reminder of who the real war machine is.

2965. I cannot take ranks in Craft (Smart Lies), Craft (News Network), Craft (Disguise), Craft (choreographies), Craft (taunts), Craft (Mutual Benefits) just because my cha modifier is too damn low for Bluff, Gather Information, Disguise, Perform, Intimidate and Diplomacy to work.
