Hm, what nobody seems to have mentioned yet: We've all grown up. In that time I used to play 6 hours every week day and maybe 12 hours every weekend day. Now I'm happy if I can make it to 5 hours a whole week combined. If you would organize a LAN party with all my old friends from back then and all the games, I would still need to look in my calendar if I can make it there.

Not just times have changed. We have changed as well.

I'm 32, with a kid, as are most of the guys I LAN party with. We still manage to make it happen, although admittedly with quite a lot more notice than we used to need.
