We ara a group of mixed players/gm, and we alternate us in running
adventures.

Typical scenario (actually happened yesterday evening)
-----------------------------------------------------------
GM: "Ok, the girl you had to bodyguard is dead (hellblast :)"
Player: "Uh... well..."
GM (closing the master screen): "So, let's look at the karma awards..."
Player: "But, we have to find out who killed her"
GM: "Why? There's no one to pay you anymore"
Player: "Yes, but I don't have my adventure ready now!"
GM:" Oh... well... "

Hope you all understand what I mean...:)
