Title: Iron GM
Post by: wylie on <01-16-12/0126:54>

Sponsered by DriveThruRPG, Iron GM tounry pitted 4 gms against each other with different plot twists, NPCs, and minis

I'll post more later, but Shadowrun lost to BESM & DND4th by .001 points

so, if a con has this tourny, try it out either as GMor player

this was the setup:
a map for minis
a mini or minis ( I got 4 orks, another GM got a dragon)
a plot
a NPC

I got one hour to put these elements together to make a mission

How are points measured? In Total Party Kills? In ragequits?


Do they measure in Love?

or how well I made a sweater?   :)

questions were along the lines of how well did I include the minis & map (ie work in), how close I followed the plot twist, and role played the NPC
not sure about the other GMs, but I had 5 elements that needed to be worked in and was graded on

also things like how fun, rules knowledge, overall impression

once the game was over, the judge & the players picked over the 4 parts of the contest very throughly

Iron GM sounds kinda ominous though.

Maybe it's just because I think "Iron" Joe Stalin before I think Iron Chef...
