so i've heard! i see my gm do that sort of work all the time. he's a great guy, and he gets REALLY in tune with scheduling so that he can get people together when he wants for games or just to hang out. i'm a pretty close friend of his, and last semester he recited my entire weekly schedule to me and only missed ONE thing.

he did tell me one thing about dm-ing. if you make a mistake, it's a home-brew rule. and that makes me feel better when i think about starting to dm.
