It could be that AD&D2e was the current hot game that was getting all the promotion. It could be that it was more available at our local bookstore. It could be that it wasn't in shrink wrap and could be flipped through by my concerned mom before purchasing. It could be that it was the game my older brother's friends were playing. Now reflecting on it in hindsight, I probably made the wrong decision. I had no real guidance in how to play for around 5 years, and I still probably run the game "wrong." It's like how I taught myself how to play piano based on my knowledge of guitar - and my wife, the music teacher, finally told me my technique is completely off - but I'm trained in my ways for like 30 years.</blockquote>
