[QUOTE="MNblockhead, post: 8641455, member: 6796661"] How do you stay on top of gaming news and participate with the wider gaming community. I don't mean your play schedule, though a lot of word-of-mouth comes from across the gaming table. I used to visit a lot more sites and hang out at my two favorite gaming stores. Current work and life demands have cut down on most of that to a minimum. Even my game sessions are pretty much 100% gaming and very little time just chatting. Currently I'm down to: [LIST] [*]I visit ENWorld on the weekend and occasional dip in during the week.
