Alrighty guys, for clarification:

[list][*]I am always willing to [b]discuss things[/b]. 
[*]I am always willing to [b]compromise[/b]. 
[*]I am always willing to [b]provide explanations[/b]. 
[*]I am always willing to [b]work out ideas[/b].
[*][b]UNLESS[/b] I have already said no. If I have said no, that is final. [/list]

In addition:

[list][*]I am a hardass when it comes to character creation.
[*]I am also a hardass when it comes to worldbuilding.
[*]However, during the actual RP, anything can happen. I challenge you to be as ridiculous as possible within the preset constraints of the characters you've created and the world we're writing in. Examples:
[list][*]If someone had their character defeat hundreds of Trollocs in a blast of the One Power, we'd know their strength level, and we'd know if drawing that much of the One Power in would burn them out, or kill them, or if it would be something that they could handle. 
[*]Someone could do something super ridiculous and call in a Raken from seemingly nowhere, cool. I'll then have an army of Seanchan appear, to make it make sense.
[*]You want to go to Tel'aran'rhiod? Go for it. We'll figure out the consequences as we go.[/list]
[*]Anything can happen once we've established character and setting. 
[*]I encourage ridiculous stuff, because it challenges me as a GM. [/list]
