…if you stay up all night gaming?

Personal logo Bobgnar Supporting Member of TMP06 Jun 2018 12:59 p.m. PST

no

Micman Supporting Member of TMP06 Jun 2018 1:09 p.m. PST

yes

ZULUPAUL Supporting Member of TMP06 Jun 2018 1:16 p.m. PST

Well I don't stay up all night gaming so it's a moot question for me.

Please delete me06 Jun 2018 1:20 p.m. PST

No, as long as it isnt in our two bedroom apartment. She does complain that I've taken over a room for minis and boardgames however….

Personal logo T Callahan Supporting Member of TMP06 Jun 2018 1:35 p.m. PST

She closes the bedroom door and goes to sleep. Next morning she'll ask what time did I come to bed and did you have fun last night.

Dynaman878906 Jun 2018 1:54 p.m. PST

No, but it will never come up since I don't game at night since my twenties.

The Beast Rampant06 Jun 2018 2:08 p.m. PST

THEN: Stayed up all night game gaming

NOW: Have a spouse

Set A and Set B do not intersect.

Daithi the Black06 Jun 2018 2:31 p.m. PST

My wife would be thrilled if I went out all night gaming. Or drinking with the guys. Or whatever, as long as I am socializing. She thinks I need to get out more o.0

DisasterWargamer Supporting Member of TMP06 Jun 2018 2:44 p.m. PST

Very supportive

Gone Fishing06 Jun 2018 3:18 p.m. PST

Only daytime gaming for me, so the issue doesn't really come up. (Don't think she'd mind if I did, though.)

JimSelzer06 Jun 2018 3:20 p.m. PST

she did now she is gone (never married just lived with)

nnascati Supporting Member of TMP06 Jun 2018 3:34 p.m. PST

No, I'm in bed before she is.

wolvermonkey06 Jun 2018 3:38 p.m. PST

Not at all. Usually right there gaming with me.

Personal logo etotheipi Sponsoring Member of TMP06 Jun 2018 3:49 p.m. PST

If I stay up all night gaming, she is there keeping me awake.

wrgmr106 Jun 2018 4:03 p.m. PST

Not going to happen.

Dukewilliam06 Jun 2018 4:17 p.m. PST

Anything that keeps me from groping her is ok in her book.

Cacique Caribe06 Jun 2018 4:33 p.m. PST

Nope.

Dan

Phil Hall06 Jun 2018 4:46 p.m. PST

No because she will be right there with me.

Berzerker7306 Jun 2018 6:30 p.m. PST

Nope

Bunkermeister Supporting Member of TMP06 Jun 2018 7:45 p.m. PST

My wife is letting me build a new house so I can continue to wargame at home in my new purpose built war room.

Gentlemen, you can't fight in here, this is the war room.

Tgerritsen Supporting Member of TMP06 Jun 2018 8:45 p.m. PST

She would always care, but she wouldn't mind.

Old Contemptibles06 Jun 2018 9:49 p.m. PST

No. Done it before will do it again. She could care less. She supports my hobby.

Personal logo Doctor X Supporting Member of TMP06 Jun 2018 10:39 p.m. PST

Nope.

advocate06 Jun 2018 10:42 p.m. PST

I don't do that anymore.

jsmcc9107 Jun 2018 4:50 a.m. PST

She wouldn't care, but I need to find people local to game with :)

Personal logo Legion 4 Supporting Member of TMP In the TMP Dawghouse07 Jun 2018 5:12 a.m. PST

I'm single … no one cares ! But my dog ! evil grin

21eRegt07 Jun 2018 5:48 a.m. PST

She is very supportive but I'm too old to game all night.

Roderick Robertson Fezian07 Jun 2018 9:43 a.m. PST

My wife stays up later than me. She's on "Musician Time".

Patrick Sexton Supporting Member of TMP07 Jun 2018 9:50 a.m. PST

She would be fine with it (she really likes my friends, just don't tell them that). However none of us can stay up all night so it is a moot point.

Oberlindes Sol LIC Supporting Member of TMP07 Jun 2018 1:11 p.m. PST

It rarely happens, but when it does, my wife doesn't mind. Actually, it rarely happened even when I was a college student. Games rarely ran past 2 a.m. even then.

14th NJ Vol07 Jun 2018 3:45 p.m. PST

Nope, she's cool with it.

COL Scott ret12 Jun 2018 9:14 p.m. PST

She does not prefer it. I work nights "normally" and often go on camping trips (mentoring youth) so when I can sleep in my own bed at night I do so, the benefits seem worth it.

Rudysnelson25 Jun 2018 6:45 p.m. PST

No, I played in a 10,000 casting Napoleonic battle at Fort Hood on my honeymoon. 40 years ago and we are still together.

Old Wolfman28 Jun 2018 7:26 a.m. PST

I don't do the whole night,I need to rest after a long day's worth of gaming.
