[QUOTE="Alarian, post: 3332068, member: 24407"] Worst: My worst experience ever was when I had just moved to a new area and joined a new game. I showed up at the GM's "house" which was in a small almost abandoned town about 30 miles outside the city I was living in and it was an old bank he was living in. As I walked in the door, I was greeted by the sight of garbage literally piled over a foot high or more in all directions (imagine not taking any trash or old furniture out of your house for 10+ years and you get the idea). There was a narrow path through the trash that lead back to the gaming table. The GM was filthy to say the least, his hands were black and covered in warty growths and as he played, he would walk around the table and put his hands on the shoulders of the players. When nature forced me to use his bathroom, I found a bathroom that hadn't been cleaned in 20+ years I'm sure. The sink was broken in half with the front half laying on the floor, and the tub was piled thick with trash. If it hadn't been for the fact that I had ridden with another player, I would have left within 10 minutes of arriving. They called me several times after the first game, but I always made excuses as to why I couldn't come back. The only thing that was cool about the whole situation, was the guys bedroom was the bank vault, with the giant safe door. Best: Wouldn't be any one player, but the best gaming experience I ever had was when I was in the Navy. Our group all worked 2nd shift and we would get together every night at 10:30pm and game until 6am Monday-Friday. Through sheer luck, the main core of our group was stationed at the same place for the almost 2 1/2 years the campaign ran. We had others come and go as their tours of duty took them elsewhere but the core 4 of us played 5 days a week for almost 2 1/2 years. Alarian [/QUOTE]
