Re: OOC Thread
I suspect gestalt games don't last because the GMs don't know what they are letting themselves in for, and it requires more work for the GM. Plus, players usually think they are building super-heroes and get bummed out and leave when the GM gives them challenges that actually challenge them.
I started one where the PCs were 10th level gestalts with a bonus feat every level. Nearly all the players quit when I gave them challenges that didn't let them be super-heroes. I think they were expecting to go kill a thousand orcs in 2 or 3 rounds.
