Remember, by definition, I am a "casual DM" at this point in my life because of the other priorities in my life. Even so, the rules masters enjoy my style as DM enough to play 4E with me (even though they prefer the fun of rules mastery in 3E more). And noone else wants to step up within our group to run an ongoing campaign. I would even be willing to play in a 3E campaign if they were to run one.Edit: Also, those without rules mastery in my group have no problem creating competent characters. Not having the time and resources for rules mastery doesn't make any of us "rules stupid."</blockquote>
