I'm wondering if anyone else has had something similar happen in their game?We have a small group, four people, but we've been playing together for about 10 years. We try to play once a week, but sometimes real life interfers. Most of the times we don't play, it is because one particular person can't make it, usually because of work. Since it is a small group, we hate to play when everyone can't make it because we don't want to leave anyone behind.So recently, the other three people in the group -- myself included -- decided to start playing another game on the weekends when our fourth couldn't make it. Our four-member group is playing D&D, so for the other game we decided to play Traveller d20. Me and one of the other players had played Traveller together before, so we figured it would be easy to us to play. And since the T20 rules are so similar to 3E D&D, we figured the other person could catch on pretty quick.Anyway, this has been going on since the first of the year. We play D&D if all four can get together, and T20 if only three of us can get together. This weekend, we were playing D&D for the first time in three weeks. We are running the "Speaker in Dreams" module.So the group goes into a bar. Someone asks if they have been in this bar before. I'm the DM, and I tell them yes. "So they know us here.""Yeah, the barkeep recognizes you."One of the T20 players asks, "Do they know us by our real names, or by our aliases."Everyone looks at her with a puzzled expression, even me."What?""Do they know us, or do they know our false identities?" she asks."You don't have a false identity," I said."Sure I do, Martha Stewart."While the others all start laughing, I realize what she's talking about. In our T20 game, the players are traveling by ship using false identities, and Martha Stewart is the alias her character is traveling under."Wrong game," I tell her."I knew I was going to get these two games confused," she said, turning red.Anyone else playing in multiple games ever get your games and/or characters confused?</blockquote>
