Day 2: First RPG Gamemastered

This as, inevitably, Dungeons and Dragons, and was actually my first first-hand experience of roleplaying full stop (I didn't get a go as a player for many months), though thanks to actual play podcasts I was still more experienced than the rest of my noble band, some of whom were half-minded to bolt in panic until well into the game. We played 4E, which remains the de facto game for that group, because unless you're really quite into games, learning new systems is a pain. I am quite into games, so I cheerfully learn new systems, but I'm not going to force them on my players.
