I used to be guilty of -8-, -46-, and -50-, and then I started to help our old DM with dev and paid my dues... lol.. I still have a problem with being -8- and -50- every now and again... [darned] NG bards.... Although my race did vary... Human Elf Gnome... and each was a bit different.

As DM I had trouble with 1,2,8,12,31,32,&47... and what's worse... is that most of those were the same player (2,8,12,31,32=1 player, 1,22,32,47= Another player::Necron Denomic-necromanic Assassin/Mage turned Dark Warrior/Mage, and Seorith the ditzy barbarian who fell into the hole... respectively)

I'll admit. I'm -46-, among others I'm sure. I really should play a rogue.

Back on topic:

52) The Walking Library
He has read, and memorized the contents of, every single WizO-published sourcebook ever written, as well as several well-known and not-so-well-known 3rd party books. No matter what you throw at him, he knows what it is and what it can do. No manner of feats, spells, or class levels can change this. Many have a bad habit of metagaming, though some intentionally take many ranks in Knowledge so their characters might actually know that kind of information. Makes for a disgustingly effective Ranger.

53) "Oh, wait there was more there...."
Reads the rule part way through, and just assumes the rest. Everything he does follows the rules as he read them, not what's actually printed. Especially annoying, not in players, but in the DM.

54) The Specialist: This odd player is the one who completely focuses all his time and character building around one aspect, skill, special ability/feat, spell or other such nonsense. (For an example of this see the 8-bit theatre epsiode where Red Mage talks about the skill "Pick Pocket")

55) The Religeous Fanatic: An annoying player who plays a paladin consistently smiting evil while pretentiously yelling "God Wills It". This would not be so bad if the character did so intelligently. This form of annoyance is brought up by the fact that the player doesn't put forth any intelligent decision but blindly hacks away at anything he consideres evil.

56)The Hit-and-runner: This is a character, usually a rogue. Who consistenly applies a hit and run tactic to every battle or special ability use. Most notably for its use in the Hide/Move Silently/Sneak Attack combination. Whereas the character will H/MS up to a target, SA, and then run away only the H/MS again in order to SA multiple times.

57) "It won't work. Please stop trying." No matter how many times the plan fails, he just keeps at it. That level of persistence might be inspiring, if what he was trying to do wasn't so bloody stupid. No matter how many times it fails, the halfling keeps trying to wrestle people, or something equally stupid.

58) The Paralyzed Planner
Players who over-analyze the potential outcomes and concerns around every decision beyond basic no-brainers. This over-analysis leads to complete game paralysis as the player(s) cannot decide between two or more equally good/bad courses of action, sometimes wasting an hour or more for large decisions.

59) Chaotic Neutral Justifies EVERYTHING
Players who write 'Chaotic Neutral' on a character sheet but act neutral evil or chaotic evil, and try to write off every evil act as a 'spur of the moment chaotic neutral' act. And then they grow upset that the DM isn't buying their argument that chaotic neutral allows anything.

59) The lonly victem.
Closely related to 22) Improbability Generators, the only time this guy EVER rolled a 20 was when he was reaching for the d12 for his barbarian's hit die, which incedentaly came up a 1.
His luck is so bad, It's inspiring. His half orc barbarian gets out drank by a goblin, pinned by a kobold, is the only one NOT to wake up when ambushed at night, and we're still trying to figure out how his leg got caught in a connon on a sinking ship. If i need an idea for a new villan, i just put him in town and see who he pisses off.

Side note, in a modern warfar game, he grabed a body to use as a meat shield and accidently pulled a granade of the body as it droped and he got exposed to 2 guys with machine guns.

[Holy Deg]

I can't believe this one isn't here.

60) The Uber-Cheese. This player spends months developing a character, meeting with the DM multiple times to hash it out. No time is spent on back-story. (S)He reads through every source (s)he can find looking for just the right combination of feats/character classes/races to ensure that (s)he is as powerful as possible. The Uber-Cheese is always #5 The Min/Maxer, and is made worse when (s)he is also #12 The High Roller (imagine when he rolls his stats and doesn't roll anything less than a 15, even when he is rolling 3d6 instead of 4d6 drop lowest).

61) The Bubblegum Chewer: Thinks that if the DM presents it into the campaign that they can take it, and have to take it on or they get mad that they didnt have the chance to try to kill it, cause they totally could have.

62) Polar Opposite: Everyone in your party chooses good alignments and just that one PC has to be evil, he HAS to be because it wont reflect his character perfectly if it isnt, or vice verse.

63) Thinking Man: Beats to death a past plot and insists that it has something to do with the current one even if its not in the same campaign.

64) The Out-of-Gamer: "Out of game. Do you think I should do that?" "Out of game. What if I hit him?" I'm the DM don't ask me that ask your other PC friends. "Out of game. Does that mean what I think it does?"

oh and I'm guilty of 49, a lot... yeah...
