hay! i'm old school D&D and have NEVER been a powre gamer. as with nature, 
there are all types. i'm a Role not Roll person (which really annoys our 
Hackmaster group-watch a role person win out the battle of EXP). and you are 
correct about hackmaster, it is a wonderful spoof on AD&D (sorto like "mel 
brooks: dungeons & dragons"). rock and roll. great fun..

just dont' let his monty python quest force new rules into your game. 
problem with power gamers is when they find a rules problem, they tend to 
find a solution that will cause maximum chaos with mininum game balance and 
then force it to be incorporated into existing campaign. this has all the 
makings of a Wile E Coyote plan.
