"Social Graces" is not a normal part of the "Gamer" character package,
and
most Gamers don't want to pay the points for it when they could buy
"Star
Trek Trivia" or "Familiarity: Obscure Wargames" instead.
Older, more experienced Gamers may take Social Graces, but they
generally
pay for it by taking a Spouse, with the associated disadvantage "Never
has
time to actually game".
