    Man I wish.

    Getting everyone to agree on a date and time for D&D is harder than any encounter you could face in-game

        Plan the activity with a smaller group than you would want initially. Then invite others to an already organized event and rely on fomo to get people to go. Works great.

        I have two small friend groups of four and in both is someone who often works weekend, so that’s always fun trying to plan something, let alone if I want to have both groups somewhere. It was honestly a miracle I could get all 6 of them in one place at the same time somewhat close to my birthday.

          I’ve found that few people can resist the call of “New York Style Cheesecake Stuffed, Chocolate Covered, Graham Cracker Rolled, Strawberries.”

          I have had friends say they put on a pound just reading the name, lol.

      You’ve got to get people to commit to a weekly slot, ad-hoc sessions lead to madness

      It’s been over a year and there are still two people that haven’t finished their damn character sheets.

        Yeah this convo is either saying they’re going to a bar which can be fun. Or they’re 18-22 and drinking is as much about buying the alcohol as it is imbibing it.

    When I was a student, a friend texted me one evening:

    “Tequila. Name of our usual bar. Now.”

    I replied “OK” and was there 20 minutes later. She was a little surprised, but learned exactly the lesson of this post that evening.

      Proximity really makes friendships better, and at least easier. Some of the best memories are made on a whim. And even with the busiest people you can have a better chance of seeing them with a spontaneous text versus a long-term plan.

    When I was a lad, it was two words, the first with a question mark, the second with a full stop

    Pint?

    Pint.
