[QUOTE="Ashrem Bayle, post: 631209, member: 3103"] My decision to call the game off came from several directions: 1. Bickering. As I said before, I play these games for fun and to relieve stress. When it starts being a source of stress, I'm ready to stop. 2. I'd be lying if I said that my personal life wasn't at least a little bit responsible. I do most all of my surfing here at work. Now, things here at work have gotten very hectic lately. I took over this game with the clear intention of setting it up, an letting you guys take off with it. This obviously isn't going to happen. 3. I realized that this game might be at an end yesterday. I had a hard day at work and thought I would log in and see how the game was going to relax. Needless to say, what I found was far from relaxing. At that point I had to ask myself if this is the kind of game I want to run. Do I think things would get better? The answer to both was "No". There are too many personality and playing-style conflicts and at best I believe the game would die off from lack of interest derived from hurt feelings and bruised egos. The game simply leaves a bad taste in my mouth at this point. I'll take it as my failure as a Storyteller and consider it an experience to learn from. Again, I am very sorry, but I have no interest in continuing this game at this time. If you can find a new Storyteller, or work out a way to continue on your own, I wish you all the best of luck.
