¿Question #1493?
Blackwind: Have you ever set up a game multiple times when there is no one to play?

Woelf: To play them solo, many, many times.
Varduk: Not that I will admit to.
nyscouse: Used to with wargames. Kinda sad.
ajax013: no, get a life.
fatum: Off course, sometimes to see how to place the cards and extra's (especially with larger games), sometimes to find good combos or starting positions, and sometimes just for the cheer fun of it, looking at an unplayed but ready board has something ZEN over it :)
jajax: yep
ottawa_adam: No.
hob69: Not multiple times, no, but I have set things up and they've sat around a while - Mr. Jack, for example.
sk8rat12: Yes, Heroscape
smittenkitten: Yes. There's something fun about setting games up.
Darilian: I NEVER set up game and then 'hope' someone will play, unless I'm giving a demo at a con. Then, its my JOB to get others to play. I'm usually successful then- but then, I LOVE the games that I demo.
valkray: ...and the wife just rolls her eyes...
El Hidalgo: Yes but years of intensive psychotherapy and electric shock treatments have me in the single digits now!
