Taking each campaign, adventure, and encounter as its own thing - unique and, therefore, special - that's what it takes to capture an old school gaming style. The standardization of D&D (and other RPGs) is killing the old school feel which most nostalgic gamers long for. For example, if you take your significant other out to dinner at the same restaurant for every single anniversary, it's eventually going to get stale - no matter how much you both enjoy it!. Savor the little things, the details, the nuances which make each exploration of a 10' by 10' room worth going through the trouble. Describe the road less traveled! I don't mean heaping on the monsters/treasure/magic. No, heap on the strangeness, the mystery, let your DM imagination run wild every so often. Surprise your players!
