I wonder how much circulation our D&D books get at the library. I should check! Running a gaming group might be a good idea. Thanks for these posts. I just put Smarter Than You Think on hold, too.

RE: Characters: What keeps you?posted in Mildly Constructive
People. My most 'successful' characters have been the ones that others have been interested in/intrigued by/found funny.

Finished Smarter Then You Think! I quite liked it, thank you for mentioning it. It put into words a lot of things I have thought about technology and communication.
I never used to read non-fiction before I started working in the library. Our website supports lists, and I am adding this to my Non-Boring Non-Fiction list. Gracias!

RE: PC antagonism done rightposted in Mildly Constructive
My ideas for playing engaging antagonists boil down to three things, essentially:
- Cultivate a good OOC attitude. Be nice. Be friendly.
- Be willing to poke fun at your antagonist.
- Don't shit where you eat.
I managed to do it once, and it was really really fun and I'm not sure I could ever have the right conditions ever again. I really appreciated how other players supported me by playing up 'don't mess with that guy'.
I hope it was entertaining for others as well. I think it was? Anyway, I couldn't have done it without the support of other players.
