Player cheat, GM don't 8) That I don't roll dice to see what's happening
doesn't mean I'm not rolling dice. Au contrair, I'm roling dice all the
time to keep them wondering what is happening behind my wall of ignorance
and fear. That's starting to get a bad habbit, 'cause last time when I was
"only" a player I roll dice all the time, too. Brought my a few looks from
the other players (I could "see" them thinking).
bye,
Stefan
