You realize then that with this new deffinition, someone can only be a
munchkin in the context of game?

I Believe that a player who attempts to roleplay is not a munchkin
(Saying that the chracter is "just that way" is a cheap cop out and
shouldn't cut it) ... I have a Greek character, but I don't know how to
do a Greek accent so I do a Russian accent when I speak for him ... (btw,
atm, I only have 2 chars fluent in English :) ...If I learn how to do a
Greek accent I'll switch to using a Greek accent (and then say the
character is Russian ;)
