GM'ed SR for three years, never played, I think the last time I actually
played a character was about 10 years ago, oh no, I had a Elf
swordmaster in ED, two years ago, but he got eaten by a horror in the
opening sequence, though the GM never did explain how it got into a
crowded bar without anyone noticing, oh well....

People keep asking me to run games for them, so I don't get to play.
(weep, whinge, grizzle, whime..) :-(

Though I suppose, that running as a second GM, using NPCs in someone
else's game might qualify as "playing". ???

Heroes or Fools? That's a determination others will make in hindsight. But by
being here now, we make that determination for ourselves, and it's neither.
