What Do You Like Best and Least About Being a GM/DM?

Last week, I asked for your opinions on what you liked best about being a GM and what you liked least. A couple of you responded and here are your answers:

The Best Things:

  • From Sean Holland: “… there is nothing better than seeing the world come alive through the players’ eyes and actions. It makes all the work worthwhile.”
  • From ATerribleIdea: “Seeing a player gnaw their fingernail until it bleeds in a tense scene.”

The Worst Things:

  • From Sean Holland: “… having your inspiration vanish is miserable.”
  • From ATerribleIdea: “Defusing actual hostility.”

Thanks guys for your input!
