Fortunately (or unfortunately) I have not had to play with a ‘that guy’ yet, but I love the stories about them.

  • That guy was our GM. He called when game was supposed to start and said he would be late. Then he called again half an hour later to say he was having car trouble. Then he called again an hour and a half later to say his car was being towed and he wouldn’t make it.

    Then a girl we were all friends with tagged him and a bunch of her girlfriends in a photo album on Facebook. He was at a club one town over getting drunk with girls…

    Which is fine. I understand a young, single guy getting a last minute invite to go clubbing with a bunch of girls and prioritizing that.

    But man, we organized our lives so we could play his Rifts game that HE wanted to run. Then he stood us up and lied about where he was, then got busted lying about it, never apologized and the game never recovered. I spent a lot of time on that character.
