That being said, my best role as a player is as the 'editing GM' - check stat blocks, redraw the maps, bite my tongue when another player tries to disarm one of the traps I made up as a set of 30 for the other GM, and helping the other players out when they're doing 'player stuff' that I just never quite feel comfortable doing when I'm on the other side of the table. I can never really stop being a GM, but being a player means I suddenly get to focus on a single idea for a single character and actually stop being a horse's behind to my players - 'figure it out yourself, ask someone else because I'm busy, look it up and show my your source.' I hate being that way.</p></blockquote><p></p>
