[QUOTE="sjmiller, post: 4287492, member: 17262"] You know, I have to say that I am on the DMs side here. If he doesn't like the game, and doesn't want to run the game, then he shouldn't have to. After all, he's running the game because it is fun for him to do it. If it is not fun, and it is a game, then what's the point? If the current players are so set on playing 4e then one of them should step up and offer to run the game. Who knows, maybe the current DM will like the game once he has played it a few times. Maybe the new DM will really like running the game and will offer to do it more. Maybe, just maybe, your group can have two different DMs running two different games. If my players decided they wanted to play Hero System or Palladium, then I would have to tell them that I was not interested in running it. Could I run them? Sure, I could. Would I enjoy running them? No, not really. So if I do not enjoy running a game I will not put my best efforts into it, and the game would suffer. So, in that case, as in yours, nobody would be the winner. So, step up to bat! Offer to run a game. It can't hurt. [/QUOTE]
