You know you've become a D&D addict when you can stack your dice more than 12 high. Especially including the non d6 dice. And when the entire group agree that shaking the table at that point is Not Funny At All.

I was in my 30's and the youngest in our crowd was mid 20's when we began. We played for 7 or 8 years on Fridays, because Saturday was Dr. Who and we had our priorities *smirk*. Magic: The Gathering, divorces, and family demands killed the group, but, damn! we had fun while it lasted.

Now my kids are RPGers too, and #1 son helped DM at DragonCon a few years ago for Imagine (sort of a descendant of D&D) with the developers.

Heh....
Okay, lets see...*counts* Does...10 6 sided die, 20 mini six sided die, 3 30 sided die (for characters who are too high level any more to use a standard 20 sided for damage) , 2 100 sided die, 8 pairs of ten sided die, and 5 each of 4, 20, 12, and 8 sided die count?

Saturday was Dr. Who and we had our priorities *smirk*.

Lol! yep, gotta have those. Our group was sort of the opposite that way--most of them were in college except myself and my best friend, so we would end up in all nighters that lasted from Friday evening until someday Sunday...that was eventuaklly replaced by Live Action when White Wolf started their official LARPS, and then I eventually drifted away from the scene...then moved to Texas, where LARP ended up being all I did...(Discoverd that one must work to pay bills...^^;)

But yeah, RPG is a heck of a time to have fun....:D

Very cool about your son...:D When I was younger (oh, listen to me...lol), I wanted to do that sort of thing, but didnt have the resources or contacts...ah well...:D

All nice and marbled too...I liked the marbled ones...

I haven't counted mine in years, and now my kids have borrowed them, off and on, so no telling how many I still have. I loved the sparkly dice!

That son isn't interested in game development, just playing. Our group's dream was to rent a house boat (we dreamed big) and spend the whole weekend with drinks and food gaming our little hearts out. Since we were all grown and married, we seldom were able to play past 2:00 am.

I have friends who are LARPers, and I love hearing their war stories.
