Message: <blockquote data-quote="Desdichado" data-source="post: 4598916" data-attributes="member: 2205">This is one reason why I like gaming with a bunch of guys who are more or less in the same situation as me.  We're all (with one exception) married, and we all (with two exceptions) have kids.Do we have times where familial conflicts make it difficult to schedule gaming?  Yes, absolutely.Do we have times where professional conflicts make it difficult to schedule gaming?  Yes, occasionally.Do we have a regular gaming cadence and schedule?  No... we tried but there were too many variables, so we decided the best we could do was approximate once every other week for 5-6 hours or so on a Friday or Saturday night, whichever ended up being most convenient to the most players.Do we have occassions when most of the group can get together except one or two guys?  Yes, frequently.Do we do our best to work with the guy in that situation?  Yes, of course.  We're friends, after all.Does everyone always get exactly what they want in terms of the gaming schedule?  Of course not.Sometimes we reschedule.  Sometimes we game shorthanded.  Sometimes a player has a bad run of it where his schedule doesn't align with the rest of the group for a couple months or so at a time.However, we understand that that's the realities of playing with a bunch of people who have real lives and real life responsibilities, who can't reasonably be asked to make gaming their #1 priority, so we work around it as best we can.Sucks for me sometimes; since mid-November or so, I've been the guy who can't make a session.  But that's the way it works.</blockquote>
