Actually D&D is my secondary game system. I primarly play/GM HERO, and I GM D20 future for the wife. I play D&D solo, with the wife GMing.

So if I were to go by percentages...
HERO 80%
D&D 10%
D20 Future 10%

We play D&D, SWD20, D20 Modern (with some GT and SC2 thrown in), C&C, and WFRP2. I hope to get a game of True20 going again soon, but currently we have nothing going with that system.

Not even close. If by 'D&D' you mean D&D3[.5]E, it's actually on my "i'm never playing that again unless there are significant and compelling mitigating circumstances". If by 'D&D' you mean the general sort of high-fantasy adventure-quest gaming that D&D has historically been about, then it's what i'm currently playing (using a mixture of Al Qadim & Arcana Evolved, plus a few other things), but is far from my first choice. It's a compromise the group can agree on--i generally prefer far fewer rules in my RPGs. Historically, most of my RPing was [A]D&D for the first 6 years, and then mostly not-D&D since then. Lots of Werewolf: the Apocalypse ,Ars Magica, and Over the Edge, and smatterings of dozens of other games.

Oops--time to go to work. Guess i'll have to talk about Iron Heroes later.
 


Almost always. The only extended game of something other than D&D I played in was d20 Modern; I'm game for a pretty wide variety of d20 and near-d20 games, and own a lot that I've never played (CoC, Mutants & Masterminds, Arcana Unearthed, True20) or have only played in PBP games (Star Wars, Wheel of Time). But I really don't think I've got the improv ability for tabletop DM-ing, and that's the only way I'd get my group to try some of them.
 

I only play D&D if its the game everyone else wants to play. Unfortunately my alternate group, which was playing Palladium Fantasy (the original) went on hiatus for six months... a year ago! :(
 

Y'know, I've participated in several of Mark's recent threads. I'm not sure what he's doing, but I find this poll to be the most interesting.

With the current results showing, that 30+% of players responding only play D&D is amazing to me...even though that accurately describes 3 of the 12 people I'm gaming with right now.

And that remaining 60+% doesn't exclude D&D players, obviously. Further proof that D&D is the 800lb gorilla of the RPG industry...

And in my eyes, further proof that some people out there need their horizons broadened! :D
 

Nope, we don't play D&D that much anymore. I much prefer to run Deadlands Classic or WHFRP now, although True20 is tempting me to use it for a post-apocalyptic and/or Fading Suns game. I'd play D&D if one of my friends wanted to run it, but I don't have any desire to run it in the forseeable future- my spare time is limited, and I'd rather play than prep for games.
