Just to give you an example, a guy I coach with had one of his former players applying to the CIA. The agency called him and asked him all sorts of character issues about the player - no real problem - the kid was a stand-up person. The interviewer also asked the coach some strange questions like what position did he play? What was the team's record? Did the kid start every game?Later the young man came home - after being accepted, and coach asked him about the interview process. He told coach they checked EVERY single thing he told them in the interview out. Fortunately, he did not brag about his senior year in football, he was a standout player anyway.So, perhaps they might ask you if you play D&D to see if you would cover something potentially embarassing with a lie?</blockquote>
