I’ve been playing Dungeons & Dragons for many years now. But the game has been around long before I got into this hobby. So when did Dungeons and Dragons become popular?

A friend of mine – who is new to DMing – asked my advice about how to manage a large group of D&D players. That got me thinking: How do I manage large D&D groups?

Last game night one of my players was absent and it really impacted the story in a negative way. So I wondered: What is the best way to deal with absent D&D players? I decided to do some research and write a helpful post on how to deal with missing players.
