[QUOTE="Blue, post: 7005147, member: 20564"] Can't say unbroken from 1982 until now. The longest running campaign I was in was AD&D (1st) when I joined. We went to AD&D 2nd pretty smoothly, though adopting Skills and Powers and the other Character's Option books changed a lot. It migrated to 3ed, where the DM went apeshit over things like dwarves could be wizard and how to fit that into the decade of history. There's a good chance we bypassed that 1307 games - for one section of years we'd play several times a week with different parties in the same world. But without a count I'm more than happy not to challenge Silver Moon's record. After a long gap, one of the player ran the world advanced many decades with most of the core original people (including the DM) using 4e rules, with the most legendary characters from the original campaign as Exarchs and such. While I've noodled with converting some of those characters to 5e, that core group doesn't have the ability to meet. Time, distance, what have you. Some of us tried online in a new setting, but that didn't last. Flipping to longest I've run, I ran back-to-back campaigns in the same setting, 5 years and 7 years respectively. Mostly the same crew but all new characters. The campaign world advanced 80 years in order to refresh it, but also to allow time for some of the things they did from the first campaign to have large effects. [/QUOTE]
