[QUOTE="RigaMortus, post: 765828, member: 1077"] Yeah, when I was in high school and on summer break and had no job or responsibility, my friends and I would play from morning til night, every day of the week. I'd say around 12 to 14 hours a day. One of my friends pretty much moved in for the duration of summer vacation, going home only to pick up more clothes :) Ahhhhh, those were the days. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ On a totally un-related note... Another friend of mine, whom I didn't meet until my senior year in HS, told me that his mom threw away all his original DnD books because... well I won't go into it. Let's just say he grew up in a nice Christian family :) But as he got older, his mom got more accepting of his hobby and he continued to play Dnd as well as many other RPGs. He got me into Rifts (I never knew there were other RPGs out there besides DnD at the time) and later he helped play test Magic: The Gathering. So needless to say, he helped feed my M:tG addiction too, but I'm all better now. Amazing what 12 step programs can do these days :) Sorry for the ramble, but you gnome how it is when work is dead.
