[QUOTE="Man in the Funny Hat, post: 4968473, member: 32740"] Back in '76 it was, when I was a high school freshman and Scott Anderson, a sophmore who I really barely knew at the time, stopped me in the hallway and said he had this new game and would I want to go to his house that afternoon to try it out. He ran the game for perhaps a year or so for 4 or 5 players. He overheard some guys talking about D&D at a table while he was working at Pizza Hut and wound up joining their campaign as a player. Then I joined their campaign as a player because I just couldn't get enough D&D (still can't really). Then they just merged campaigns and we had a huge group. Typically there'd be 8 of us at the table but on occasion we'd have as many as 10 or even 12 - and most of us ran two PC's. Eventually I took over as DM and started a new campaign, probably mid to late '80's and with a few exceptions I've been Screen Monkey ever since. Last time he and I gamed together was probably 2002 when I moved to California. [/QUOTE]
