^ Not as many as you think. I only know 2-3 people from PG who live in Grw.
I highly doubt entrance fee was the issue. Besides that how can you spend meet-ups that last for hours without gaming? Sure there's chit-chat and all that but that just doesn't cut it.
No disrespect, but all the people who make lame excuses are total douchebags because I came all the way from another city for this meet-up. It's the dedication that matters, nothing else.
