[QUOTE="NewJeffCT, post: 3712630, member: 10784"] After several years of not being able to game regularly, my wife finally gave me permission to game again, as long as it was at our house (my wife does not game, but because of family and work reasons, it really does have to be at my place) We also recently moved to another part of Connecticut and the guys in my old gaming group are all over an hour drive away. So, I put out some requests for gamers on here, the Wizards boards, etc and have actually been pleasantly surprised at the number of responses I've gotten. And, most of the respondees have been guys with families in my age range - so, hopefully they are responsible enough to show up regularly! (and, then they go announce 4E when I'm about to hopefully get into my first 3E/3.5 campaign!!!) But, nobody in this group really knows anybody (to my knowledge) - and, I know sometimes it takes a little while for personalities to mesh and for the group to gel and to get everybody onto the same page. Any tips on how to accomplish that? I'm likely going to be the starting DM - if things go okay in the beginning, I'll stick to DMing. But, otherwise, we might alternate. Thanks! [/QUOTE]
