I that's a fair point. I was thinking of convention games. Not that I've killed off anyone in my ongoing games except for the one occasion when the player asked for it, literally, because she wanted a new character. I think I've described that here previously.I'd be loath to kill off one character in a convention game simply because what's the player going to do for the rest of the session.Well, Steve (Ellis) in his have a go at assassinating the Emperor game for example, makes it clear it is not acceptable for player on player killing until the last hour - for just that reason.When I've felt unwell, I've occasionally thought about asking the referee to kill me so I could retire - and so he could 'encourage' the others!I'd happily kill the lot of them to wrap up the game.LOL! Maybe I should try it once. Just to see the looks!Regular group games are a different mater entirely.Thanks for the TravCon write-up and great to see you there.Thank you and good to see you too. I'm sorry I couldn't play in your game.tc----- The Traveller Mailing List Archives at http://archives.simplelists.com/tml Report problems to xxxxxx@simplelists.com To unsubscribe from this list please go to http://www.simplelists.com/confirm.php?u= gi277fSUTkyFeQYIkUkn6zf5f3dXCa 4l
