[QUOTE="StupidSmurf, post: 2588921, member: 35893"] Why do I still game, after all these years (started in 1978)? Hmmm... good question. 1. It's a good outlet for my imagination, but in a way that has no pressure (e.g. no deadlines, no editors). 2. I enjoy talking. As a DM, talking is mandatory. 3. I love telling stories. Gaming helps. 4. It gives me something in common with my kids. 5. I love fantasy/sf/horror. Gaming feeds that animal too. 6. Although I don't do it to meet women, I should point out that I met my wife at GenCon. ;) Long convoluted story short, she loved the RPGA Cthulhu tourney I wrote, wanted to meet the author. Met me, became friends. Abou ten years later, started dating, now married! :D 7. I love killing things, and doing it in real life is frowned upon in polite society unless you're in the armed forces (and even then, there has to be a war on). [/QUOTE]
