This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Yes

I run it every fortnight and some one offs every now and then.

It's the only RPG I run ATM.  although I have loads of RPGs, but I only feel like running 5E atm.

Another player is running CoC 7th ed, which I play in, but pretty infrequently, as he's a bit of a perfectionist, so spends an inordinate amount of time prepping.
Still, when we DO play, it's great fun :)

Playing it regularly.

I alternate D&D 5E bi-weekly with play-tests of new material for my Terracide setting.

(Gotta get my SF fix when I'm not doing fantasy!)

Nerzenjäger

Running it weekly and -- given my group's unexpected enthusiasm for the game -- sometimes even twice a week.

I'm pretty much playing it vanilla system-wise, but in old school Judges Guild mode; which is to say, as a hexcrawl in my multiversal fantasy version of the Lotharii Regnum/Alsace.

I might be releasing my 5E encounter tables as soon as I have stripped them from setting-specific entries.

Currently running a bi-weekly 5E game. We played the introductory adventure "Lost Mine of Phandelver", then made new characters and are now playing in my Barbarian, Conqueror, King setting (originally intended for ACKS). This is the main RPG I am running right now.
We are but a tiny candle flickering against the darkness of our times.

Playing it and DMing it.

Regularly playing it. DMing it is on hold for now after a medical emergency sidelined one of the players. I am hoping something changes for the better soon.

Right now 5e and and the longrunning Spelljammer game that moved over to a new system are the two I am mainly playing in right now.

Necrozius

I've been running a 5e campaign since right after Christmas. We play every two weeks, and with our busy adult lives, this is pretty much the only game that we play at all.

Shipyard Locked

It's the only tabletop I'm running at the moment. Using Eberron for it.

One of my group's players offered to run a one-shot for us some months ago.  We had a good time and 2 other people bought the PHB recently based on that session.

The guy who ran it for us plays regularly back where he lives (he only comes out 1/month because he lives ~2.5 hours away).  None of us in the local group are playing it regularly.  We just have other long term games going on and no one felt the urge to replace either of them with 5e though we may switch to it once one of them ends.

Yeah, I've played it.

I played it weekly between November and March. But since March I've taken a hiatus from that particular gaming group, and haven't played it since.

Not me. That 5 month window will likely be the first and last time I play 5e. I have no interest in it at all. That experience proved to me that D&D, of any edition or stripe, no longer has any appeal for me. There are many other Rpgs that I'd much rather run or play that I'd rather not waste time again with the D&D experience.

Opaopajr

Played. GMed.

Regularly play. At least once a week, currently, often twice or three times per week. Months ago I binged hard around 4 to 5 days per week with other RPG games mixed in. And my PbP here atop all that.

It is not my main play now. It has dropped below half this season.

(I hang out often at an FLGS like a bar. Cheaper than alcohol and keeps me from binging snacks in front of the TV/books at home.)

You know, people keep comparing non-TSR D&D to deck-building in Magic: the Gathering. But maybe it\'s more like Katamari Damacy. You keep sticking shit on your characters until they are big enough to be a star.

I've played it twice. I enjoyed playing in more than I have any other WOTC edition, but not nearly enough to switch to it from my variant TSR D&D standard. Which means the answers to the second and third questions are both no.

Monthly 10 hour in person sessions of 5e with one group.
Weekly 3 hour sessions of Roll20 sessions of 5e with another group.
Also playing: Dungeon World and Mutant Future.

5e accounts for more than 50% at this point.
