[QUOTE="Ghostknight, post: 1628433, member: 15338"] Heh, I also started off on that white box set- back in 1979. Back then everyone thought we were really strange playing this really strange game- especially since the only shop carrying roleplaying stuff was a book store that also sold esoterics! My mother heard the horror stories going around and spent a lot of time worrying that I was going to get "too involved" and go mad. When Mazes and Monsters (the book) came out, she bought it for me to read as she thought it was an actual incident and was trying to get me to stop playing. (Yeah, she knows that flat out forbidding me would have resulted in me DEFINITELY carrying on :) ) [/QUOTE]
