minor point, I used "minmax"(no "er") in reference to a guide/video explaining how to do it not a player. watching a video or reading a guide that tells someone how to minmax their PC with an OP/Broken build does not make someone a minmaxer. That tiny investment of time is not capable of granting the munchkin with a shallow understanding of the rules the knowledge to quickly analyze the math of everything & be ready with a rapid fire machine gun rollout of action(s) when their turn comes around.Perhaps. I just generally find that most people understand how to "play nice with others" when joining a group of people to do a communal activity.
I was responding to YOUR use of "minmaxers" implying that there would be a problem once they watched the inevitable munchkin-videos. I understand the difference. Also - I don't think I was "throwing shade" (much) in that - again - I think that most of them can "play nice with others" and therefore won't be a problem.
While I agree with your use of "Munchkin" to differentiate, I'm not sure that either of us can assume that any given term has universal meaning that will be understood by everyone reading our posts.
