josephrjusticeThis is my answer to the OKC question "Have you ever played Dungeons and Dragons?" The possible answers are: (1) Yes; (2) No.
Yes, I have played Dungeons and Dragons. I've also played other table-top, pencil and paper RPGs (Role Playing Games). I started sometime in high school I guess, and pretty much stopped some time in my 20s, in part because of finding other interests, and in part because of a lack of people to play with. When I started playing, the first edition original Dungeons and Dragons books (authored by Gygax) were out, as was their precursor "Chainmail". I mostly played using the original Advanced Dungeons and Dragons rules, however.
These days, while I do not play D&D per se, I *do* play something I think is spiritually akin to it known as a MUD (Multi-User Dungeon -- see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MUD for more information). The MUD I play on these days is known as RetroMUD (see http://www.retromud.org/main.html for more information).
But... Even though I have not referred to them in years, I still have my old set of AD&D manuals, and my character sheets, and my set of 4 and 8 and 12 and 20-sided dice. For whatever that is worth.
Oh, and I've said that both Yes and No are acceptable answers by others to this question for me.
