[QUOTE="Man in the Funny Hat, post: 8552005, member: 32740"] Holmes Basic: 1976, (1 year), Technically, maybe two years, going well into 1977 and beyond before we obtained the AD&D PH and we had more than just monster stats for AD&D rules. AD&D (1E): 1977 to 1989, 2008-2022 (26 years) Those are just the ACTIVE years. In a sense, I never really stopped playing 1E, which would make it 45 years now. I resumed actively playing/working with it after WotC rudely and precipitously dumped 3E for 4E. AD&D (2E): 1989 to 2000 (11 years) While it was the current edition. Pretty much set entirely aside after 3E and have never gone back to it. D&D (3.xE): 2000 to 2022 (22 years) 3E was very good, but has always competed with 1E for top spot in my heart. D&D (5E): 2019 to 2022 (3 years) Only as a player. I have no interest in learning it well enough to DM it. I'll DM 3E or 1E instead. [/QUOTE]
