So how often do you actually get to sit down and game, whether it's online or at the table?

I used to play shadowrun online only (wee babes in the house and lots of work made things tough). Now I've dropped SR altogether, unfortunately.

The question is how often you game period, regardless of system.

Almost every day, I pull out the Pinball game I got on the 360 at the very least.
I'm just starting to fight off my Fallout: New Vegas addiction. I used to play a lot of Tropico 4, but am stuck on a damned hard map with stupid Canadian Telephone Hygienists. |

I'm still confused here, is this relegated to solely to Table Top gaming or are we including vidjamagames as well?

Played Shadowrun weekly or better for 4 months, now playing Star Wars Saga Edition. It's probably the best d20 system yet made.

I was able to get 2 other people together to play Shadowrun through instant messenger twice. I was new to the system, and not really a good GM.
A few years earlier, I got to play in one or two pick up games online for a few sessions. Other than that, pretty much nothing since college, and even then was pretty minimal. |

I generally play once a week. We hop between Mechwarrior, Star Wars (WEG D6), Shadowrun, D&D, Rogue Trader, Dark Heresy, and whatever else we get in the mood for. I'd like for us to hop into Eclipse Phase eventually as well, but it just feels like a quagmire to get all of it into my head.

I suspect that this is also true of many people, posting about many things. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)
I used to play every week. But current schedules have made the Shadowrun game bi-weekly. I still run Exalted every week. Edit: that reminds me, I should have a Shadowrun party on the 24th this year. christmas + awakening party! |

Just in time to pick up a Skyrim addiction.I'm just starting to fight off my Fallout: New Vegas addiction. On a good week, I play tabletops games 3 times a week. That's a night each of Lost souls, Shadowrun, and the 3.5 edition of That Game Which Causes Cancer. Generally, 1-2 of them get canceled for the week. |

In high school and the early years of college, I'd game 2-3 times a week easy. We primarily played D&D (mostly 3.5, occasionally earlier editions), then picked up Scion, now I dig shadowrun. Trouble is, being married and having a daughter makes things difficult as far as gamings (as did a social split from most of my gaming group, so I had to find another group). Now I'm lucky if I play once a week.

QUOTE (Paul @ Nov 10 2011, 10:04 AM) So how often do you actually get to sit down and game, whether it's online or at the table? How about sitting on couches in the front room with dice and books instead of a table? When we're on, usually on the weekend to every other weekend. When we're off, can be a few months between. Depends on what RL is doing, kids being sick, etc. Harder to get games going as an "adult" with the rest of life's responsibilities. Luckily my wife is just as into game as I am. She's a big SR fan, and loves Earthdawn even more. She loves the San Jose Sharks too. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) |

I play once a week right now. Once my schedule settles a little, it'll bump back to twice a week with oWoD on one day and Star Wars/Shadowrun on the other. Though the Star Wars half only lasts as long as the GM can stay focused on one system.
