We also have a message board where the DM or host posts the date for the next game, the venue is organised and people post whether they can come or not. This is also where people can work out if they need lifts home or not. Also, at the end of each session I tenatively ask people whether they can commit to next week...or if not when is the next best date. But we game saturday nights, as it's usually the best night that suits most of us. We play at a church hall that I hire for the occassion ($20 for the night) and is in a location that we can all get to. There's also quite a number of take away shops around so people can get dinner. We game from about 5pm until around 10.30, but the dice don't start rolling until around 6pm. There is an understanding that the "regular time" to show up is around 5, this gives us enough time to get dinner and eat. We start playing usually when the DM finishes eating. I consider it good if we start dice rolling just after six, though I sometimes have to crack the whip to get them moving. But sometimes we can be there from about 4pm and finish early. But believe me, organising a regular meeting is about the hardest thing in existance to do.</blockquote>
