If you have an axe to grind, please do it elsewhere. Now, where was I ...I'm discovering something interesting so far with my gaming groups when it comes to the announcement of 4th edition. Among the players I most frequently game with there is a very definite split concerning which edition to play once 4e is released. In one group all four players have stated their intent to convert or start fresh at the launch. In another group, 4 out of seven have decided not to bother with 4e, instead staying with 3.5 and house ruling as needed. The remaining three from that group are also split with one having no opinion since he just came back to gaming after ten years away from it, and the other two said they will play 3.5 till the campaign ends in the mid teen levels (currently 5th) and then look at 4e to decide.The third group of 3 players is also not interested in 4e because of the expense and they just don't see a need to make a change. They feel 3.5 is fine with some minor house rules so why spend the money.That leaves me, the DM for these three groups in an awkward position. I'm determined to finish my Ptolus campaigns come hell or high water. Converting Ptolus to 4e isn't worth it since it would eat up too much time and I have precious little as it is. Then there's the curiosity I have about how good 4e might be. Running two different systems would be a challenge. I'm not sure how to jump.It also leaves me wondering if this is typical of other groups at this stage of things or are my folks just an odd lot.Are you finding your groups split like this or solidly in one camp or another?</blockquote>
