Why not set it up yourself?

I'm serious.

I can't run a game, I barely have time to post on here and I know that a lot of people that were involved don't have much time either. So if you've got a hankering for some tankering, set up your own game.

I'd be up for playing.

I would throw my hat in to DM, I've got all the materials, but I've never actually run a game before, and I'd prefer if my first time wasn't with all participants being thousands of miles away.

What's the source book, Garand?

I have run a game before, but only in person, and the campaign setting was definitely non-standard (as in, I created it mostly from scratch).  I would be up to doing a post-by-post game, but it would be very intermittent and, of course, much slower than being around an actual table.


As a side note, I must say, I much prefer being DM to being a player; worldbuilding is a major joy for me, much more so than straight role-playing.

@PthariensFlame: Yeah, world building is something I find incredibly fun, which is why I've been trying to convince local friends that PnP RPG's are fun to play so I can give it a shot.

I'd be interested in running a Numenera Post by Play. It's probably harder to do than D&D since there won't be any rules available online - it's quite new - but I love the setting and the ruleset looks pretty amazing.

Also if anyone else want to pick up the D&D game we had going, or make a different one, that would be great - I really fell in love with the Halfling I rolled.

Oh yeah. Welcome to /tg/ kiddies.

For the curious: http://1d4chan.org/wiki/Busty_Barbarian_Bimbos

I find it comparable to Cards Against Humanity. If you're playing with the right people you won't stop laughing. If you aren't it's going to be a singularly painful experience.

I'd be in on a game over Skype. When the last game started I had to drop out real soon because I didn't have time, but currently I have time en masse. So if anyone would be up for DMing, I'm in.

Guuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuys.

I have something special. I have in my hands a copy of Ghosts of Dragonspear Castle, the D&D Next preview. I am now accepting applications for party members. I am willing to DM. Prepare your bodies.

We will be using the pre-generated characters included in the book for ease of use.

The following are the pre-generated characters available.
Human Cleric
Human Mage
Human Fighter
Dwarf Fighter
Elf Mage
Halfling Rogue


Character sheets can be found here:
http://www.wizards.com/dnd/dndnext.aspx

Along with all the other shit you'll need to familiarize yourself with the current level of playtest rules for D&D Next. However be warned, Ghosts of Dragonspear Castle is a few iterations back (the book was released at GenCon) and since I don't feel like digging too hard into the playtesting material the book's word is law... barring the DM getting a chuckle out of your idea. Or his own. If you /really/ want to roll your own character (Yes we know you just /need/ to be your Elvish Cross Class Ranger/Mage... oh wait... that's me) shoot me a PM and we'll work it out. (By work it out I mean, gimme the paperwork and we'll see).

The campaign is designed for 4-6 players, but if we have more then that I will make it work somehow.

No sneaking about and reading the campaign book either! While I will be using the campaign... I will probably be throwing you some curve balls or running you off on a side quest or two.

While Skype or Vent is a (high bandwidth) possibility, I am considering using Roll 20, an online program a friend of mine used for a GURPS campaign I participated in.

Like I've said before, I won't be able to run a game for some time yet (despite the fact that winter is our off season, its also our busiest because we're preparing for festivals all next year).

That being said, the games I would be able to play, if anyone is interested, are:
Pathfinder
Dark Heresy
Deathwatch
Black Crusade
Dragon Age

So if anyone is interested, I might be able to put around the basis of a simple campaign. We're talking about March/April here, so it might seem far off, but given the time I can spare it should give me a little leeway to prepare.

Dude.. Judge Dredd D&D would be awesome (haven't looked at it yet, just the mental image of it).

I'm more for D&D.. I'm always up for something.. I'd like to be a non-human character and some sort of spell caster like sorcerer/ess, depending on the rolls.

Definately up for skype.. I have a laptop with a camera I can use.  Send me a PM if anything does get started please.. I have a bad habit of forgetting to check this thread.

I'm not very good with DMing.. I like being a player more.  I've also got a Slayers (anime) D20 book that I was planning to use for creating a MUD like game that never really came to be.

I'd be down to play as the dwarf fighter. However I do live in England, so I'd have to know beforehand what kind of times (and in which time zone) you're looking to run the game.

I was up until 5am yesterday, staying up late isn't an issue, it's just so I can pick work shifts accordingly.

I'm living in Eastern Standard Time in the U.S. so I'd probably base my times out of that. Seems most of the group is in Europe so far so we might aim for relatively early in the afternoon on say Saturday, so as to avoid making zombies out of you or the Germans.

If I'm not mistaken eastern standard is 6 hours behind of Germany and 5 behind of the UK, so it wouldn't even have to be that early. Something around 2-3pm would probably suffice. I can also work with later times, I'm usually up until 3-4 am anyway.

Further, is Saturday good for everyone? I work a 9-6 M-F so I'm not really available outside of the weekends.

I can't do anything real late on the weekdays/Sunday (past 22:00 latest) but Friday (later) or Saturday would be good for me.

I haven't played D&D since high school for like 3 months, but I'd be in. Unfortunately I'm committed to teching a play until like 10:30-11pm EST on Saturdays throughout January. Not sure if that works with others' schedules but I'd love to try it again.

I can do Saturday or Sunday but I'd rather Saturday since I can be up later (I'm in -5 EST) as Sunday I have to be done by 21:00.

Actually Sunday could work if it was early (I keep having these expectations of massive 4-5 hour games of quite a lot of fun) :)
