Is your best friend a gamer? Or are many of your good friends gamers?

peterx Supporting Member of TMP20 May 2017 7:43 p.m. PST

Sorry, the TMP bug struck.

Not sure who I'd identify as my "best friend." Lots of good people out there. Gamers and reenactors make up my closest friends. Rarely get close to anyone I worked with.

So a qualified, "yes."

No, she isn't

Cacique Caribe20 May 2017 9:54 p.m. PST

I'm with David, she isn't. I mean, mine isn't.

Yes, she is.

My wife occasionally games with me (mainly board games), and I have a number of friends and co-workers (who are also friends) who game (wargames and board games).

My best friend, my wife, will do basing for me, but does not game.
My gaming group are my other best friends. Some of us also golf together.

Ragbones21 May 2017 9:12 a.m. PST

She is not.

He was but then he died.

If we are including spouses, yes, she games some things. D&D, fantasy battles, flying and some ships. She has a good eye for tactics.

KSmyth21 May 2017 4:38 p.m. PST

Leaving aside my wife and my dogs, yes absolutely. I have a small group of friends who game in one form or another, but we typically have something else in common too, for example a love of baseball.

Private Matter21 May 2017 5:40 p.m. PST

Outside of family, my closest friend is a wargamer but he and most of my other good friends live on the wrong side of the pond. (although I had a good game with them on Saturday)

Chuckaroobob21 May 2017 7:42 p.m. PST

I thought about this a couple years ago, and about 99% of my friends are gamers.

dilettante Supporting Member of TMP21 May 2017 8:18 p.m. PST

My best friend (a guy) is indeed a gamer.

Dwindling Gravitas21 May 2017 11:41 p.m. PST

No.
