James aka Lythari is a good guy. Unfortunately, James does not view his role as a DM on StartPlaying as that of a service provider. James is offensively unconcerned with people's time. Sessions start on average 30 minutes after the advertised time. Breaks have repeatedly gone in excess of 30 minutes. Sessions routinely end a minimum of 30 minutes early. Magical loot takes 2-3 sessions to be properly handed out because they are not done beforehand and he forgets to do them between sessions. The final straw for me was a session being cancelled because 2 of the 6 party members were unavailable. If this was a home game or at my local card shop I would not be bothered, but as a service I am paying weekly for I cannot justify paying someone to half-ass it. James is a very personable and nice guy, but if he wants to be a professional DM there are some adjustments that need to be made before it is a service worth paying for. I hope for his and his players' sake this is taken as constructive criticism and helps to improve the product he provides.

DM Joe's games are fantastic. The depth of the story reflects the amount of work he very obviously puts into each session. From session zero on I have been having a great time and look forward to the session each week.

I can not think of high enough praise for Mattie and her sessions. I look forward to them and have signed up for more when they fit my schedule. Consistently the highlight of my week. If you are looking for an amazing experience Mattie is the DM/GM for you.
