yurodivuie and I had a sort of "working dinner" at the Sunlight Cafe (great vegetarian food, but not quite as vegan-friendly as one would generally hope) as we prepared the imminent Exalted one-shot that we'll be running soon in Dallas. As David pointed out, one shots are often more difficult than ongoing games to prepare for, especially when you don't know most of the players in advance and most of the players don't know the system in advance. The work-to-payoff ratio as a GM is also generally much lower, unless you're running an adventure that you've done before. It is, however, a wedding present of sorts for a friend, and a favor of sorts for another friend, so we've been frantically making those last-minute preparations, and we're praying that everyone involved will have a good time.
The worst part of flying across the country to run an Exalted one-shot on the weekend, though, is missing a session of your own regular Exalted campaign.
Cheers.
