I've got a conundrum.
My D&d group is made up of my general friend circle, and because of this the group regularly has 6-8 people in the group at any given time. While this leads to great fun most of the time, it also bogs down fights, conversations (inter-party or otherwise) and just game-play in general. Characters go under-developed, almost nothing gets done, and people are equally likely to be looking at some device or another as being included in whats going on with the DM. I'm a veteran of the game, but have no advice to give my slightly green DM on this subject.
Thus I turn to you guys. Without kicking out any people or something along those lines, what could we do to include more of the people we have, and develop their characters?
