Seriously. I don't have time with work/school/GF togo play with my friends anymore(who really just go "Oh hey its2 AM on a tuesday. Lets play DnD) so we have the PA vent channel, i'm sure we all have books and we all have dice so lets get a game (or games) going.

I know I would certainally love to do a World of Darkness or DnD Ebberon campaign.

Personally I'd like to not DM..I have very little experience and my storys usually arn't that good.

    It takes too long to actually play a diced game in a forum form.

    That and people tend to not post after one or two turns.

    We've tried to do this about seventeen times in SE++, and it always, always, always ends in tears.

    Not everyone has Ventrilo.

    Also, what about people in other time zones who want in?

    Ventrilo is free.

    As for timezones. I assume we would get multiple games going, so perhaps different time zone games? Or just try to make it alittle later at night or somthing.

    You can also run a diceless game on a forum.

    That is, if you know of one.

    Which reminds me...

    It's even funnier because I just posted it.

    I meant to do that a while ago. There's kind of a big hole in the RPG community where diceless games are ignored, although I think there are all of like three of them.

    I actually have been running a diceless version of a WoD game over at Flying Stove for going on a year now. It's slow going, and a lot of people have dropped out here and there, but people seem to enjoy it at least for a short time.

    If I were to run something here, I'd probably go with ADRPG. Just for simplicity's sake.
