I would have to say I'm getting enough action, but more is always good. ;)

Every other week, I GM Star Wars D20, occasionally switching to one-shots and mini-arcs of other games as they come out or grab my attention (I am severely mercurial in this regard).

On the alternate weeks, one of my players runs D&D (was running M&M, but that ended...with a bang).

And once a month, Pirate Cat and I take turns running a Pulp Heroes game. I GMed the first two sessions, and next month will be his second GM stint.

Throw in several conventions a year, and the occasional "spontaneous game" when friends drop in...whew! I'm exhauseted just thinking about it.

I game regularly, on Monday nights, although I'm not sure if I'll be able to roll the dice as the resident DM after this Monday, since I foresee my players looking at me in horror, tearing my arms off, and then beating me to death with the bloody stumps.:)

Of course, isn't that the sign of really good DMing?

Heh, it really can't be a TOTAL party kill unless you bite the dust, too, right? :)
 

I play in a weekly game which will be switching from DnD to CoC d20 really soon. I would like to play in three weekly games DnD CoC & Ork.
 


Between my six-hour tabletop session every three weeks or so, and two two-hour Neverwinter Nights campaign sessions each week, I get more than enough gaming action.

Now, if those state layoffs due to the budget crisis come through, I may be forced to game more...
 

I game regularly - usually once a week, though the average is probably closer to 3 times a month. I get to play AND GM, and I implore every DM who does not regularly run a PC to wheedle, cajole, con, plan, and scheme to get their chance to do so, at least on a monthly or bimonthly basis. Even if GM'ing is your first love, it has always seemed to me to be a factor of "gamer upkeep" to get a chance to experience each side of the GM screen. The added experience does your perspective a world of good, and also in my experience helps to stave off burnout.

Game on! :)

Considering that he has a character in the game, he'll probably have his mage be the only one to be NOT completely eviscerated. :rolleyes:
 


I had to mark 'Other'. My group used to get together once a month and play for 6-8 hours. If this had continued I would have voted 'I play RPGs occasionally, and am getting enough gaming action.'

The guy I share the DM duties with suffered a severe economic set back a few weeks ago (i.e. he is getting laid off in the middle of May). He is busy looking for jobs while trying to save as much $$ as he can before his last day. So, we have not had a session since late February.

I currently keep myself busy by working on my city adventure, but I am beginning to miss playing/DMing. I hope he gets a job soon and the sessions start back up.

I have thought about posting in the Gamers seeking Gamers forum, but I would hate to get started with a new group and have the old one start again. I doubt I would have enough time to devote to two groups.

Ah, such is life: sometimes up, sometimes down.
 

Heh. Eeeeevil. As in the fru-its of the devil.

Sorry, long day. Oh and I haven't really had a group available for 6 months at least.
:(

I can sympathize.
