Note to self

On "de-geeking RPGs."

If anyone who plays a role-playing game is "one of us," then "de-geeking RPGs" is semantically impossible.

Someone: remind me to post this next time the topic rears its ugly head.

Oh, yes. I don't think that someone who plays role-playing games is manifestly a geek.

But a lot of people who are interested in "de-geeking RPGs" seem to think so.
