[QUOTE="Fenris, post: 4511550, member: 2820"] I think that it is both. As one of the longest serving players, I hate to see the game end. It was such a fun game. But it is equally satisfying to see it actually end and not just die out. I think the most important one is to have an ending! And to reach it. A PbP is a different beast, every DM has to find what works for them. DT took care of all the rolling behind the scenes and combat was essentialy descriptive on our part. I liked that as we weren't focued on how many bonuses we would get, we just said what we would do, and didn't worry about modifiers. A second thing is good players, we had many great players and they came and went for a variety of reasons, but DT just rolled with it and we kept going. But that initial screen for players can help you find those players who are the best fit for your game and playing style. Highlights: Wow, too many too list. I;ll have to use my own list here. There was one were my character burst into a burning room to save a friend, leaping out of the flames at the end and getting burned. One of the other players made a great comment about how that was what made a man a noble, not his blood (my character was a noble so it had great meaning). I cheesed off DT once when I guessed one of his many curveballs he would throw at us. Remember the Radnal estate DT? That was the ONLY surprise we ruined though let me tell you. Oh there were so many, DT ran such a great game that I can't begin to name all the cool stuff we did. I think DT summed it up for us: "They had faced down kobolds, goblins, a mad gnome, trolls, orcs, the Faerie Court, undead both new and ancient, the Lord of the Mountain, an ogre magi, gargoyles, elementals, gods made mortal and more." Don;t forget negotiated with an emporer, the dryads, the skum, the damned HYDRA (I really thought Dartis would be dead at that one) and so many others. And we only went from 1st to what 5th level? SO much fun. Thanks again DT. Michael, it is a worthwhile read to go back and read this game from the begining. [/QUOTE]
