Something that's come up a time or two and has come up again... We've got a proposal for a game from somebody that's already running a game. I tend to want to say that one game ought to be enough for anybody, but there are GM's out there running three or four games at a time. Considering the level of quality that the Phoenyx wants to maintain, I'd prefer GM's to run only one game at a time. But if we refuse them a second list, they're likely to run off to Yahoo and start a second game there anyway. Karen's inclined to let them run multiple games, provided that they're doing well with the existing one(s). I'm not sure I like it, but I don't see that we can control it. Any thoughts on the matter? (The existing game is deusx if you want to take a look. It seems to be running alright.) -- -------------------------------------------------------------- Listowner tools are found at http://www.phoenyx.net/listowners

Given that I have been half-heartedly thinking about running a Westworld game (if the background ever solidifies enough for a relative "outsider" to run one), I would hate to have the fact that I'm already running a game count *against* me. Realistically, if you're already running a game, I would think that you would be able to do a more realistic assesment of whether or not you are up to running a second one. > (The existing game is deusx if you want to take a look.

Then I'd ask the Jonathan if he's *really* sure he wants to do this and, if he is, approve it. -- -------------------------------------------------------------- Listowner tools are found at http://www.phoenyx.net/listowners

Blame sloppy fingers and insufficient attention to what I was typing. -- -------------------------------------------------------------- Listowner tools are found at http://www.phoenyx.net/listowners
