What is an RPG?

Might be a stupid question, but you'll be suprised by the number of people, who don't know what an RPG is and how it works.

First let's explain the name RPG: RPG is an abbreviation, which means Role Playing Game.
A Role Playing Game can be considered as a story, written by several authors. Every 'author' has an own character (or maybe more), with which he plays the Role Playing Game. The autor will write (type) down, what his character does, says, thinks, etc. but he can NOT do this with characters from other authors.

NOTE: There's existing another 'form' of RPG-ing, which is much more like a game. You don't write down things about you character, but you play with it as if in games like Oblivion, and stuff like that. These RPG's unfortunately can't be found on this site. Obviously, this 'game-form' of RPG-ing is much more limited.

Annnnnnn, Lars, An RPG. Alphabeto and all! XP

Other than that: great manual! Thumsb up for you! Now if only you'd study your history and had known the guy's (LOL UNINTENDED PUN) name was Guy Fawkes, you'd totally win completely, or almost at least.

I knew it's pronounce as aN RPG( that's only logical). I didn't know you should also write an instead of a though.

And of cource I win (almost)!

no, You utmostly fail

Know what... you can do both... win and lose... see now your a wizard.

It's sooo tempting to delete these negative posts now..

You write 'a' or 'an' based on pronounciation/phonetics. The letter 'r' is pronounced 'ar' (to stick with English phonetics), and therefore preceded by 'an' in stead of 'a'. Were it, eg, a 'b' (bee) or 'c' (cee), it'd be preceded by 'a' because it starts with a consonant in the pronounciation. But I guess you get my point by now ^^V

Also: you shall not be anywhere near winning as long as you keep writing 'of course' like that XP Just saying~
