I have, sort of, done something similar in the past when trying to diversify a set of roleplaying game-based trivia questions for SUTEKH. My writing partner and I didn't want to have all our questions be drawn from D&D and the World of Darkness! We also had to balance "challenging" against "obscure" and "too old-school for younger members to know about", of course.

Still . . . Amber Diceless, Tunnels & Trolls, and Cthulhutech, but not Call of Cthulhu and GURPS? That's some epic absent-mindedness. ;)

Amber Diceless is my 2nd favourite RPG. I played it for 3 years, and it taught me a lot about how to DM.

Tunnels and Trolls? Well, remember all those solo gamebooks they produced back in the eighties?

Cthulhutech was a game suggested by someone in my first attempt at this poll - that's how a few games I forgot got added. I just forgot about Warhammer and GURPS and CoC.

I find the numbers very interesting indeed - just above 50% playing 4E, a solid whack (38%) still playing 3E, and then diminishing numbers elsewhere.

Cheers!
 

I do not now, nor have I ever played a wide variety of rpgs. Mostly D&D (in most incarnations) Deadlands, M&M and a bit of star wars and the like.

It's interesting how many different RPGs people play. I mean, I play a wide variety of boardgames (I've played over 200), but RPGs? Well, I've played over twenty different ones, but I've only really played campaigns with about five (D&D, Star Wars, Amber, Marvel Super Heroes and James Bond), and currently - and for the foreseeable future - I play only two RPGs: D&D and Star Wars.

That's counting all editions of D&D as one, of course! :)

Most of the RPGs came in the days I was at School and Uni. After that... Star Wars and D&D. Mostly D&D.

Cheers!

I think I'm quite the exception to the standard - I've played at least five to ten sessions (so short campaigns if you will) of at least 80 different RPGs.
 

I'm currently running two Pathfinder Beta campaigns: Rise of the Runelords (about to end #4, paused because of RL scheduling problems) and Legacy of Fire (just 2 sessions).

We also have a randomly scheduled game of Labyrinth Lord with rotating DMs, and I'm about to start playing in a 4e game, but our main game has consisted of Paizo Adventure Paths since I started DMing.
 

Recently Finished: Epic 7 year Hackmaster 4th Edition campaign.

Recently Quit: 4E (various reasons that I won't thread jack with)

Currently Playing: Aces and Eights (Western RPG from Kenzer) and Castles and Crusades (Troll Lord Games)

Pining For: Hackmaster Basic and Advanced Hackmaster

I'm running Swords & Wizardry, the 0e D&D 'retro-clone'. B-)

Recently I've run Basic D&D (Moldvay rules), Labyrinth Lord, and C&C.
