D&D 30 Day Challenge, Day 30 (a day late and a gold piece short, as usual!)

Day 30 - Best DM You've Had

     Usually in my groups I am the DM; it is rare that I have had the chance to play. And I'm OK with that; I much prefer running the games to playing them, on the whole. I think the best DM I ever played with was Bob Bitgood. The man was a hard-ass; he used to say, "If you guys played with me, all your characters would die!" and we laughed it off, saying, "Yeah, that sounds like fun!" and "Great incentive!", or "Walk into the dungeon and the roof collapses, all die!" Yeah. Then we played. He ran us through Tomb of Horrors with an "all-star" team of our best AD&D 2nd Edition Characters. It was a blast; only a handful of characters made it out alive. In fact, the first dungeon we entered did collapse and nearly kill everyone - WHO'S LAUGHING NOW?!?!? We were. We could not stop laughing. It was an awesome time. I don't talk to Bob much anymore, but wherever you are sir, I salute you!
