I am currently DMing two different gaming groups, each of which has 6 players (for 7 total including me). Now one of these groups appears about to grow to 8 players (9 total). I can't think of any reason to discourage this except for the fact that people don't seem to have groups that big.
Has anyone ever DM'd or played in a group of 8+ players? Are there potential pitfalls I should be concerned about? Everyone in the group is willing to try it, but we are all a little wary. We can't come up with a logical reason for the wariness; we just know that a group of 8 players is rare.
Stories/assurances/warnings appreciated!
