What was your most impactful RPG session? #RPGaDAY2017

What was your most impactful RPG session? #RPGaDAY2017

Was it the time Ted Cabeen saved roleplaying (for me) by facilitating Fiasco at a wedding?

Or, was it the time Jason Morningstar ran The Tribunal at Camp Nerdly, handing me Mouse and opening a world of larps?

Or, was it Keeping the Candles Lit with, oh my, Mo Jave, Anna Kreider, and Patty Kirsch, facilitated by James Stuart at Dreamation?

The first had a range of emotion and plot -- that is, it was alternatively happy and sad, with a plot that made some semblance of sense. The second ... I was probably not OK in, and wound up not sleeping. My affect changed dramatically during that game, as I became someone who could not affect her world. The last ... I'm not sure I've ever cried that much, and for sure not around near strangers. It's about the darkest of subjects: jewish women in WW2 on the run from the nazis, doing what they must.

It's got to be one of those, but I cannot tell from here which one had a largest impact. They are measured on altogether too different scopes.
