[QUOTE="IronWolf, post: 2479718, member: 21076"] Our group has been together since mid-December 2004/January 2005. We met through a mix of ways. I was looking for an every other week game that was filled with reliable players (if I only get to play every other week, I like to make sure we have a game going on). So a friend and I started looking with the idea of me starting out as DM. From there we hit the Internet (gamer classifieds here and at WotC) and met another person or two rounded out with a person from work. By the end we had 5 players and 1 DM. Early on we had one player leave, there just wasn't a mesh between the group and him and vice versa (plus he had a rather long drive to get there). He was quickly replaced with a person one of the others knew. We still have that group, but we have one getting set to move away, so we brought in another player bringing the group size to 6 + the DM. Once the one player moves we will be back down to the 5 +DM amount. I guess we are sort of a mutt group. But we are all having a good time and have become better friends along the way. We meet very reliably which makes it very nice to be able to depend on a game. [/QUOTE]
