Author: GreatDinn

Guest Author’s Note: “There’s no feeling in the world quite like telling your players something is incredibly simple, because without fail, that task will suddenly result in the lowest average of rolls you’ve ever seen on a given day. (Obviously, a close second is ‘This will be a real challenge, and…you’ve all rolled Natural 20s.’)

Hubris, thy name is DMing. That or Lady Luck has a really peculiar sense of humor.

Any funny stories about the dice turning an easy problem into a hard one, or vice versa?

(As a random aside: when I was writing this page, I had a different punchline laid out initially, then got curious, and spent around 30 minutes searching to see if ladders ever showed up in MLP.

They do.

I had to write a different joke.)”

Transcript:

Applejack: So, uh, how do we get up there?
Pinkie Pie: Maybe if we ask it pretty please?
DM: “Ahhh, guests! Welcome. Please, do come in.”
Twilight Sparkle: Well…that was easier than expected.”
DM: You do still have to climb the ladder.
Rainbow Dash: At least it’ll make sense when I bungle this one.
DM: Oh, it’ll be fine, Dash. Even Uni could do this!
roll
DM: …
Uni: I’ve just remembered. I’m terrified of heights.
Rainbow Dash: Gee, Spike, thanks for the confidence boost.
