[QUOTE="UniversalMonster, post: 1821981, member: 1034"] I have a weekly group. Usually I'm the DM, but on certain alternate times we have an 'alternate' campaign set in the same world where I am a player instead of a DM, and we plan on running a crossover game that mixes up the two groups. Ok, so frustrations: 1) Sometimes the whole group can't get together. If at least two players can show up, plus me DMing, we still run, but it does hinder things. I can also run even if the other DM cancels at the last moment, but that slashes prep time down to nothing. But I love everyone in my group so it's all good. 2) Encounter prep can be tough. I just got my E-Tools updated to use the 3.5 dataset this month and I am back in action with funky templated and customized encounters again. For a while I had given up and was running encounters from their book descriptions. (I didn't realize they even MADE a 3.5 dataset for E-Tools). 3) In the group where I am a player I want more treasure!!! No seriously, I think we're suffering below the poverty line in that game =) 4) I want to run another game or bring new players in to fill the group out a little. I want to play in another group maybe. [/QUOTE]
