Not a freakin' chance. I had enough trouble with once a fortnight. It takes time for me to think things through for each session, not to mention prepare.

Only you'd have time for that, Crothian. And then you're post count'd suffer... :D

Gladly. Heck, I'd run a game almost every night of the week, probably. I used to do that back in highschool during summer vacation. Just about every day and every night, all summer long. I never used prewritten adventures and never prepared ahead of time. (I still rarely do the latter, actually).

Some games we'd get tired of, some ran for ages. One in particular lasted years. I think that if you're creative enough, it's no problem at all to sustain a game like that. Nowadays people are working or in college, so we've got to take what time we have. I can't shake the feeling that something's sorely missing by only running once or twice a week.
 

I'd love to, but only if I had a group 'worthy' of that much time and effort. My recycle time is based off of work, and how often I can put on the nanny hat and get the game moving. If some more of the game could be automated, or if I could get some help (goals, etc). I'd probablly be both willing and able to game more often.
 


3x's per week.. hmm.. I've done that actually.. for about 6 months then it got hard to maintain enthusiasm.

I guess I would consider it now if I had no bills, work, kids, family or school..

I havbe trouble keeping up with once a week right now.
 


Done it. For a while, myself and all my housemates (hi, Ilya, Bryan, Jillian and Josh) and everyone we knew gamed constantly. I was running a huge party almost every day.
 

If it were up to some of my players I'd probably be running 3 times a week... They'd probably keep me chained up in their house too...

As it is, once a week for my home game and once a week for a Living Greyhawk module is pretty much the limits I can do and still have a social life.

Hmmm, a couple of other choices might be:
Have done so in the past.
Will do so in the future.

Running games 5 days a week was part of my summer job. A job I will most likely do again next summer as well.

Love the job, like the kids, and it pays well to boot! What's not to love?

The Auld Grump, the high point being when one of the kids in the CoC game said 'I toss a sixpack through the bedroom window', refering to 6 sticks of dynamite in a bundle...
