Efficient Conversation

Intro

We're just some friends who like to talk and play games.

History of Efficient Conversation

This group of people started out on Steam around 2010, calling each other every day and slowly adding people to the call as they came online. Eventually we got smart and made a Steam group so people could join and leave as they wanted, this is where the name came from. Now we use Discord, but have kept the same iconic name.

Tabletop Games

We play Pathfinder, D&D 4e, D&D 5e, and Shadowrun.

Currently our only active campaign is a Pathfinder one, and is also our longest running campaign, starting in 2014.

Campaigns:   Razmiran

Actual Rules

1. The GM always has the final say.
• The GM sometimes knows more than you, listen to what they have to say.
• If an argument breaks out about rules, characters, etc. In the interest of time, the GM shall give the final ruling. These temporary rules last for the entire game session and will be reviewed after.
• This however, does NOT give the GM power to abuse the players.
2. Be engaged.
• No phones at the table. *insert nick tapping all the buttons on his phone here*
• Be ready for your turn.
• Be active in the game.
• Keep good notes, preferably a player diary.
• No eating pencils or falling asleep.
3. Be co-operative.
• Share the spotlight.
• Don’t be rude.
• Share the loot.
4. Be honest.
• Roll the dice after saying what you are going to do.
• Add the correct modifiers.
• If you are not sure about something, ask the GM.
• Avoid metagaming as much as possible.
5. Fun is more important than rules.
• Rules keep us organized and sane, however when rules start ruining the fun the GM should use discretion in order to make it fun again.
• Don’t shit all over the rules for a joke.
