[QUOTE="Grand_Director, post: 3712782, member: 11847"] When I moved from Greenwich to Hamden I left my group about an hour away and it didn't make sense to drive that distance every week. So I ended up putting out a call for players on this board and it worked well. I gave all the new players the same goal and went around the table hoping they would show me what they could do on their own in pursuit of the goal. What I found out that night was that my new group liked the game game to be a little more on rails then I was used to running. "acting" was right out. But I adapted and we had a great group and I made real friends. Then I moved from Hamden to Manchester when I bought a home and found myself in the same situation. This time when I got the new group together I just put them into the same situation and let them go. I didn't really give them a choice, but then after dealing with the situation they took it as a reason to stick together and we are still playing the same game. These guys are my friends now and the dynamics worked themselves out during the game and I adapted. I will say that each group brought me in contact with some of the best people I have ever met, so i am really lucky. There have been one or two that didn't work out, but it has been a go experience all around. [/QUOTE]
