Message: <blockquote data-quote="sakkara" data-source="post: 3230974" data-attributes="member: 13021">Been playing for almost 25 years now, and have played in a variety of places.  Through high school, we cycled between 3 of our houses, no more than 10 miles apart.Through college, we played in the dorms or our apartment (once we moved off campus).Post-college, I've been lucky to host more often than not, so that made things easy, especially when I DM'd (we rotate).  I did used to head to the FLGS for some M:tG back in the day.  Our D&D games have predomiantly been weekly.Since building a new house & moving out to the exurbs of Minneapolis (waaaay out in Rogers for those who know the area), we moved our group's gaming location to another place centrally located.  But my commute is pretty far out, so heading over there isn't terribly far out of the way.  Plus when I moved out to build, I am 2 blocks from one of my best friends who also is in the group, so we ride-share on gaming day every week.One person in the group faces a similar commute (being far out like us so its not a big deal to divert over some on the way home to game).  But one other guy lives the wrong way, and drives about 45 minutes to play.Also in the earlier '90's 3 of us road-tipped weekly from Minneapolis to St. Cloud to play with friends (about 1.5 hours).I think how far you'll drove depends on the quality of your game & the strength of your relationships with those at the table.  All our long drives have been to play with good friends.  I don't think people would be willing to drive near as far to play with people they met via ads or something.-Sakkara</blockquote>
