In a gritty Twilight game, you can't give this to the PCs and eventually either everyone dies or it's an anti-climax where the PCs know they didn't survive by their own devices.

As a GM, I've learned this the hard way. Ouch.
And guys, I hope no one took my first post in this thread to be a criticism of the game and/or GM in question. As Chalk said, if I deep down didn't like it, I too would have quit long ago.
In the game's defense, it is more of a cooperatively written T2K novel than a turn-based PbP.
