Page 1327 - Buzzed OffAuthor: GreatDinnGuest Author’s Note: “AJ is a hard character to write for the Alt Six, especially from the Friendship is Dragons side. The easiest sort of way to make her different is to have her…well, be someone incapable of metagaming. That’s…technically impossible (in my opinion) because of the complex nature of games, but at the very least, this AJ is the most unfamiliar with game terminology and mechanics.Another subject in this comic: phones! Phone calls in the middle of a game are the absolute worst. I’ve been fortunate enough that it only happened a few times, but because I generally keep my phone quiet, and my groups are loud, the phone calls I’ve missed have tended to end up with a lot of apologizing or a brand new game of phone tag. Fortunately, it hasn’t been anything important, but still, I don’t like having to explain that I missed giving someone the information they needed in a timely manner because I was busy convincing the Burger King that I was, in fact, a model employee and not a saboteur.Story Time Prompt: Any key moments in an RPG ruined by a phone call, or any phone calls ruined by an RPG moment?”
