"I am a better DM than player and I prefer to play." :)

That is at least what remains from my own perception and the others' (hopefully honest) comments. I am neither a fantastic DM nor an appalling player, just have a little more edge with DMing - probably due to some good description and planning things. As a player I often get it wrong when it comes to solve the plot mistery :p

However I prefer playing just because I like surprises, and of course it takes less time & effort... :uhoh: If I had more free time (or less hobbies) I'd definitely spend more time DMing, at the end I like both equally, but I don't like DMing in a superficial way.

Selected Other. Sometimes I like to be the DM (especially when I got an "evil" idea :] ), but sometimes it is just funny to kick some monster's or BBEG's @$$...druidic shifters rule :D

How would you describe yourself?
Someone who likes more descriptive subject lines. :)

I don't know if I'm a better player or DM. I think I have a lot of improvement possible on the DM front, but I don't hear complaints.

I enjoy both DMing & playing about equally, I think. I certainly feel less stressed when playing. :) Mostly its during the day before a session that I'm suppossed to DM that get feeling really stressed that I haven't prepared as much as I should've & that I have no idea what's going to happen.
 



I lvoe DMing and feel I am a much better DM than player. When I play I powergame quite a bit and tend to be a spotlight hog :(.
When I DM I powergame quite a bit ;) and love seeing my players solve the wacky problems I put before them. Often by bashing them but that satifies my inner powergamer.
