[QUOTE="khantroll, post: 5455073, member: 95652"] I have one. My gaming group was composed, more or less, of my co-workers. All of us our guys in our 20s or 30s, and all IT professionals. I have a best friend who never really got it, despite my numerous attempts to include him. Well, one night about two months ago, one of my player's canceled because he wanted to take his girlfriend out to celebrate something. I called the other three players, and they said that they didn't care. We get to work, I unlock the door, and begin quickly setting up. A massive thunderstorm begins outside, and soon my friend and his girlfriend show up. They had been trying to get back across town to their apartment when the crazy storm hit, and they stopped there to get out of the blinding rain. About five minutes later, the player that canceled shows up with his girlfriend and her 14 year old daughter for the same reason. I tell them that they are welcomed to hang around, but we're going to game. After 30 minutes, they all decide to join in to pass the time. The storm slackens about an hour later, and nobody notices. Two months later, and I think it is officially safe to say my gaming group, which once comprised four computer nerds, now includes another computer nerd, his whole foods specialist girlfriend, a female department store manager, and her fourteen year old daughter. All because of a dark and stormy night ;) [/QUOTE]
