I'm much more concerned about other players realizing and respecting that important things come up after the game is scheduled. If this were to happen every week, then I think it's fair to make sure the schedule is set appropriately. But if it's an occasional work crunch because a fix needs to get out to a critical piece of software or one of the kids had to go to the emergency room or the wife had to work late and couldn't pick up the kids at day care, then my opinion of any other player who didn't cut me some slack would probably also make Eric's grandma blush.On the other end of things, I realize that life's circumstances often makes lateness happen. When it does happen, it's a good time to break out a little Fluxx, Chez Geek, or Kill Dr. Lucky. If there's a good game on, the time isn't wasted.</blockquote>
