Allrighty, the thing is, I know a guy who thinks he's a great dm, but doesn't know shit about the rules (sure, he's a great storyteller, but he just thinks he gets "d&d" if he knows that making a check requires a d20, and even then he makes up condition check with all sorts of dice).
He thinks I'm the cheesiest thing ever, eventhough I decided to hold back most of the things he wouldn't understand anyway. When that still didn't work out, I decided that when I play again in the near future, I'd like to fuck as many things up as possible, hence me trying to figure out this stuff.
