What Was I Saying...?

If you want to hear this record from the beginning, PLEASE TURN OVER!

Do NOT play this side of the record if you want side one.

THIS is SIDE TWO!!!

...

We would like to apologize to purchasers of the Executive Version of this record for the peremptory nature of that announcement. Its brusque tone was intended solely for purchasers of the cheaper version.

The concept of "player types" (e.g., "the butt-kicker," "the tactician," "the explorer") has been around for quite some time -- Aaron Allston pioneered the concept (as far as I know) in CHAMPIONS: Strike Force (1988), and robin_d_laws made much use of it in Robin's Laws of Good Gamemastering and Dungeon Master's Guide II.

However, this post is the first time I've seen the concept applied to GM types. It's interesting stuff! I figured out how I'd categorize myself ... but I'd be curious as to how my players would categorize me.
