One of my favorite hobbies is tabletop role-playing games, where we all sit around a table and roll dice and make up characters and stories that happen to them. It's a big thing for me, it captures my imagination and helps me think creatively, and it's an awesome way to get together with people and laugh. It's been such an involving pursuit over the last five years that we've actually
developed our own world to play in.
I want to game about once a week, steadily, and bounce ideas off of people between sessions. The group we have going right now is a bunch of really great people, and I think we have the best time of any group so far, but they just don't have time for that. We meet every other week, closer to once-a-month on average with cancellations, and there's no communication during the week. I find myself thinking up more game ideas than I'll ever be able to use, and characters that will probably never make it to the game table. I've actually started taking notes on what happened at the last game, because I've had so many ideas by the time we have another session, that I've forgotten all about what we were actually doing.
It's probably a bit of a pipe dream to be able to play as much as I want to. It's hard to find people that really want to get involved in someone else's creation, no matter how much liberty's given with it. Once a week doesn't SEEM like a ridiculous amount of time, though.
