I like being a purée producing DM... The recipe is quite unintentional on my part. More of a group effort. This mysterious formula has variously produced mince-meat player pie; the fricassee fire-Ball that includes a lot of hot steps, not at all comparable to the bugbear boogaloo; and the pieces-from-the-resistance, Anguished Angel-Food Cake served with Tearful Tea.

"Normal" is just a setting on the dryer. I fixed it: Abnormal is the new normal. Also the name of the chap whose brain I have. "Abby Normal" they told me.

I ref, but will play in a good group that does modern or sci-fi games. I generally Ref fantasy not play in it.

This is why our ND&DG group had a rule that each member had to GM every so often, based on TDYs more often than not.

No one else ever wants to do it, I would love to find a new player who wanted to learn to ref (well two would be ideal then the could take turns. I have always thought that getting to play now and then would be good for your refereeing.

This is so true, when I played a first ed wiz(earlier this year) , I discovered how pitiful they even at L6-7(where my game always tops out) I was lucky anyone played one at all.

Primarily the DM/Ref and rarely a player.

Rarely am I a player, I am the Ref/DM 99.99% of the time.

Over the course of my life, I've played more than I've refereed. I have been refereeing a lot more since my old group split up around 2000.

I almost always am the referee and rarely play. I prefer it that way, refereeing is more fun for me than playing. Of course, if I could clone myself and play in my own game then if would be 50/50 and me and my clone would trade off.

Ref by default, it seems. I was the first one in my circle of friends to have any RPG's, so I guess I just got stuck with it. However, I like to ref, since I like creating settings, themes, creatures and other things associated with the task. Sure, it'd be cool to be the player sometimes - but then again, I'd like to actually play again for real (it's been years...) I feel for you Necromancer , I went a long time with only reffing. What I would like to do is split into two people so I could play in my own world, I have some other refs (three) in my group, they are all good and all have fun games to play in when they ref but none of them really do a game anything close to what I do. And none of them are reffing right now or in the near future. Yeah, I was the Admin when this post was made.
