[QUOTE="Zelda Themelin, post: 5822665, member: 167"] I used to game in libraries. To avoid my annoying family and my friend's room that was total mess (only one where we could avoid annoying parents). So we got ourselves library's study room, playing out at open table was too noisy. Later on they started to complain we were too noisy as other people in next study-room complained. Problem with rpg:s is, that you tend to get exited and then volyme sneekily grows. We kinda realized this was not working and ended up playing lot on my place (despite annoying parents) and friend's horror-room. Well, it was cool too, but I felt sad for all those rare comics that got stepped over while they lied there amidst of used and un-used clothes on the floor. So library's are still good, if you pretend to be studiyng something. And you have generally low voice level group. I tried some bars, not really proper pubs here, though some likeness exists. But games got constantly intrupted by some drunk inching for conflict or social interaction. Or commented. We also sometimes played on public transports like trains, yeh I had really thick skin. Generally speaking you put yourself somewhat to fire whenever you step out from comforts of the house. You get intruptions. Curious, angry, "too much noice", jerky, need to be included somehow. Study rooms kinda work. Otherwise public game is like public singing when you don't really sound that good/too weird. Ah also with librearies there was the closing time. You had to be out before 20:00. When we continued game at buss stops and missed couple of busses maybe. [/QUOTE]
