Rereading the post I see how you can think that. I am not generally inflexible on these dates and am willing to cancel if it's important. I make that clear and have definitely missed more than a few for vacations. Vacations take priority, in that we agree. She does try her best to avoid game days as she knows it's important to me.
Vacations are also easier as they are known well in advance. More of the frustration comes, I think, when a one off event happens. For example on Monday, we got invited to a Christmas party for this weekend. This is also a D&D weekend thus conflict.
Yeah moving it off of Saturday seems to be a good idea. I just don't know how the group is going to take to that. Worth asking though.
I like that idea but my DM is pretty solid on the in person thing. If I do end up leaving the table (hopefully not) I'll pursue replacing with a virtual game I think.
I envy you haha. I have tried to get her to the table but it just isn't her thing. A different less crunchy system would probably appeal to her better. That said, maybe I can ask her to try it again.
Well I mean if you put it that way the choice is obvious but I don't think there's any ultimatums being leveled here. She would think quitting the table to be an extreme and overreacting choice.
Yeah, it seems that way. I know I am lucky to have gotten away with it so far. Changing the night it runs would be tough at this point as it works for so many other people's schedules.
I love D&D and have an on-going game that occurs twice a month on the first and third Saturday evenings of the month. The game has been going for a little over two years and I love it so much.
I am a father and husband too. Unfortunately, my wife is frustrated with having those Saturdays taken up on the schedule where she has to schedule things around them or go without me (vacations, family outings, etc). Admittedly she has done well at scheduling and should be given credit for her tolerance thus far.
Those of you who are successfully managing family schedules and gaming, what is your secret?

Damn that's pretty cool. What kinds of things can you configure? Sucks I'm stuck with the MA1 now. The last bullet would mean portrait AA on my portrait system. Be nice to use my full screen.
I am saddened to know this. Yeah that other channel looks pretty gross.
