[QUOTE="cmanos, post: 2953193, member: 25472"] My 2 fish... 1) ask if one of the other players wouyld like to DM and hand over half the group to them. Perhaps work togethger as DM's to run the same plot, but different aspects...the party splits up to accomplish two things. 2) Split the group and play every other week with each group. Again...run the same campaign with different agendas for each party. Personally I see anything more than 5 as a pain to run with. Our current group is 7 strong + GM and it gets a little bogged down. The GM wants another player. If it does come to that point, I would seriously consider splitting off and running a game myself. I just really don't like DM'ing or playing in a group so large. Ask your players how they feel about it. If they feel it is too unwieldy and cumbersome, ask them if they would consider splitting the group. Then again, if D&D is just the vehicle to get all y'all together to socialize, don't worry so much about not getting much done and have fun. [/QUOTE]
