While I was making breakfast this morning, I was asking myself what, as a game master, I want from a gaming group. It comes down to five points, all of which are variations on “proactive players.” Nothing in gaming gets me going quite like inventing NPCs and folklore and history on the fly. On the other hand, nothing slows me down quite so much as a table full of people sitting quietly, waiting for me to bring the fun ; worse, a table full of people sitting quietly on Facebook or IM or playing Minecraft or anything but focusing on the game we’re playing.
