[QUOTE="haakon1, post: 5119859, member: 25619"] [b]Punctuality & Quorem[/b] S'mon brings up two topics I'd call related: 1) Punctuality. How long from official start time to everyone's actually there and ready to play? [U][/U] 2) Quorem. How many players need to be there to play? - Live group I'm a player in (now just started doing 4e). [U]Punctuality[/U]: Most people show up with 10 minutes of the scheduled arrival time. Usually someone is up to a half hour late. We usually start doing administrivia with 15 minutes of start, and roll for initiative about 30-45 minutes into it. (For what it's worth, all are Americans, 2 from the Northeast, 3 from the West Coast.) [U]Quorem[/U]: 4 out of 5 players. The DM has made that an official rule. - Live group I DM (running 3.5e). [U]Punctuality:[/U] One player is usually 10-15 minutes early. One is usually +/-5 minutes, and one is on-time to 30 minutes. The last is new, so no read yet. (3 are Americans -- one is an East Coaster, two from the Seattle area; one is a Korean citizen whose lived mostly in Seattle.) [U]Quorem:[/U] 3 out of 4, but that's unofficial. [/QUOTE]
