SGW in your everyday life. . .

just curious as to whether many people talk to their RL friends about playing this game or if its deemed 'uncool' to most people

personally i don't mention it to any of my friends for the second reason stated above, it is seen as 'uncool' to a lot of people it seems but i'm wondering how many people share this? i have seen others say it too but i'd like to get an overall view

i do see this game as a getaway of sorts, its kind of my guilty pleasure to talk to and game with others who appreciate the show. i also feel its a way to get to know people you wouldn't usually get to know due to social 'groupings' if you will, and have met plenty of cool people along the way, from all walks of life, and from all sorts of places

i await your responses/views etc.

yeah we haven't really grasped the concept of mass congregation since the whole 1916 rising thing

surprising that the incentive of drinking hasn't helped tho

Do you expect the meet up to be organised in a post office then?

I Would assume your all too drunk to organise it.

Used to have a friend play it, and a brother, and 4 of his friends, but generally no.

When i meet up with one or two people from the game, and i promise i will to a certain few (ashu i motherfudging love you) i may talk about the game to them, just its **Filtered**, and life has so much more excitement at the moment.
