[QUOTE="chrisnd, post: 1944705, member: 26307"] After only two sessions, one of my players has decided to drop out. It wasn't me, and it certainly wasn't any of the other players, either. He has actually been diagnosed with adult onset ADD (Attention Deficit Disorder). Now, imagine trying to sit at the gaming table for a 5 or 6 hour session with ADD. His limit for anything is about 2-2 1/2 hours (about the length of a feature film). Regardless, we lost one of the core characters, as the background behind the character was crucial to the entire plot-line and story. I can fudge it, but it just won't be the same, and I am already responsible for one NPC that is needed in the group (the cleric aka "walking ambulance"). So, that is the problem, and here is the "help" request. Is there a board or link to this fine group of people in EnWorld that includes a listing of all the players looking for games that are NOT online? What I mean is, short of going to the closest university (a good 30 minutes away) where many gamers may possibly be found, any suggestions on how I can find gamers in my area? I have already introduced the game to a co-worker, and I would prefer not having to do that again. Does EnWorld have such a database of players looking for a game? Does anyone in the EnWorld community live even remotely close to Medina, Ohio that would be willing to join me? Or am I destined to kill off one of the best developed PC's simply because I can't run an adventure AND play two NPC's at the same time? Help?!?! [/QUOTE]
