[QUOTE="BlackMoria, post: 5651194, member: 424"] Or you could, you know, go through the selection process trying to be completely unbiased about it. You have already stated you intent to meet prospects at your gaming shop. Arrange for a short one shot game session at the store gaming table, invite him and some of the other prospects to the session and run the adventure. Afterwards, you will either confirm your initial impressions or the guy surprises you. Either way, you can tell him is either in or out. Most people will take rejection as long as they feel they participated in a fair process and they didn't make the cut. Where hurt feelings come into play is when people get kicked to the curb without them feeling they had a chance to influence the decision making. In short, I would do the above and give the person a shot at it. You are only wasting a few hours of your time at the game store, running a one shot for other prospects anyhow.... [/QUOTE]
