I still have all the D&D stuff in the cabinet of wonders and I will probably keep them all too. The Dragon magazines, sad to say will have to go, but all the books, the dice, the figures, the maps, the few modules, and even I think my Basic D&D Beginners book are still in there.

I look at amusement at new rule additions now…

Even before you joined us Oblivions I’d come to the conclusion that the rules weren’t that important. They were just a framework to hang everything else on. And you can use as little as you like and bend the what you do use to shape so it all looks best.

I find the reason I don’t feel like playing much, ( though the occasional twinge is still there 😉 ) is not about rules … I could butcher any rule system and make it work … it not lack of time, though it is lacking. It is because I want to play with friends. It has become such a part of my past and of who and what I am that it’s pretty hard to put it all aside and start from scratch with new people that don’t share the same memories, the same past, the same in jokes.

Aww crap.

I really AM old.
