Just a silly poll for a Friday. Sorry if I missed your favorite, you only get 15 items in the polls.

I always think about running a campaign in another setting, but I always seem to end up using FR. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I chose Aihrde, but that only recently pulled ahead of Haunted Highlands. Once I get my HH kickstarter package that might change!

I choose Kalas even though I ported it into Aihrde.

I chose hombrew, but it's fairly evenly split between Greyhawk and my own version of the Lost Lands setting. Haunted Highlands may be my next campaign, so that may change in the near future. Less so, would be an every so often game set in James Mishler's Wilderlands of High Adventure.

I always use a homebrew. I don't have the time or memory cells in my brain for studying and memorizing a published setting. I do steal from published settings for things to incorporate into my homebrew.

Greyhawk, always, but not a particularly canonical version of it. I'm even thinking of a version set even further in its future with a much stronger emphasis on humans (demi-humans as very rare NPCs), and much lower magic (esp. magic items ... ).

I've used 7 of those listed, as well as more beyond those listed, such as Ravenloft and Kalamar. Even so, to those who are "Die hard, must use the setting as written" people, I always run "home brews", because I never use any setting as written.

I chose homebrew for we don't really use a campaign. Instead our game is really a series of short stories, each module stands on its own with few connections between them.

I run my game in Greyhawk since I know it so well, but I play in Steve's game, obviously set in Aihrde and, I gotta say, Aihrde is pretty awesome.

I chose Haunted Highlands, but "homebrew" is probably more accurate since I tend to homebrew most of my campaigns, no matter what rules I use. I jump around a lot between OD&D and C&C and run Greyhawk or Blackmoor or some campaign I dream up. The Haunted Highlands campaign is one I've always run using C&C, however, and I think we'll be doing a lot of this campaign now that the new material is out.

Homebrew for me. See Crusader mag for details.

After years of feeling constrained by published settings I have decided to go fully homebrew using things I have wanted to use for awhile. The setting remains medieval fantasy but incorporates some dungeon punk and steam punk ideas as well.

I have only been running C&C for two years now and have used a generic homebrew setting the whole time. My campaign is based out of a large, thriving port city that is a mash-up of iconic elements from Sanctuary (Thieves' World), Greyhawk City, Lankhmar, Baldur's Gate (Forgotten Realms), Sharn (Eberron), and Mos Eisley (Star Wars). The world is deliberately vague, which allows us to make it up as we go.
I am gearing up to run another C&C play-by-post game, using the Haunted Highland setting, but I will likely use the setting as a skeleton and add stuff as I see fit.

Though not in the poll list, a very nice gazetteer and map are available at Seskis' site for his Ilshara campaign setting;

Also at Dragonsfoot.

Currently using the Gnatdamp setting from Gygax Magazine. However, once this concludes, I'm likely moving on to the Haunted Highlands.
