[QUOTE="Majoru Oakheart, post: 6346559, member: 5143"] I'm going to disagree. My time as a Triad member and admin in LFR showed me that precisely what everyone was using those campaigns for. A large amount of the adventures were being run in stores purely due to space concerns. However, most of them were being ordered and ran with nearly no notice. I got so many questions about the minimum ordering time in LG as well as witnessed so many people breaking that rule. You were supposed to order 2(?) weeks in advance of the event time. But everyone ordered them less than a week before the time and lied about the time they were going to run on just so they had something to do on Saturday(and could get around the ordering system). During the year I lived in Australia, the local store had 2 adventures every Saturday but the 30 or so regulars would constantly run adventures at their house on other days of the week. The same was true of the people back in Winnipeg when I came back here. As well as most of the people I knew in Toronto(and surrounding area). The entire point of playing LG was that the group of 30 people were all friends and that any 6 of them might be free on any particular day so they could get together and form a party for 5 hours....while simultaneously having their character be part of a larger campaign where the XP, gp and accomplishments you made during that 5 hours mattered in the greater campaign.
