Boot party manifesto: Redux

[erdedrache]

(Mostly) cross-posted to the Indy list, since most of my friends can relate to the pain of running a combat involving a 15-person boot party. And because sending it to the list didn't quite get the rant-y venting out of my system. (Also edited slightly, since I found some typos and decided to re-word some things from the original email.)

You win at common sense.

Very nicely written.

Someday I want to come back as De to be the one to send people out. "Here, do this, this and this. I'm going to sit and read and NOT get involved...unless you need my help figuring it out."

You could add a health level to an NPC for each additional person in a PC boot party over 5. And put it in the house rules so everybody knows. :p

Thank you for writing this out! It helps explain things and hopefully other people will catch on.

I thought your header read "Booty Party."

I was disappointed. ;)

Really, if you bring more than 5-6 people to a booty party, it makes everything really long and cumbersome - and people get bored easily, too.
