Which is one reason why I've been delaying making this post.So firstly I must apologise to the players and DM's in the games that I was running or part of, for dropping the ball yet again!  Sadly the recent reshuffle at work has increased my workload to the point that it's now extremely difficult for me to find time to put towards pbp games. Compounding the problem are two other factors. 1) I'm now sharing an office with my boss who can easily view my monitor and2) I'm now actually enjoying my work again, so I'm trying to focus on doing a good job, instead of spending all of my working hours on pbp games.So this means that I have to cancel all of the games I was DMing and  playing in (which is three from memory, four if you count Rhun's ToEE game. Although he never did reintroduce Jebediah).  I'm really really sorry about doing this, especially to the players of the games I was DMing. Firstly I hate being a disappointment and not living up to my responsibilities and secondly it seems to be my curse to dream big but to never have the time to actually achieve it.  If only I could get paid for what I love to do the most.Like Rhun and others have said, I'm like herpes and always seem to come back so while I may not DM for a long long time, if ever! I'm sure I can find time to play in one or two games. Although I don't expect any DM to hold open any slots for me.Perhaps if I ever give DMing a try I'll actually learn from my past mistakes and DM a small adventure instead of a huge campaign. If only I didn't love DMing so much <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f641.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":(" title="Frown    :("  data-smilie="3"data-shortname=":(" /></blockquote>
