I'm sorry that you had a bad experience with the game.  I
currently have 3 characters in the game.  One in the 1200's, another
in the 1650's and a 3rd in 1992.

I will admit that the game could be a little more
'professionaly' run, but I find the minimal hassles worth the game.
Every adventure is run by a different DM (on a rotating basis) so that
you get to experience several different styles of play.  You can
choose to play your adventures by yourself, or you can ask to join
others in your time period.

The game has it's ruff spots, but they are very willing to
hear suggestions.  All in all, I still think it's one of the better
ROLE playing games around.
