How many have you corrupted?

Feb 17, 2009 9:29:04 Just wondering how many people here have gotten others into DnD.

I, personally, have taught the rules of 3.5e and 4e to 6 people, and working on a 7th (My girlfriend's neice, who is 10. She has the mind of a 15-year-old, though.)

How many have you brought into the fold? Were there any memorable stories to go with it?

Feb 17, 2009 17:25:18 I was the first person in my group who played or owned any of the books, and I got some friends to join, so lets see... 4 people, plus another 3 or so I've played with about two or three times when camping.

Um, random guess?

20?

And then there's my 4th grade Catholic Catechism teacher, Sister Maria... Does a nun count extra? lol :D

Feb 18, 2009 18:30:53 Long ago in 6th grade I brought the game to my Catholic school. It took a couple of months, but eventually the majority of the kids in my 30 student class had played or were playing. I can only claim a half-dozen of them, as those ones recruited others. It ws banned before the year was up. We moved on to the kid-friendly, demon-free Battle Tech.

In high school I got perhaps as many as 10 to start playing. There was a bit of a haze and things are hard to remember.

In college, it was fewer, and that was more of a haze. Music major and all.

In the 10 years since its only been a handful. I took a few years off and besides, people my age either already play or never will.

On a final note - Its great. I found out last month one of the foremen at work plays. I can now do no wrong.
