The club I play at typically has around 10 people GMing at any one time, with around 40-50 people playing, some in several games. Of the players in the two games I currently GM, 2 people also GM; others may do so in the future. I have previously GM'd for lots of other people who also GM.

8 players in my current game (well, one moved away a couple of months ago, but I'll include her for completeness sake).

4 guys, 4 girls in the gaming group.

I DM regularly - probably every other week to 1/month since 1989 with a few breaks (I plan on taking a nice break after my current game ends this winter)

1 of the women DM's often, and has run campaigns from 1st to 10th + level in the past. Another of the women DM'd frequently as well. The other two have DM'd occasionally, but not much.

Of the 4 guys two are frequent, experienced GM's. One of them will probably be starting up a game when I wrap mine up. Another player has DM'd quite a bit in the past, and the last has DM'd a little, but by far the least of all the guys.

Another former player from the group was also a frequent DM, but works weekends (having opened his own comic shop a few years ago) so doesn't get to game much, unless its a D&D meetup at his store.

I am involved in two groups, with me being the only overlap in the groups.

In my main group, we have 10 people. I am the DM and the rest are players. One player has run games for other people, but not this group. One player, at my request, ran a game of Classic Traveller for the group for a couple sessions. Other than that, I do not think any have run games anywhere, nor do they plan on running one for this group. This is much to my regret, as I would love to play sometimes instead of running things.

In my other group, the size of the group fluxuates from as low as 4 to as many as 10. The core group of 5 has the DM who has run a campaign for the group for 20+ years. I have also run games for the group while playtesting Gaslight: Victorian Fantasy. We also had a brief run of Call of Cthulhu by one of the non-core players. The rest of them do not appear to have the desire to run a game.

2-4 depending on group. 2 males/2 women. My sister used to dm when she was much younger but I doubt she wants to do it again.

I used to play in groups of around 12 people where everyone was dm:ing in their turn different games, but I kinda got too busy to attend.

The main group (typically) meets on Saturdays and consists of 8 members. Of those 8, 5 regularly DM; 1 other member has DMed in the past, but has not done so in a while.

One of the guys from that group who DMs has a game which he runs on Sundays. As far as I know, his group consists mostly of people who are new to the idea of rpgs, and he's currently the only DM.

I am currently running a game on Wednesdays; the Wednesday group consists of 6 members (including myself.) Out of that group, 4 (including myself) regularly DM.

If it matters... Saturday's group is currently running a Palladium Heroes Unlimited game; I am running a D&D 4th Edition game on Wednesdays, and the guy who runs the Sunday game is also running D&D 4th Edition. While I do not attend the Sunday group, I have helped write some of the story for the game.
