Folks, A friend of wanted me GM to get his gf into roleplaying, and one of the first things out of his mouth was:

>you shouldn't use anything other than D&D because it'll just make her confused when she joins B's campaign after summer and has to learn new rules

I hated it. It made me feel like a stepping stone so he could show his Gf the 'glory of rping' or some dumb shit like that and all I am is some robot to fill his RP gap while B is back on the east coast over the summer.

Tl;dr what would you do if you were asked to GM a system you didn't like for a game style that didn't interest you?
>>
>>53960856
You could say no
>>
>>53960856
>Tl;dr
I'd just say you're really not feeling up to running a campaign in [system] right now.

Alternatively, assuming they want 5e, I run AD&D.

Tell him to run a game for his own damn GF and stop being such a beta.

Talk to him about it. If he's your friend you should be able to.

Say no but seeing as you are probably a complete softcock and will cave like a bitch then I am sorry for your lots.

what

Why would you start with DnD when it comes to pen and paper rpgs

Theres tons of easier systems out there

Run what he wants but fuck with him on every step. You have to constantly undermine his authority, call him out on every stupid bullshit and turn his every decision against him.

Wayne is a good dude and offers good advice. As a female I would be incredibly aroused by such a manly display and would be begging to take you deep inside of my moist willing body.

No thanks

XDDDD

I understand, a man like you would obviously have women and fembois to service him already. Just know that if you ever want a 10/10 Asian girl who loves to give blowjobs that I will save myself for you from this day forward.

Sorry, only Wayne gets to see my oiled up dripping wet body.

>There sure are a lot of girlfriends cheating on their boyfriends in your game anon haha is d&d slways like this?
>>
>>53960856
This is what it means to be a cuck. Have someone fuck a girl while you have to deal with the shit he don't want to. It's not like you're gonna say no to be his bitch's bitch.
>>
>>53961792
Why so cliche when anon can just flat out say that his firend asked him to GM D&D because his GF is too retarded to get into any other system?
>>
>>53960856
>To confusing to learn another system so dont run anything other then d&d
i swear to fuck she better have d&d mastered down to the god dam amount of pounds of food a horse has to eat every day or else she has no excuse
you should run d&d for her and if at any point she says "oh what does that do" or "so how do i do that" just walk out of the room
>>
>>53960856
I'd tell them to fuck off. If I'm the GM, that means I choose the game. Don't like it, GM yourself.
>>
>>53961575
He namefags for no reason, and is therefore not worth listening by default. Fuck off to reddit.

He is the savior of this board, and a good man.

If this dude is really your friend, have a chat with him about it, but more importantly talk to them both.

Try to find out what kind of game they both want to play, if you all are serious about showing her how fun gaming can be then you should at least ask her.

If it really is fantasy, tell them that you aren't really comfortable running D&D and suggest some alternatives, if they continue to say no just say sorry, you aren't really interested but you wish them both the best.

Ya know, like a normie or some shit.

You seem to be lost. Reddit is that way ->

The thing is how does her boyfriend know she likes DnD

Is he retarded and thinks DnD is a beginner system?

Does he only know DnD?
Why does he think he's above the GM in the pecking order?

Tell him to sit the fuck down and talk about it yo
>>
Time to wear a skirt and let your friend fuck your faggot ass at the same time as he ploughs his girlfriend's, OP, you unbelievable cuck.
>>
>>53960856
>Tl;dr what would you do if you were asked to GM a system you didn't like for a game style that didn't interest you?
No. You shouldn't feel obligated to put in a lot of work for something you're not interested in. Not only that, but chances are that the quality of your campaign would suffer. I mean, would rather be in a game that the GM liked, or one he disliked?

Just say no. Run a rules-light game that interests you if you don't want to bog his GF down with rules that might tangle her up in the future.
>>
>>53960856
>Tl;dr what would you do if you were asked to GM a system you didn't like for a game style that didn't interest you?

Say no.
>>
>>53961872
We should honestly thank him. He really puts the faggot in name fag.

Without him new fags might think namefagging was cool.
>>
>>53964944
By embracing anonymity, /tg/ is built to avoid social drama and cliques and celebrity and shit. Namefagging without good reason undermines this and is therefore obnoxious. Please consider not being an attention whore.
>>
>>53960856
>what would you do if you were asked to GM a system you didn't like for a game style that didn't interest you?

>No

>Fuck off

>No but I can run X system in X setting

>Yes but you need to pay me for the service.

Nothing kills a game faster than a GM not invested which is why all the advice that says you should build a campaign around what the players want is well meaning but ultimately flawed unless the GM and the players have incredibly similar tastes.

cuck him with GURPS, have multi-dimensional hi-tech space adventures with her, slowly woo her, then cuck her by fucking him
>>
>>53960856
If she's only able to learn one ruleset, you haven't "got her into RPing" in the first place.

Besides, if his confidence in his own girlfriend's intelligence is so low, why the hell not start her on something simple like Fate or Savage Worlds?
>>
>>53961462
Fuck you, ham is the nectar of the gods
>>
>>53964944
That's been your reason for awhile, Wayne. Get a new one.
>>
Holy shit, did wayne get banned or was did the janitors just delete his posts for shits?
>>
>>53965747
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Pull the other one, it's got Bells on it. I promise you, namefagging is the least of our worries where social drama is concerned. I know what I do. I've been around since the old days, and trust me, it's anonymous majorities of the current age that are doing far more to damage the board than I ever could.

Oh, wait, no... that's my meme, right? I namefag and take credit for the board's biggest mistakes, right? Because one poster absolutely must be responsible for everything wrong with /tg/, while everyone else only serves to make the board a better place. How very... Socratic.

>>53969321
Nope. Still here.
>>
>>53960856
Is she going to play in both groups or will she just drop out of your game when the other guy starts up?
>>
>>53970329
Everyone is going to drop out once the second guy shows up. I am literally DMing for just the summer.
>>
>>53970351
I stand by my Bonobo statement:

>Challenge him to a bareskin wrestling fuckmatch where you compete to fuck each other in the ass. This can either be done to relieve stress in both of you or to compete to see who's the better mate for his GF.

>His GF will also be fucking another potential female mate so they both have a strong female scent to attract the strongest male.

>Once you've established a Pecking(pecker?) Order, display your sexual prowess to the females and see who decides is the better mate.

>This is what Bonobos do in the wild, and right now it seems to be a lot smarter than what you're doing BY NOT GROWING A PAIR AND SPEAKING YOUR MIND TO YOUR PEERS AND FRIENDS.

>Seriously, if you want to stay the bottom bonobo with the inferior/no mate that's fine. As for the rest of us we're gonna fuck is some boipussy and prove we deserve to get our dicks wet.
>>
>>53961437
Brand recognition. Also, as far as mainstream RPG books go, they have the best editing which makes the learning process a whole lot easier. I'd also like to make the argument that having a list of codified actions helps with the youngsters of the age who have played some sort of rpg on the pc/console growing it. Helps them relate better. This is of course anecdotal, so take it with a grain of salt.

Real talk here. Is she your friend? If not, this is a total dick move by your friend, and the only appropriate response is to completely and utterly undermine his worthless bitch ass.

If she is your friend, find out what kind of games interest her, and tailor the game to suit her interests. If not, run a system you like for a game style that interests you.

The only way anyone gets 'the glory of rping' is if they are into that style of game. So, run the game that is a style you are into. Do pokemon in space if that's your thing. Run a medieval political game using Dread, if you want. Hell, break out Mount and Blade to run Spelljammer.

Just, don't make rpgs a chore. It'll suck for everyone involved.
>>
>>53960856
Use Pathfinder and always refer to it as D&D.
>>
>>53962005
> what is reading comprehension

OP is just a temporary GM they can use while the DM boyfriend likes is away. That other guy runs DnD only
>>
>>53970289
You don't need to be the one true boogeyman to be a total faggot dude. Calm down
>>
>>53960856
Just don't run the game. Easy.
>>
>>53960856

Run Lamentations of the Flame Princess.

Run Tower of the Stargazer if you want her to play again.

Run Doom Cave of the Crystal-Headed Children if you don't care either way.

Both are in the Treasure Trove in the OSR thread.
>>
>>53965777

Dear gods Tzeentch. Calm down.
>>
>>53971915

Now that Slaanesh is dead I gotta take over all the lewd shit that doesn't involve diseases, pregnancies or violent hate fucking.
>>
>>53971186
Calling what I do faggotry is like calling the Mona Lisa just a pretty picture.

Though let's be honest here, most of the time, if I'm in a thread and I'm insulting someone, it usually means the thread has already gone to Shit. I'm just here to make others abandon thread or derail it until it becomes something interesting.

Bottom line here, OP needs to grow a pair, get himself a spinal implant, and get over himself and his hurt tendies, and just say no. Anything else beyond that is pointless rhetoric trying to convince someone of something they're probably not going to do until they have no other choice.

>what would you do if you were asked to GM a system you didn't like for a game style that didn't interest you?
Tell them I don't want to run a game in a system I don't like and in a style that doesn't interest me.
/wbg/ died for this.
