Not only is this a fascinating social experiment looking at the make up of a game groups but will be very helpful for my project. I'll come back and tell you what I am working on Monday.

Thanks so far for all the great information so far!

There is still time to participate so keep them coming.

Wait! If we have your attention, how should one pronounce the words Eladrin & Ghaele? I mussst knoowwww!!!



But really... how?

('Cause I like El'drin & Gale like a wind... but I'd rather know the correct way)

I'm always a bit suprised at the age and professional seriousness of ENWorld posters in general.

Errr... which sounds like a bit of a backhanded compliment at best, but I'm actually just sayin'.

How long has your group been playing together?

On and off for about 7yrs


What are the ages, genders, and professions of the people in your group?

(M)Me: 31/ programmer
(M)Player A: 28/ system analyst
(F)Player B: 26/Project Manager
(M)Player C: 19/college freshman
(M)Player D: 17/high school

What edition are you playing?
None right now, we have been playing Changeling the Lost since ending 4e and if/when we go back to a d20 game it will probably be Star Wars Saga ed. They actually like SW Saga ed. better than 3.5 or 4e as far as WotC games go, and I think the latest SW books have blown D&D out of the water as far as bang for buck.

My players wanted to either switch back to 3.5 or play Castles & Crusades for our D&D fix. As of right now, I will try to run 4e again for them in the distant future...but I played a game and wasn't to impressed myself.

How long has your group been playing together?

I guess I'd trace my current group back to late 2000 / early 2001, at the advent of D&D. Three of us had been playing games together since the late 90's.

What are the ages, genders, and professions of the people in your group?

4 males, 2 females, all between mid-20's and late 30's. Professions are lawyer, engineer, security, student, retail management and video journalist.

What edition are you playing?

4th Edition D&D is our game of the moment, with Mutants & Masterminds and Call of Cthulhu waiting on the side. I don't really have an interest in DMing earlier editions of D&D at this time.
