Haha, nice to see someone else grew up around the same stuff I had when I was a teenager :D Do you also in retrospect find those things slightly embarassing?

We used to play tabletop RPGs once or twice a week. How much more creative my life was back then .. :(

Absolutely not, I still love going to comic shops and gaming stores and getting to talk geek with the proprietors. Since moving back to the States I have yet to find a group of gamers which has been annoying, but it hasn't stopped me from jotting down ideas in notebooks for future games. Honestly I find sitting behind a computer screen playing World of Warcraft to be a lot "nerdier" than sitting around a table playing a game. At least with PnP games there's real social interaction without the use of some expensive piece of technology.

You should honestly get back into it, even if it's just one session a week, or once every two weeks. It's the best way to spend a cheap night in with friends, using your imagination and wit to play the game while the TV stays off.

I don't know any players in the city I live in now and I don't feel like searching for them because mostly, in my experience it was always better playing with my close friends. We had our own style and we knew eachothers sense of humour and everytime I played with someone I didn't know as well, the experience was less satisfying - like they did things differently in a way I didn't appreciate - like roll dice more than rp.

What I could do of course is to try and make something happen during the short period I'm back south with my old friends around christmas :D Thanks for the inspiration!

You totally should, even if it's a short campaign it's still a lot of fun. I bought my brother a physical copy of Werewolf: The Apocalypse for Christmas and we're going to do a small story of that over Christmas.

Doesn't it count for anything that I used to be pretty damned good a M:tG?

Brennen you're in a category of your own that is not bound to the average stereotypes.

I remember many summers ago, we played M:tG and D&D games all our waking hours for a week because we were trapped inside a cabin and the weather was ****ty. Good times, though, good times.

And that sounds absolutely amazing. I wouldn't mind spending 1 weekend up in a cabin with a few friends during ****ty conditions. As long as we had warmth, food, booze, LOTS of pot, and an RPG book along with pens, paper and dice. One day...
