[QUOTE="MNblockhead, post: 9206407, member: 6796661"] Depends on your lifestyle and work. I have a very demanding job. I'm away from home more often than I'm at home. I put in a full days work at the office and frequently have to spend hours in the evening communicating with colleagues and vendors in other time zones. It is really, really difficult for me to schedule a regular session on a weekly or biweekly basis regardless of the session duration. But I can almost always find a Saturday once a month when I'm abroad, by myself, away from family. So what I started doing years ago is that I would schedule an 8 hour gaming session on a Saturday. Then, at the end of that session my players and I would go over our calendars and schedule for a Saturday for the next month. It may sound like a recipe for a campaign destined to fall apart, but I'm wrapping up a campaign this Saturday that has run for five years (started in November 2018) and have been playing with mostly the same group of players since early 2014. For me and many of my playes the issue is less find a long enough slot and much more being able to commit to a regular schedule. But we've been able to manage to find a Saturday, once a month, for years, rarely with someone being unable to make it. [/QUOTE]
