As the title asks...
I clicked Other. I'm starting a new campaign tonight that I am thrilled about. I've gamed with all these people before and they understand what kind of game they can expect from me, so it ought to be a rockin' good time. Still, I can't fairly evaluate my happiness with this game yet.
And I wouldn't mind finding a new campaign where I can be a player.
I'm somewhat happy. We have too many rules arguments for my tastes, but apart from that it's cool.
Giddy like a schoolgirl.
I'm somewhat happy. I'd like to play more often than I do, but my schedule doesn't permit it. When I'm actually playing, I enjoy it a great deal.
Sure am. My buddy's running a Star Wars D20 game that's lots of fun, and I'm running a supers game that the boys seem to be enjoying.
We've had a player sidelined due to some real-life issues, but all is well, in general.
Only time restraints are the negative side of this fine hobby.
I almost clicked "Other" simply to register my desire for a "FUCK YES!" category above and beyond "extremely happy," but it seemed silly.
Tony, I had no idea you had quit indie games in favor of D&D.

Carry on. Sorry.
I clicked extremely happy. I mean if I'm gaming it's got to to be good...very good. I would not play if I was going to have an okay experience. I've got better things to do with my free time.

Exactly. My main problem is that I (and the people I role-play with) don't have enough time to do more of it.
A few years ago, for three years in a row, a few of us took a series of Fridays off in the Summer to role-play. That's right. Using vacation days to role-play, inside, on some fine summer days. I think that suggests some people pretty happy with their role-playing.
Hmm, there's nothing between somewhat happy and very happy, so I chose somewhat happy. :p
I enjoy my gaming, but wish I could game more! :)

Awesome idea!
A few weeks ago I finished a game that ran more than a year on a weekly basis. I realized that I'd actually managed to balance my life so that there was sustainable room for gaming. I'm currently playing in a friend's game and starting up a new one in a few weeks.
Life is better than good :)

I haven't picked a category yet. This has been a rough week, and my gaming has suffered accordingly.
Talk to me next week. ;)
Yeah, sure, I am. Not extremely (that's a pretty poor choice of terms - it implies, well, extreme emotions, which I don't have), but I like it. Last year, I went through a burnout period, took a break from DMing and have made a recovery since then.
Pre move to Ohio >Yes, Extremely Happy!<
Post move..... no group. This makes me a sad, sad gamer.
It's all good, but I don't believe in ultimate happiness so I clicked Somewhat Happy.

Happiness is a warm gun/plasma pistol/blood drenched sword........
I'm extremely happy now that I'm having 2 games a week, which is optimal to me.
slightly unhappy. this is due to burn out and age more than anything else.
however my deesire to create and tell stories is driving me to take my ideas and make short films instead.
I was in the not gaming enough to say category, due to not having a group right now. My friends who game are either in a number of games already and don't have time to do more, or game at times that don't work for me. So, I'm in the process of building a group from scratch. :)

What he said.
I have a tabletop group playing GURPS fantasy that's pretty good fun (though the GMs last few monster conversions from D&D to G4e have been somewhat overpowered for us), but the game schedule is one 6-7hr session per month, down from once every 3 weeks :(
My current PbP game is on hiatus due to GM holiday, the last PbP I tried to run died, and my current game pitch over at big purple has yet to garner a single response.
Things could be better.

Same here.
Absolutely happy! C&C ROCKS!
I'm with Nazgul. My gaming was pretty darned good up until I had to leave California and come up north for school. Now I don't have my regular group or much time to play, so I have to try to satisfy the longing by haphazardly joining Play-by-post games.
I put "Depends on when you ask me." My personal enjoyment of gaming with my regular group is pretty up and down, perhaps even dramatically so, though it's been steadily improving over the last couple of years. I've gotten in a spot of gaming here and there outside of that group which has been really fun. Not sure how much above the "fun bar" that would all graph to, but there it is.
Peace,

Extremely happy! My group rocks. And I'm sure its because we're swine. I wish I had time for a third game though. Even Heavy Gear which I wasn't terribly enthused with is shaping up to be totally kickass. And my mecha is a superkeen Saboteur Ferret, that looks almost Chibi.
Haven't played in years, not good, so no. Lack of players where I live. Real shame.
Six months ago, I definitely would have been at least at the "somewhat happy" mark. I'm still trying for that Pure Concentrated Awesome campaign, but it's an elusive bugger. I have, however, made a conscious decision not to put up with games that are merely adequate.
Sadly, thanks to changed/increased work schedules, my HarnMaster tabletop game is on indefinite hiatus, and my Arcana Evolved Gametable online game is puttering along at about one session per month. So I think right now all I can say is "not gaming enough to say".
