Agreed, on both counts. And if that was only his second time playing, not his first, I'm still impressed.

Yes.... Either a good case of type-casting, or good role-play of the "argumentative" and "irritating" abilities that were apparently on his character sheet. Let's assume the latter.

The impression I got was that he thought he knew everything about TT RPGS - ah well, must have been more good roleplaying on his part.

I just wanted a better look :) And the "magnet for trouble" ability I'd given the character seems to have been as useful to the GM as I'd hoped.
The apple supply method was a better case of gratuitous use of an exotic ability when a simple one would have worked fine. We could have simply handed him the bag of apples, but oh no, it had to be an aerial supply run and bombardment. I'm still surprised the rest of the party let me get away with that.
