Packrat,

So, if you find out whom went complaining to the GM, are you going to find every game he is in and broadcast analysis for those that are opposing him?  Because I know who went complaining to the GM and I agree; your one-sided analysis is inappropriate.

As you say, there is no way I or anyone can stop you from broadcasting your analysis.  But most of us are interested in learning and experiencing these nuances for ourselves.  Besides the fact that it seems this game is over anyway, I ask that you make your analysis privately with those who are interested (even those opposing us, if they are interested).

Thank you,
     Darryl Good (Italy)

Gentlemen, and interested parties:

I have been contacted by the GM and informed by him
that some of you have issues with my more or less
rolling commentaries.  The short answer is, too bad.
As a former player in this game I can comment on
anything I see fit, as can any of you.

However, the larger issue, for me, is that none of you
had the courtesy to come to me first.  I'll spare you
the seminarian, Matthew 18, aspect of it and stick to
plain old respect.  I have been in games with many of
you and GM'd some games you have been in and, quite
frankly, to go crying to the GM doesn't say much of
you or much of how you see me.  Am I pissed?  Nah,
just grossly disappointed.  

Now, in all actuality I have gotten more than one
email stating that they liked my commentaries on this
game and on some of the others I have been in.  I do
not normally do this unless, as is the case here, I
have been in the game.  However short it may have been
I came in and filled the English void, at the GM's
request I believe, since nobody else would step up and
play a one dot position.

I do not know who contacted the GM, nor do I actually
care, but to do so without first giving me the chance
to respond is childish, immature and, well, gutless.  

Two final points,

1.  Had the players emailed me and expressed their 
    concern I might have stopped.

2.  Since they didn't give me that courtesy I am 
    inclined to BE SURE and make comments in the 
    future.

Scott
