Want to stop being the creator of a game

1503821448

I created a game for some friends of mine so I could help them set up their first game which I am going to play as. I would thus like to be demoted as DM so I don't get anything spoiled. It doesn't appear to be possible to stop being a DM since I am the creator of the game. Did I miss something or is it simply not possible to not be a DM anymore?

Nope. You can login as a player though. Top right corner, under the Settings tab. Rejoin as Player.

As sky pointed out, on the setting tab there is a rejoin as player button. You can right click and copy address it then create a bookmark with that address so you can just click on the bookmark and enter the game room as a player without having to go in and rejoin every time.

It does come across as somewhat strange that you can't go through some 2-3 step proccess of transfering ownership of a game, even if said ownership was say - a clone of your game. But yes, currently the only option that falls onto you is to log in as a GM and have the GM effectively make folders that you simply never open/read into.

The problem is likely one of asset ownership. Though it would likely be pretty trivial to transfer ownership of the game itself, you cannot transfer libraries. There are too many copyright and purchased asset issues.
