Which sounds most like your style

I know this is a tiny sample size, but after 8 attempts the pattern is pretty clear. When I keep the setup simple, I actually follow through.

My current rule is simple: if it takes less than 5 minutes to prepare, I am much more likely to keep doing it

surprised more people aren't choosing Co-op night. It seems like the practical answer. A little friction removed goes a long way

I picked Tabletop session, mostly because it feels easiest to live with. I would test it for 5 days before deciding

Surprised more people aren't choosing Solo run. It seems like the practical answer. I care less about the perfect answer and more about repeatability

I wish more posts had this much context. A little friction removed goes a long way. This is why house rules need a constitution

This depends heavily on budget, time and personality. It reminds me of a very specific conversation near a neighborhood park. I can already hear the menu music

The kindness in this post is lovely. The weekend version is even more interesting. The real boss fight is finding a night everyone is free

Solo run got my vote. The other choices are good, but this one fits my week. That is where the boring checklist helps

I picked Solo run, mostly because it feels easiest to live with. I would write it down before changing anything else
