[QUOTE="Mercurius, post: 4905335, member: 59082"] Here are some general guidelines. My guess is that we have very few "Casual" gamers here, although I could be wrong (if you vote for Casual I think you should rethink! ;)). And yeah, I know, "don't fence me in" and all that. This poll doesn't have to perfectly describe your gamitude, just pick the closest option. The following is taken from [URL="http://www.enworld.org/forum/general-rpg-discussion/263925-will-d-d-ever-able-regain-base-casual-players-2.html#post4905330"]this thread.[/URL][INDENT][B]CASUAL[/B]: May own rule books, but only a few and only for the purpose of playing. Rarely thinks about gaming outside of a session. Plays no more than once a week, probably less (has a hard time committing to more than once or twice a month).

Doesn't go on internet forums about gaming, at least not more than once or twice to check things out (may run quickly the other way). Definitely doesn't know what "The Forge" is.
