4 and 5. They're mostly people I've been friends with for years, but not necessarily gamed with in addition to friends of friends.

If you choose more than one, please state whether each choice represents a different gaming group, or whether all the choices represent different modes of play for a single group.
3, hopefully 4 soon. ;)

Generally 3 since I started playing GURPS in 1986 (actually, since I started gaming in 1979), with occasional jumps to 4 when Real Life reduces the head count. This is both by preference and circumstance.

My experience is a close parallel of the Good Dr.'s. Started gaming (D&D - little white box version) in 1977, been gaming with the same friend since 1979, and started GURPS in 1986 (after playing the Arduin Grimoire since 1978).

We have other friends that we've played with for over 20 years now, so we're generally style 3. But we get new folks now and again, so it's sometimes a mix of 3 and 4.

I don't use the Interwebz regularly enough for 1, 2, or 6.

I have played exactly 4 GURPS sessions before, with people I had known for years (I had only gamed with one of them before, but the GM was someone I regularly chatted with about the fine points of the system; I also helped stat a bunch of the stuff we used). I have also done a handful of combat tests using wolves, bears, and griffins (sometimes a human or dwarf).

Naturally, this was all face-to-face.

3 and 4. 3 for my campaign (though there has been some turnover of players in the nine years this campaign's been running), 4 for the one in which I'm a player.

How are you playing GURPS?

I have two groups one is the old university group from 15 years ago back in Scotland, but one player, who is the long time girlfriend of an even longer time player, is a first time roleplayer. We play online since I live in France and they are scattered across Bonny Scotland.

The second group is French except for me and we play in French. We've been playing for nearly four years and exclusively face to face.

So more or less (1) and (3) for two groups.
