I know most of us play as often as possible. Between weekly game night(sometimes 2 nights a week), pick up games, and 2-3 tournaments a month, I average about 22 games a month. How many games do you play on average in a month?

Damn man, 22 a month?! Do your dice wear out after 6 months? I'm lucky if I can manage once a week... :(

Work..married..more work..game!

So, like once a week, and a tournamnet or mega game at least once a month. Paint every other day.

I might, in a good month, get 5 game days in. This month, not so well...I strive for thursday nights plus tournaments. Always looking for a weekend makeup game though.

I think I managed 10-12 games a week over the summer. Nowadays, slightly less. :P

Once every month if I'm lucky, I'm pretty busy and they generally tend to be small 500-1000 point games against my brother or one of his friends.

1 to 2 games a week for me. Every once in a while I'll play two games on a game night instead of one and pull off 3 games in a week.

I probably average about 6 games a month.

Not often enough.

Between work, school (which I don't have anymore but my friends do) and a social life outside of gaming its not easy. I go to gaming at the local hobby shop about 1-2 a week but sometime I don't even game all I do is hang out and talk about gaming.

To me this game is a Hobby, allbeit a all incompassing one its a hobby. I do play in tournament, I do like winning, but in the end my favorite battles are always against fun opponents and the outcome only adds to the time, even if I lose. Admittedly I do enjoy beating powergamers and rule mongers its just a game and none of us are going to get famous or rich playing it, so just relax and have fun.

I used to get about 2-3 games a week but I've cut back to about 2-3 a month now sadly with a tournament about 5 or 6 times a year.

I do get to the gaming store about 2 times a week but as prometheus said I just hang out and bs about 40k and paint. Best thing about gaming stores is that you can loiter there for hours with out buying much beyond a couple drinks or bags of chips.

I normally manage one night a week at the gaming club, sometimes two if I'm lucky. Other than that I try to do a 'gaming day' with one of the guys each month (being near to warhammer world has it's upsides!).

Our group plays once/month for sure and then I play my son at home sometimes. 3-4 times/month total?

At Christmas time last year the group played twice in one week! :)

I'm married with kids, so I average about 1 game per week. The tourneys I go to make up for the 2-3 week dry spells when we're traveling or when work interferes.

I get to play 1 to 2 games a month. If i play in a tournament I can add 3 games to that total, but I dont do that much anymore.

Heck right now I'm averaging 1 game every 2-6 months. It sucks. But I'm not so big on pick up games, they haven't been that fun or easy to find lately and I don't get over to the hobby shop very often, between other activities, school, driving my bro to school and other stuff I just don't have the time as often as I'd like.

I manage 2-3 a month, but my enthusiasm is waning, so it's more like 1-2 a month lately.

Not nearly enough , the biggest thing stopping me and the people around me playing is amazingly not having some where to play, used to be as high as three games a day five days a week , but now it's dropped to once a month

not good

I can just about manage 1 game most weeks at the local GCN (UK), with perhaps 1 or 2 Friendly Tournaments or campaign weekends a year ........ not nearly enough!

I've played about three games on the tabletop in my whole life. A few more on Vassal.

For myself our local gaming club plays twice a week, i'll normally get at least one game in though sometimes two, or i'll sometimes just observe. So i'd say that over the course of a month i'd likely play between 10-12 games.

About an average of 8-9 games a week, so 30-36 games a month atm

I used to play once or twice a week until I moved. Now I just go back to visit my friends once a month or so and squeeze in a game or two.

But my girlfriend is showing an interest in Orks, so I have hopes. ;)

You guys are crazy!! I wish I could play more often than I do, on average once a week. For awhile I was playing steady twice a week. But working 60 Hours a Week, with a LOT of 'Girly Agro' I have not been able to play in nearly a month!!

Once, maybe twice in a month. About as often as the wifey and I...never mind.

I usually play 4-5 times a month. I wish it could be more but with a family and kids it is really hard.
