Back in 9th grade, we, as a group, decided to start gaming. Since then, they've brought some of their previously non-mutual friends to various games we had, and now we've grown to a group of about ten (though no more than six of us are usually at a session), from five originally. We would have been eleven, but one of the original five became a stoner, and sort of wandered off, and we haven't really talked with him in a few months. Anyway, the remaining four of the original five (including me) are almost done with 11th grade now, and we've got a couple of guys who started college this last fall, and we recruited some new gamers, along with people in our grade that have been long-time aquaintances that we only recently discovered to be nerds.In any event, all of my friends are gaming buddies, but that's because several of them were my friends before we started gaming (in fact, I've 'known' one of them since we were a few months old), and the rest just sort of joined the group along the way, and came to be good friends.Now, interestingly, the (we) original five started gaming because we had been playing MMOs and found them lacking. Well, and because that's what teenage nerds and geeks do on this island...not much to do other than gaming, other than talking about gaming, and having Lan parties...you see, in my social circle, a dedicated server gets a lot more people to a party than a keg would.</blockquote>
