[QUOTE="GMforPowergamers, post: 6252879, member: 67338"] I run a game every Tuesday night (a homebrew steam punk right now but we mostly do D&D) and once a month I run a Mage (owod) game. the weeks I don't run Mage we play rifts or D&D... so I play twice a week. However I will add we have lost a lot of players over the years. There was a time when we had 5-6 games a week running (not all of us in all of them) and 2 different games Saturday night in the same area... at that time we had more then thirty players/DMs today less then 2 dozen. D&D games have gotten pretty hard to get regular D&D going... our schism started in the 90's when larry ran what he then called 3e D&D (Skills and powers, Spells and Magic, and COmbat and tactics) and half of us didn't want to use the minis he was... it got worse when 3e came out and some if us upgraded and some didn't. Come around to 4e and pathfinder and everything went boom. Today I know groups (that once counted as one group) that play 2e still 2e with lots of add ons 3e with heavy house ruleing 3e/3.5 with some house rules pathfinder RAW Pathfinder with trail blazer and a boat load of house rules 4e raw so D&D games are hard to get together (and why I homebrewed a D20 steam punk game) because we don't all see eye to eye. If I want to play 4e I have to coordinate with a combo of 6 people... If I want to play 2e I only have 5 people I could do this with... and we are all busy. [/QUOTE]
