I had a college professor that teaching was his fourth career, he was in his 90s. He started the first class of each term with “I’m not going to remember any of your names. I’m old. My brain can only hold so much. If I put your names in my brain, something else will fall out. It might be my wife’s birthday, it might be that I need to take about a hundred pills a day. Either of those, and I’m dead by next week.”
It’s so hard for me to remember peoples names. I gotta associate something they do with what their name sounds like to stand a decent chance. It’s honestly nothing personal either. I’ll remember everything else you say and do but for some reason, not your name.
Simply have scheduling conflicts so you’ll forget even how to roll a die
Is it me or once again, DnD is the issue instead of the people?
This is why I play rule light, I can’t remember my player’s name, so a complicated rule heavy game like D&D? Nope
Not sure if convention DM or just has REALLY understanding friends. :D
