Open-Table
From Tomb of the Serpent Kings
An open-table game is a type of D&D game that doesn't use a consistent group between sessions. Normal D&D campaigns have the same exact group of players meeting every session to play and carry forward the same story. Open-table games, on the other hand, are designed for episodic games where every session can be self contained, and different players can participate each time. It is ideal for large groups of players.
Basically a game designed to get around this meme:
