This is not ok

Maybe you should have learned how to properly speak before taking an oratory position.

It's not like synecdoche is a common word :(

So tired of this bullshit, literally the last session entered in a 20x20 room with two dire wolves that were, somehow, hiding behind a chair for human sized people.

>>44099560
All the more reason to look it up.

Nigga when are you gonna need to use the word synecdoche when describing a room? Your fault if you can't pronounce it and choose to use it anyway.
>>
>>44099597
disguise is a powerful skill

>>44099662
Maybe the room was a video store.

You kind of autists are the type not to get invited to games.

Correcting pronunciation is okay. Interrupting someone to fuck up their description even more, is being an autistic douche.

>>44099597

Yeah that is pretty shitty. Though sometimes DMs just fuck up their descriptions. I did so once and it led players to thinking they were trapped when they weren't, which is why I always let them ask qualititative questions like:

"is there a way for us to escape?"
"yeah you could, it'd be a bit risky, you'd be under fire, but it might be better than taking on an entire hospital of bandits"

My fault? His? I lean toward mine but since I almost always ask these kinds of questions as a player to be clear, I don't know.
>>
>>44099674
Disguise into what? there was fucking nothing but a chait the moment I opened the door, then, after I checked for traps in the first square, and entered the room, boom, two 10x10 dire wolves were behind the chair.

>implying disguising yourself as a fur coat draped over a chair isn't master disguise for a wolf

You deserve everything you got.
Rooms are not made of lines and squares, they are made of carpets and chairs. Use your imagination when analyzing your environs lest the DM punish you for your fun-deflating reductionism.

Tell him to DM a game and proceed to rip apart all the mistakes he makes.

I use what the GM gives me, I say I check for traps and he asks me which square, I chose the one in front of me.

>>44099949
>he asks me which square

I'd depose the DM at this point to be honest.

Don't use words in conversation that you don't know how to pronounce. It makes you sound pretentious and dumb.

If you can't say the word "furniture" correctly then you have more problems than rude players.
