To add to Mikey's point, I pose this question: Does playing Jenga during a dread game ruin the immersion? What if the tower your using is a collectors edition like the Hello Kitty, Transformers, Tarzan, Nightmare before Christmas, or Donkey Kong versions? Hell what about the truth or dare edition which has Questions or Dare printed on the blocks?

And this from the rule-eschewing, try new things hippy.

Prejudice. Actually read what I wrote and get beyond the kitten puzzle. If you can't do that, then you confirm all of my theories on why your gaming style is the way it is.

I am unfamiliar with your theories about me and I mean this with love, I don't really care.

Funny jokes about kitten puzzles are funny jokes. We rib each other on the pod cast all the time. Did Chris do wrong/bad GMing with kitty puzzle? Not at all. Will I give him shit for it? Absolutely.

Guys who do podcasts (or perform in any way shape or form) who claim not to care what people think of them are delusional, in denial, or simply lying.

Good enough for me.

I think you guys totally derailed his valid point to make a joke, though.

Giving him shit is one thing, but the group's dismissiveness of him, solely based on the "kitten puzzle" seemed to discredit the actual effectiveness of what he did, or was trying.

It's just questionable behavior for a podcast with the intention of helping people play better games. I know part of the intent is to be entertaining, and I even dig when you guys pick on Chris. It's funny. I just think that this time you did so at the expense of discrediting valid points.

And I know I typed too many words here for you to bother reading them all. No biggie.

I hate the concept behind it, the execution of it, listening to people talk (and talk, and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and fucking talk) about it. If it had a soul, I would hate it too.

No real reason... I just do.
