Further Explanation

This text originally appeared at the start of the post. I move it to deflect accusations of self pity.

I'm not a very good person. You might have heard people say that before as an excuse for the shitty thing(s) they're about to do. 

I'm not saying it for that reason. I'm saying it because I'm trying to be better.

One way in which we grow and improve is to listen to others: if I were to give DM advice, I'm sorry to say it would veer between the glaringly obvious ("Don't get drunk while running games") and the oddly specific ("If you're drinking port and brandy, make sure you have a recorder to listen back to later, and ask permission BEFORE you start recording, not halfway through").

Luckily I'm good at stealing other people's ideas and putting them together in an easily digestible format (this rumour is partially true). So when Phlox's post of 15 more cheap tricks to liven up your game (following up an earlier post of ten similarly cheap tricks) was followed by posts from SahhCosmic OrrerySunderedWorldDM and Eldritch Fields I knew I had to find my way on to the bandwagon.
