424: I am not allowed to compile a Top Ten List of ways to mispronounce Utgaard-Loki while dealing with Frost Giants, even if his name does sound suspiciously like Ulki-Louie to me.
425: I am not allowed to engineer campaign situations so that I can show off a new pun I just thought of. It doesn't matter how clever it is to observe that if we all rolled Natural 1s on our Fear save for a really big avalanche, and our hair turned white from fear and shock, it would be a case of Rocks Fall Everybody Dyes.
426: If my DM's house rules say I don't get a Paladin mount, I don't get a Paladin mount. It doesn't matter how many random creatures I try to saddle and ride.

436: I will not use the Fly spell to defeat overwhelmingly powerful foes/entire armies by myself by just slowly picking at their HP from out of reach.
437: I will not "break the DM" and make him call off the session early so he can try to salvage the encounter. This is IN NO WAY related to the above. OK, maybe it is....

444. The XP penalty will be applied both to the person who makes the grievous OOC quote in game and the person whose character was set up for the sole purpose of delivering the play on words.
445. Ok, if the setup character was oblivious to the incoming pun damage, it's only half XP penalty, but you still need to pay.

446. You are not Walder Frey, Lord of the Crossing, and thus are incapable of "fielding an army out of your breeches". Your character is female, for gods' sake--
447. --Elven. Whatever.

448: I am no longer allowed to make speeches, period.
449: Self-imposed rule - I will no longer play characters with high charisma, and if I do I will specify CLEARLY that the score is from force of personality alone, and the character actually looks like ass. (Having a high charisma/comeliness/seduction score and routinely abusing it can have some.... unintended consequences when someone/something much more powerful "takes a liking" to you)
