Message: <blockquote data-quote="pukunui" data-source="post: 5541950" data-attributes="member: 54629">I don't know that it was really all that fast. The PF game started back at the beginning of Feb, and I restarted my own campaign at the end of Feb. It's kinda been festering for a while now.I would love to do that, but every time I've asked them in the past what I could do better and so on, I haven't gotten a satisfactory enough response. I posted in that "how often does your group e-mail" thread that my group is terrible at e-mail and it really frustrates me. I regard e-mail as a "slow conversation", just like the OP of that other thread, so I tend to get a little frustrated/offended when my e-mails go ignored. And my players are pretty good at ignoring my e-mails.LOL. It's OK. I don't mind.As above. I'd love to improve my campaign and make it more competitive/attractive, but I don't really know how, and my players won't really tell me. They enjoyed the first two modules. I'll agree that the third has been a little lackluster so far, but I think things have started to pick up a bit now. My two remaining players have been loving every minute of it so far, though.I have been gaming with player #1 on an almost weekly basis for about 5 years now. In that time, we've done the occasional socializing outside of the game (a birthday party here, a kayaking excursion there), and he used to be good about e-mailing and even chatting on MSN messenger and stuff, but mostly it's been a purely RPG-focused relationship and he's come to hate electronic communication, so we've kind of drifted apart in the past six months or so. Plus, he's become increasingly cynical and bitter, although I think a lot of it has to do with his work situation rather than my campaign.Player #2 and I also occasionally get together for birthday parties or whatever, but it is mostly an RPG relationship. We first met on the forums when I was looking to do a D&D minis trade. Since then, we've met up for lunch occasionally, and he's guest starred in a few of my older campaigns. He's always wanted me to play in his own PF game but it's never worked out. Player #1 was the previous Star Wars GM for our group, and he got Player #2 in as a regular player, so when I took over as GM, he kept playing regularly. He'd like to keep playing with me still, and he doesn't want to make a choice between the two. But I don't know how well that will work out.Player #3 is a purely RPG relationship. I've invited him to my birthday parties and stuff, but he's never come. I only ever see him at the gaming table. And he is also a fairly intermittent player. He is big into outdoor adventure stuff and so he's always galavanting around the country or heading over to Australia or up to the Pacific Islands to go on hiking trips or diving trips or whatever. So he misses sessions quite a bit already actually.It's not odd that they didn't invite me because they all know that I'm not interested in playing Pathfinder. Again, I'm not upset that I got "excluded". I'm upset that I wasn't kept in the loop.  I think what I'm going to do is stick with my two remaining "loyal" players and forget about everyone else. I might eventually start to look for new players. Or, if the PF game falls through and some of the others want to come back, I'll consider it.</blockquote>
