I always think I know what I want from the dispensary & then I start looking at the menu, quickly become a “strain queen” and lose all sense of my OG game plans

10/ FINAL WORD on GAMEMASTERING
You can read books. You can watch videos. You can attend workshops. But none of that makes you a Gamemaster.
Embrace the game. Make mistakes. Encourage dynamic play.
The university is in your living room.
Have fun storming the castle!

9/ VILLAINS
A villain is not just an enemy. They believe they’re right. The best villains pursue a goal that makes sense to them, even if the players must stop them.
Let them plan.
Let them adapt.
Let them win sometimes.
A dynamic villain makes the world dangerous and interesting.

8/ Non-Player Characters
NPCs are not props.
They are people in the world with needs, fears, loyalties, and ambitions. Even the shopkeeper has a story.
Give them a goal, a problem, a voice. Make the characters care.
Players remember characters longer than they remember maps.

7/ THE WORLD LIVES
The world doesn’t pause when the players leave the room.
Villains plan.
Kingdoms shift.
Enemies adapt.
Ecosystems evolve.
Empires fall.
Interregnum is dynamic.
When the players return, the world kept moving without them. That’s when the game starts to feel real.

6/ CONSEQUENCES
Player choices matter.
If nothing changes because of what the players do, the game becomes theater with dice.
Let victories matter.
Let mistakes matter.
Consequences are how the world tells the players their actions have weight.
Let hard choices stand and grow.

5/ FAIL FORWARD
Sometimes the dice say no.
Good GMs don’t stop the story when players fail. Failure should move the story forward, just in a different direction.
Missed the lock? Now the guards arrive.
Failed the ritual? Something else answers.
Failure is portal to adventure.

4/ GM SECRET: A MOMENT OF AWESOME
Gaming is collective storytelling. Players are looking for opportunities to showcase their gifts, take center stage, and become instrumental to the tale.
They don’t have to die.
They just have to shine.

4/ Derek Hawkins adds a good one.
Good GMs understand story.
You don’t need to be a novelist, but you should understand pacing, tension, rising stakes, and consequences.
Players remember moments. Each is seeking their “moment of awesome.”
Your job is to help those moments happen.

3/ Here are my suggestions for becoming a good GM:
• Know the genre — manage expectations before you begin.
• Read the rules — they are not always hard and fast.
• Be ready to interpret them — you are the final arbiter.
• Master character creation — characters are the core elements.

1/ “Dungeon Master University?” Are you kidding me?
Paying $1,000 to learn how to be a GM?
I don't see an expensive weekend making you a GM. You learn to run games by bleeding behind the judge's screen.
Run your session, take your licks, and come back next week better prepared.
