On the general subject: Sometimes it's genuine curiousity and/or some weird impulse of the player(s). But sometimes, as you acknowledge, it's a common streak of perverse (no, not that way) glee and amusement to force the game master to do even more work, to improvise, and/or to see if they can "beat" the GM's ability to do so. If they can derail the GM's plans, go far enough off the map, and/or force the GM to call a break to come up with something, they've scored a point in the meta game. "I stumped you. I thought of something you didn't, went somewhere you didn't anticipate. That makes me more clever than you." -- --------------- Kelly St. Clair xxxxxx@efn.org
