Message: <blockquote data-quote="Greenfield" data-source="post: 6241491" data-attributes="member: 6669384">We have roughly eight people at the game table.  Five of us DM.  (Not sure, some of the newer players may yet take up the challenge.)That gives everybody who wants to a chance to play, and everybody who wants to a chance in the DM's chair.  It doesn't mean that we're all good DMs.  (I'm pretty sure I'm bloody awful sometimes. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />)The down side of the dynamic is that we have to endure each others brain-fails.  The good side is that we aren't stuck with anyone when they're busy having a brain-fail.  One side effect of the round-robin style is that we all tend to ge easy in terms of character power.  Advancing too quickly tends to move the game out of the comfort zone people have built.  We have some players who are rules sharks, and some who definitely aren't.  As a group, we tend to move at the speed of the slower members.And to give credit where credit is due, my time on this forum, getting advice, criticism, sympathy and the occasional beat-down by you good folk have helped me in my understanding of the rules, and inspired me to expand my library considerably.  We each are, after all, the sum of our experiences, and hanging out here has definitely been an experience.Thanks.</blockquote>
