They were awful, mostly because they'd been playing a while and not particularly been paying attention to the rules or because ANYONE has a hard time picking up the curious juggles it takes to run a large group - and they were too nice to put caps on the players like I recommend for the guys that want to try it out with our circle of gamers. The best one was using the Storyteller system, good grasp of mechanics and absolutely encyclopedic knowlegde of where to find anything in any of the books. The only problem was that 'deep immersion' worked against her when everyone's roleplaying murderous psychopaths in a VtM game. I kept having to edit myself, I was "giving her nightmares". It happens I guess.For the record though, those several bad female GMS don't hold a candle to the legions of bad male GMs. I've never just walked out after 5 minutes, for instance, with a female GM. They're at least polite. ;-)</blockquote>
