The Social Contract
from SideQuests! · host Epic Table Games
Contact the Paladins of PodcastHow do you get your table to sit down, shut up, and pay attention to the game? How do you get them to participate? How do you get them to show up on time? Well, you simply make them sign a binding contract that states if they don't do these things there will be full fiery retribution filled with hate and brimstone. Okay, not really. But we do talk about what has become known as "The Social Contract," which helps state expectations of the players, the Dungeon Master, and sets the baseline for table behavior and etiquette. This was the first time Paladin of Podcast Rob has really taken the time to talk about one to his party very specifically, and it's now even available as a freebie at EpicTableGames.com. Paladins Craig and Eli both are interested to hear more about Rob's presentation being his first time, and we talk about the whole idea of using one and how much translates between in person games and online games.Grab the freebie at the EpicTableGames.com shop.
