I first played 3.5 in high school one-on-one with my best friend (who I’ll call C). We also played once with one other friend of ours (who I’ll call K) and a couple times with K and two others. I think it’s safe to consider that all the same group, since it was always C DMing and me playing, sometimes with the addition of a few other people.4e came out in my Senior year of high school. C invited me to play the new edition with a couple of friends she had met at the LGS, with one of them DMing. That campaign went all through that year and the summer before I left for college and is still one of my fondest D&D memories.Freshman year in college I tried DMing 4e for two friends, which lasted about 3 sessions before ending in a TPK (and I thought I was going easy on them...)Most of college I was too busy LARPing Vampire: the Requiem to do much D&D. But Junior year there was a huge snow storm that shut everything down for two weeks. I lived on campus, and the housing there had its own generator, so my place was one of the few with power, so a group of about 4 other people sheltered there with me and my room mate during the storm and the 6 of us played D&D every single day those two weeks. Another one of my fondest D&D memories.Senior year, the 5e playtest came out, and I ran it for another group, which included my roommate who I had played with during the snowpocalypse but was otherwise different people.The last semester of that year I did an internship program working with a couple of theater companies back home, and during that time I ran the 5e playtest for C, K, and our other two friends from high school again. So, that probably counts as the same group. Then when 5e came out, we transitioned to that, losing one player and gaining another. And when Curse of Strahd came out I ran that for the same group, again minus one player and plus anotheAt one point I tried to run a 4e game for C, my partner, and two other friends of ours, and another time I tried to run a 4e game for my partner and two other other friends of theirs. Neither lasted more than one session.For about 6 months or so I played in an online group of folks from my partner’s sibling’s Discord (I say “their discord” but they don’t run it. Just have a lot of friends on it who play D&D together.) I played in two different campaigns with those folks, but there was enough player crossover between them that I think it’s reasonable to count it as the same group.My current (but on hold) group consists of my partner, their sibling, C, and my parents.My partner and I had also until recently been playing in a game run by K with another couple, one of whom was the new player in my Curse of Strahd campaign. But that game is in limbo right now due to a combination of the pandemic and the other couple being in the process of separating. My partner, K, and I still want to play together, and one of the others might end up sticking with us, but definitely not both, and we might try to add another player or two whenever that happens.I’m probably forgetting something, but that seems fairly comprehensive.</blockquote>
