With gaming moving to Saturday I'm not planning on playing anymore.  Saturday's are a catch-up and family day for me so gaming, even every other Saturday, just doesn't fit into my intended schedule.

I don't ask (or expect) it to move back to Friday on my account.  It has been fun playing but I've grown tired of gaming in the last little bit anyway.

Have a fun.

Yeah, we probably won't move it back while I'm GMing because I have a really hard time GMing on a work day (I tend to want to not work that day).  We know you've been looking for an excuse to stop gaming for a while, and I'd actually figured you'd drop gaming with the GM switch anyways - regardless of the day of week.

"We know you've been looking for an excuse..."

This is not true.  I have been growing less interested in gaming (and not anything to do with the campaign in general... it is my own personal disinterest, not a lack of campaign ability to hook my interest) but to say that I was looking for or needing an excuse to stop is just not true.  If I had decided not to game I'd just come out and say that I decided not to game, I don't need an excuse for it.  I'm not petty enough to want something else to blame and I am big enough to admit that the problem lies within myself not any external factors.

I really DON'T like playing on Saturday which is why every time it was moved to a Saturday in the last several months I didn't go.

I was planning on stopping for a while when I heard a GM switch was coming up because of disinterest right now.  I was trying to ride it out in Jeremy's campaign since my character was "the star", but in the end I felt like my attending wasn't really helping anything anyway and wasn't fair to the rest of the players or the GM.

Anyway, take it how you will.  I'm stopping because I am just not interested in playing right now and especially on Saturday nights.  Even if it continued on Friday, you are right, I probably wouldn't be attending for the next little while.

Here's me being pedantic (mostly because I wasn't intending any slight with the word 'excuse'), but I meant the definition of excuse as a "pretext".  You just basically summed up that you were already going to quit, had been looking forward to quitting, and that you are quitting because you're not interested in playing right now.  That's fine, no one is making you play, and no one wants someone there that doesn't want to play.

It was obvious by your words of "I don't ask (or expect) it to move back to Friday on my account.  It has been fun playing but I've grown tired of gaming in the last little bit anyway" that the shift to Saturday was really irrelevant, and was at most a final motivator.  Additionally, someone had told me a few weeks ago that you had told them you were looking for an excuse to quit.  So, maybe that was the word they chose to use, but it still seems to fit the timing and the method.  Perhaps I was being inconsiderate in not asking you what kind of character you wanted to play, or if you would play on Saturday night, but by the time me GMing was even in a concrete timeline (or even mentioned playing on Saturday night), I'd already heard from this other person that you didn't plan on playing.
