Three times for three different endings, too!
Four times. They just never released the fourth ending.
I always wrote a recap right after each session because it helped keep a history of what happened and made sure I didn’t lose track of things.

I hadn’t seen this, fantastic!
The tradition in my group is for a player to do the recap in exchange for an inspiration token (or a hope in our Daggerheart game). Then the DM fills in gaps.
One of my groups has the DM giving us some bonus exp for writing a “journal entry”
That’s kinda how Margaret Weiss and Tracy Hickman wrote Dragonlance. One of them DMed while the other took notes. The first trilogy, at least, was a retelling of the campaign they ran in their brand new setting. Which they made, because at that point in D&D there were tons of Dungeons, but scant few Dragons.
As I’ve started co-DMing the group I’ve also realized that it’s a great way to reinforce the plot points that players may have missed or not seen as important.
