61. 60 is a forbidden Number. 60 is a forbidden number. 60 is a forbidden number.
62. I will not do everything some mysterious voice from some isolated host tells me. 62a. Even if it promises me candy. 62b. Or power unimaginable. 62c. Or the return of my lost loved one. 62d. Especially if the voice demands the backstabbing of my teammates. 63. Not allowed to insert loopholes in the Not-Allowed List. |

69. I am not a 'Player In a Management Position'
69a. Not even if I work at an 'Adult' club 69b. The stripper PC who works at the club is not one of my'hoez' 69c. Even if I bribed the GM to let me take "ma' bitchz an' hoez" as a group contact 69d. I am not allowed to implant a taser, stun baton, or any other such device in my gun to make women "cream so hard 'dat 'day pass out" 70. I can not have a used Cadallac Deville 70a. If I somehow manage to get one, I can not paint it powder pink with 30" gold spinners and hydraulics 70b. A powder dispenser is not an acceptable 'Pimped' option 71. I can not install six Nitrous mods into my motorcycle 71a. Even if I do, it will not accelerate so fast that time goes backwards 72. I am not a leprechaun, people are not after my pot of gold or lucky charms, and my penis is not 'magically delicious' |

81. Don't (attempt to) make deals with bug spirits. That's naughty.
82a. HMG and gyroscope is not apt. attire for a low profile meeting. 82b. The same applies to MMG's and LMG's, even if you left the gyro at home. |

These are great! Been pondering starting a "Things Mr Welch is no longer allowed to do..." type thread for a while, glad to see someone did! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
83. I am not allowed to take a metagenic trait for my Vampire that gives him immunity to sunlight and makes him sparkle. Ever. 84. I am not allowed to reintroduce variable staging into my game. My players threatend to lynch me. 85. I am not allowed to place a bumper sticker on the back of my GMC Bulldog that reads "If this van's Renrakkin', don't come a-knockin'" 86. I am not allowed to take a severe allergy to Mr. Johnsons. 87. I am not allowed to make anymore wolverine clones. Or any X-men clones. Or any Superhero clones. Period. 88. I am no longer allowed to take gear out of the Hungarian, French, or German Language sourcebooks. My GM finally started using Babelfish to double check my gear. 89. "Because they said I could on DUmpshock!" is no longer a valid rules argument. 90. I am not allowed to play a Ghoul with a severe allergy to red meat. 91. The rules for PC Dragons were really an April Fools joke. Now stop asking to play one! |

83. I am not allowed to teach ghouls how to do the thriller dance. It doesn't make them any more socailly accepted.
84. I am not allowed to start hobo fighting rings. 85. Even if I was allowed to start a hobo fighting ring ham sandwiches are not a proper reward. 86. None of my characters can take skill levels in chemistry, industrial engineering, demolitions, ir leadership. 87. I am not allowed try to convince anyone to stick it to the man. 88. Especially if I am vague of what it is. 89. But it worked in Fight Club or any other movie is not a good reason to do something in game. 90. I am not a golden god. |

I'm actually thinking about stealing this for an article for the first issue of the Magazine we're doing (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) If anyone doesn't want their contribution published, please PM me (Don't reply here, we don't want to clutter up the thread).

96. Even if the rules say that 50 Kg of explosives has a blast radius measured in miles doesn't mean I can buy that much.
97. Even if the rules say so, I am not allowed to take Astral Hazing and get a lifestyle within a few blocks of a megacorp just so we can raid them and not worry about magical defenses. 98. Rodrigo is no longer allowed to cast Stun Ball by doing a hip thrust. 99. Even if I took Distinctive Style and a Geass for somatic casting. 100. "How many will fit?" is not the proper answer to "How many missiles do you store in your van?" when a grenade goes off. |

136 I am not allowed to take a "Knowledge: Everything" skill.
137 Even if my character is Mr. Universe. 138 I may not create a character based on Mr. Universe ever again. 139 Especially if he becomes a Technomancer 140 I am not allowed to take "Incompetent: Areospace" ever again.
