As for being Capitan TPK, I like to think you run campaigns with classic boss battles ala Legend of Zelda and the Metroid series. Battles that frustrate and flummox but keep us coming back. Plus I love the mulligan option you throw it to keep us happy, sort of like going back to a saved game. :-D Roleplaying Tips is excellent, I currently subscribe to the email but am eying the RSS feeds as it is a little more to my pace of reading.

I've fallen out of practice reading them recently, but he has quite an archieve of good articles and reader input. I've given up on GMing. I love the world creation aspects, but I've acquired the nickname "TPK [Silas]" due to my inability to balance encounter level vs. player impulsiveness.
