Gen Con really reminded me of how far I've departed from writing for a general audience and how much my games have lost as a result. I love writing games that are hyper-intellectual puzzles that require outside research, enable massive meta-gaming and are generally elitist "guess what I'm thinking" games. But, after running a few games pitched at a general audience at Gen Con, I'm thinking of getting back to writing games that can please a wider ranger of players. Right now, my the two games I run are so hyper-intellectual, half the stuff that's happening is incomprehensible and cool only to me -- that's not to say that they players I have aren't having an incredible time -- but still...
Sometimes I'm so into my PC I forget to temper my roleplay with paying attention to the fun of others. This HAS led to occasional friction between me an my chums.
As a GM, sometimes I make campaign design mistakes or erroneous in-game rulings that I don't catch until its too late to correct.

More buildup than result. I'll spend 5 sessions building up to something revealed in 5 minutes.
Too much off-topicness. I make more jokes than the rest of the group too often.
Sometimes focusing consequences of PC actions even if they aren't fun (should be both).
Those are my three major flaws.
