Oh, sure, the tablet's here to stay, until they figure out a way to mold a computer onto a flexible display only.25 mm thick. Then where will you be, with your over weight clumsy tablet that you can't even roll up and use as a straw?
I think the allure of everyday games is that they offer a world with more control and less permanent consequences. I mean, if your SIM house burns down, you just build another one or restore from save. No biggie.
Is totally cool. I think it was started by military re-enactors (running around shooting blanks in the wood: Bleah!) but having targets and such is what appealed to me. I'd been doing pistol competitions up until then so related to it, as well as sporting clays (different stations with clays coming from unknown locations). Much more fun than plain paper targets.
I've only seen this in Florida but having friends who did re-enacting, may have been more visible to me. Haven't heard of such shoots out here in New Mexico.
Only did that once. Got to where I could reload without looking, on the run. Used it in a lot of service gear run-and-gun competitions. Loved WWII category; web gear was pretty minimal and the guys in German gear mostly had bolt actions. Learned to stage en blocks on my harness gear instead of belt pockets.

Wait, I have to take up sports in order to be promiscuous? Oh HELL no! I'm not getting up outa' my comfey chair to play some stupid game with a ball.
