How many simultaneous games are you involved in?

[Altamont Ravenard]

I voted 6 but let me count just to make sure

- I DM a campaign in FR
- I DM another campaign, evil, in FR
- I play in F's campaign
- I play in H's 2 campaigns
- I play in S's campaign
... yep 6, but

- I played once, solo, in another S's campaign, but I am not sure it will develop into a full blown campaign
- I'm trying to develop a non-FR campaign, not sure if it will happen.

Many moons can pass between sessions of a certain campaign, so don't think I play D&D 24/7 (although I'd really love to).

I play in a D&D campaign (usually every week) and a Silver Age Sentinels superhero one (rigorously every week).

Plus my friends and I in the SaS group are planning to start up a short-term game night at which basically we'd take turns running adventures/mini-campaigns for a month or so before the next person takes over and runs something in a totally different system. Should give us a chance to try out games that have been sitting unused on our shelves.

Given the criteria, I'm in four; two regular weekly games and two that meet once a month or so. Technically, I consider 'a game' one that meets weekly, though

I just started a second weekly session, on Mondays (regular game is on Friday), and I'm going to see how it goes. Nice players, small group, and they have a pup to play with while I'm waiting on my slow init character to go...

I have been involved in four weekly games, but that hasn't been for about five or six years now; Fri, Sat, Sun and Wed.

For a brief time of about 3-4 months I was involved in five completely different groups [totally different people, not just different campaigns with the same folks], each of which met either once a week, or every two weeks. I even had two groups back-to-back, and after playing a 4-hr session would have to drive to DM my newbies group for a 6-hr session.

I wouldn't recommend it to anybody who doesn't have A LOT of free time.

It was a lot of fun, and the variety kept me very interested. What's really great is that playing with so many different people you can witness many different play and DM styles, and it makes you a better player/DM overall because you can take the best ideas from each group.

My personal schedule has changed greatly, and in the future I don't intend to participate in more than two different groups at a time. Moderation is a good thing. Now I just play in one group, and I'm quite content. Preparations for a campaign are in the works though, and my next group of players shall know many evils before they perish!
