And, yes, I realize that I’ve basically dodged the whole point of this post. :)

Right now, we’re playing on Thursday nights and/or the occasional Sunday. I’m doing mostly playtesting of new games these days, but I’ve got a D&D campaign on standby which we could switch to if you wanted to give the new edition a shot sometime. Just holler if you’re up for it, you’ve got my email address.

@Russ, that’s a good crowd for a Tuesday night.

I’ve tried ignoring the promos but I just can’t. I know to many people at work who make them to be silent.

The five of us that gathered here tonight had a conversation about the ABC promos and that we all to ignore them for the rest of the series.

Lost: Dr. Linus…

First off, let me say that I love the Ben Linus charcter more than almost any other character in the Lost pantheon (save perhaps Locke). Michael Emerson is a great actor and, prison guard instructional videos notwithstanding, I think Ben is his finest …

@Scrivener I’d totally be into it. Time management would be key, but I’m more than willing to give it a shot.

Local author/gamer Will Hindmarch (@wordwill on Twitter) was inviting me to games a while back, but I could never attend. Always ready to give it another try.

I started gaming when I was in 5th grade, with the basic D&D rules and then played AD&D, before the 2nd edition came out, in high school and into college. After my 2nd year of college, I quit, mostly because I was just too busy with other things but also because I was tired of the sort of juvenile people who were still interested in gaming. I liked the games still, but was frustrated because I felt like I’d become a different person but the only people I could find to play with still hadn’t and it was really undercutting my enjoyment. I sold all my gaming stuff a few years later when I had a financial crisis in college. Then about a year ago, I joined up with a group of men and women and played some 4th edition rules D&D, and it was really a lot of fun. I was worried that it’d be the same old dynamic, but really it wasn’t. IT was just playing a fun game with some cool people. The problem is that when you’re playing with adults, with responsibilities, it’s a lot harder to find the time to play–none of us are gonna pull allnighter gaming sessions these days, and I can’t really play on days when I’ve got my kids, etc. The game went well for a while, then we had a string of times we just couldn’t get enough people together, and then it just seems to have fizzled out. Which is a little bit sad.

If we were to restart things, would you be interested in joining a gaming group? Just throwing it out there.

@Garrett, I try to get these written within the first hour after the linear airing (so, 11pm) so I’m not always following all the threads online or rewinding my TiVo. Add to that fact that my HD TiVo is on the fritz so I didn’t rewind to make out the other numbered names. Good links though. Thanks for sharing.

@Josh, Interesting bit about Kate’s number. That whole scene seemed off to me.
