Default Re: Keeping frequently losing players happy?

We have guys in our regular games that keep showing, and keep spewing. They lose big most of the time, and occasionally win. Sometimes it almost hurts to watch them. But, they keep showing, and they keep having fun. As long as you keep the game friendly, and fun, they will keep coming.

Buying a bit of beer as the host is cool to do and all, but you are in college, and beer gets expensive. If you aren't taking a rake (other than yo mad skillz) then don't feel obligated to give out freebies. just have a few snacks, chips and such, for the taking and call it good.

Finding more players is always good too, players telling friends and all should do the trick there. Just tell guys to spread the word. Don't advertize your game online, or with flyers. That's just begging for trouble. Especially if you are in a Dorm.
