Munchkin PowerGamers MinMaxers RulesLawyers...

David J Prokopetz escribió:To hear certain segments of the "role-playing, not roll-playing!" crowd define it:

Min-maxer: A player who understands how the game's rules operate.

Munchkin: A player who favours the style of play that the game's rules encourage and facilitate, as opposed to the style of play that the game's self-promotional text claims the rules encourage and facilitate.

Power-gamer: A player who wishes for his or her character to be competent.

Turtlewing escribió:Min-Maxer: somone who takes specialization to far. for exampel the sniper who can hit a catapiller between the real eyes from several miles away, but can't tie his own shoes, and the bard who can talk you into killing your own mother but can't remember which end of his rapier is the handle, were most likley created by a min-maxer

Munchkin: 1) a midget who may or may not represent the lollypop guild. 2) a min-maxer who will attempt to trade in game attrabutes the rules say they can't trade for a bonus to their charcter's specialty. For exampel a d20 player who tries to trade his skill points for a +2 to attack rolls.

Power Gamer: anyone with strong system mastery who focuses more on optimizing their charcter than on describing their charcter with the rules. (this play style is assumed by some games like D&D 4th ed)


Power Gamers are only bad if they're enough better at optimization than the rest of the party to cause group dynamlic issues. the other two will tend to cause problems under most circumstances (munchkins in particular are just annoying), though if your group is made up mostly of min-maxers you can probably still run a fun game you'll just have to take into account their very extreme strengths and weeknesses and plan acordingly.

Migo escribió:What about the max-minner, ant-munchkin and reverse-power gamer? The players who intentionally create weak characters to drag everyone else down and make themselves the centre of attention by being a "good role player". Often goes with someone who says they "role play and don't roll play".
