[QUOTE="Piratecat, post: 1366201, member: 2"] I have more than two dozen incredibly good friends from all over the country that I've met solely through the RPGA. Of course, I've also gamed with some poor players - in over 300 RPGA games that's pretty inevitable - but I stay in touch with the folks who are fun, and my life is vastly more interesting thereby. I prefer "classic" games without continuing characters, but the RPGA has recently been experimenting with gutting these events by removing character personalities and interactions; other than that, I wouldn't be able to recommend them highly enough. I'm a little suspicion of Living games for some of the reasons that other folks have mentioned. My usual rule of thumb is that out of 6 games at a typical con, one will be bad, 2 will be okay, 2 will be good, and one will be amazing. I live for that amazing game, bcause it makes the occasional crappy encounter fade into the background. [/QUOTE]
