Okay, as K's GM for the last 7 years ... damn,
it's been that long ... K is very good ...

The difficulty I have as the GM is that getting
someone else to rise to the occassion and take
active part in the game and make decisions
and -LEAD- the group is an absolute pain the rear
end ...

It does not piss me off that K is always very
active ... it pisses me off that the other players
are just kicking back and letting K make the
majority of all the decisions in the game.

I do my darndest to actually build plots around
the other characters as I know K will do things on
the side (emailing the GM with evil tidings) to
keep some of his pc's projects still moving
without making the game head in his direction.
