Last minute game cancellation

flickums  wasn't able to make it to our D&D game this week, due to being seconded to Bath for work. This is two weeks in a row, and didn't want Joan (Flick's character) to miss out two sessions in a row so offered to run a one-shot.

So I spent time reading through the rules. Printed off the quickstart one-shot. Pored over the complex intrigue rules. Got everything ready.

Then a player cancelled last minute because of work.

Really don't want to run this game for just 2 players. Don't think this will work. And I'm actually rather keen on running a game that's fun after all. Don't know if I'll ever have a chance with a different group so I don't want to waste the opportunity.

Little bit miffed about that.

I mean it's not their fault. It's not anyone's fault. People have work commitments. And people have shown an interest generally. Will probably end up running this. Just a little disappointed that I invested my time in this and haven't had a game to show for it.
