I'll raise my hand to this one.

Right now work is changing our schedules from 10 hour shifts to 12 hour shifts on different days, so I'm having trouble nailing a regular time down. So, no game at the moment.

Instead, I've been doing demos at local conventions (the two most recent were pitiful due to low attendance due to poor advertising) and helping with the gaming charities of Extra Life and Save vs Hunger by running one-shots for them.

So, I'd say that I am not gaming regularly at this time. The last convention was three weeks ago.

I think since we missed this weeks season that puts us a month out from the last season of The Great Pendragon Campaign.

We normally do every other week but have missed to due to life.

Prior to that we've been more or less steady for 6 months or so. Prior to that I was in a different group that was steady for a year. Before that nothing since I came back from Korea (where I gamed fairly regularly if infrequently).

I was on a break for a bit last year. I had burned out on GMing for the current group. Too much drama not enough gaming. However I've fallen in with a new group of players and have had a chance to play. Currently we are on our second session of Numenera, before that it was Mutants and Masterminds. Once we are done with Numenera, I'll be taking a turn as GM, something I'm actually looking forward to again.

Due to life issues and depression, I've not played since December of last year.

I hope to change this with an upcoming GURPS game run by ExploderWizard.


Oh wait, I did teach one of my cousins girlfriend Pathfinder a few months back.

Are we talking video games, RPGs, wargames, or just all games?

Same.

If it's more that I play board games every week and video games nearly everyday.

I'm playing in a weekly Pathfinder game but I'd like to be running games more often than I have been lately.

Gaming every week, 4hrs on Friday nights (1e AD&D).  Probably going to increase by a lot over the summer with two roll20 games (one running, 1e AD&D, one playing, jury is still out) and my other group that usually plays Hero System getting back together.

Since my group only met a half-dozen times a year anyway, I'm a non-gamer by  Pundit's silly definition.

Thanks for clarification.

Play-by-post roleplaying game I do often.

No board games. No neighbors to play chess, Risk, Heavy Gear, Jovian Chronicles, or OGRE with.

No video games. Don't own a TV or console.

I haven't played an RPG in close to 10 years. Couple of weeks ago I joined the Amber PbP game that Renen advertised. Not sure if that counts.
Otherwise it's just been WoW and I quit that a couple years ago.

I run two games per week.

One group of 6 and another group of 4.

No player overlap in either group.

Each session is about 4 hours long.

I run my D&D home brew... and tweak rules based on actual play.
