Gaming Dedication Likert Scale - How do you characterize yourself?

[Umbran]

You're not the first person to think of that*, but there are problems: pets, kids, and getting your buddies to play games on the floor.**

I have a pair of energetic kittens in my home. Unless the party wants the PCs to be frequently set upon by the tarrasqcats, the floor isn't an option. "*whap!* Well, there goes the dwarf under the sofa again."

There was a thread on these boards about some guy who had a projector & whiteboard system for his games... I was jealous.

I tell you this: if I ever get me of those stoopid huge lottery payouts- the kind that put you in Mitt Romney's neighborhood- my new house will include a dedicated gaming room. I don't know if I'd go wargamer sandtable or some kind of electronic suite*, but I will have me one.

Along with a library, a well-lit artist's garret and a recording studio.











* then again, why choose?

 

[Umbran]

the kind that put you in Mitt Romney's neighborhood-

I think Mitt keeps a brownstone in Boston's Back Bay - those places are pricey, but not at all roomy.

Now, having an entire brownstone dedicated to gaming! There's a concept!

...Romney's financial neighborhood.

In Boston? You don't want to live in the Financial District here. Traffic's a killer, the real-estate is all office buildings and costs though the roof...

 

[Ahnehnois]

Yeah, I'm coming down on very serious. I have a sizable book collection but not a lot else. I DM more than one system, and I have an encyclopedic knowledge of at least one. I post on message boards. I read opinions. I theorize.

But I can easily go on a long hiatus, and when life is busy I may not think about this particular hobby for extended periods of time.

I'm definitely not where some of the real diehards are.

D'oh! Why you little!...

When I whip it out, it hits the table with a mighty *fwapp*, accompanied by squeals of joy.

I probably shouldn't have skipped to page 4 of the thread.

I'd say uber, but I think periodically culling the book collection disqualifies me.

Mere DieHard.

Another reason I didn't vote "Diehard"- I actually got rid of @40% of my collection of games (not books, but distinct systems).

Likewise.

I had a major purge before my last - and hopefully final - international move.
