Lately I’ve run into a problem at my game table. My games are usually every other week, but for the last few months, they have become very erratic. I’ve come down with a few illnesses, some of my players personal lives have become rather cluttered, you name it, it’s probably happened.
Well, as of last week, I’ve had a player drop. Not permanently but he will be on hiatus for some time. So I’ve decided to switch my 3.5 game to a 4e one and brought in a new player that used to play in our group. The dilemma I am facing however is that I don’t really want to DM and more so, What if this other player comes back? He doesn’t want to learn a new edition and the player I brought in isn’t interested in playing anything other than the new one. I like both players but I just don’t like the idea of choosing one of them over the other.
I’ve never had to face such a decision before and I must say it’s a tough one. I’m hoping that the one player will convert to the new edition of Dungeon and Dragons because I find that he is a valued member of the original group. I am also hoping that one of these guys will step up to become a DM because I’m rather uninspired by the game setting at this time.
