# What is derailing (01:45) Derailing is the act of going off planned session, basically when the campaign is going off tracks. # Uri’s suggestions: ## Some examples that cause derailing (04:15) - **The Squeaky Goblin** - The NPC that becomes the focus of everyone’s attention - usually a goblin with a squeaky voice that take the focus of the whole session.* “Sure, let's talk with Bananagar about him being a simple uninteresting goblin farmer that came to trade furs and grains because of the harsh winter in the mountains. Yea, Sure, he has a family, his wife Peachgar and kids Berrygar and Applegar”.* - **The “Not MacGuffin”** \- an item or clues that the party is sure is very important even though it isn’t. - **The Misconception** \- the players got it all wrong - **The Paranoid Character** \- the party will not trust nor listen to any source of information. ## Ways of coping (08:22) - ** “Yes and...”** \- My favorite approach, incorporate the derailment into your campaign (AKA: “Roll with it” or “Make it true”). - **Side-quest subversion** - why not? Just because it’s not important in this plot, doesn’t mean that it’s not important for some other plot. This could be a great sub plot or a lead for a future plot. - **Give up** \- The old plot is dead, long live the new plot. This is now the new plot! *We will help Bananagar help his village!* # Eran’s point of view: ## Trust and conceit (11:47) We gathered here to play a specific game, about a specific narrative; let’s stick to it. And GM, earn some trust.
