After reaching 71 players on Roll20, with 5 of them being GM with all different styles, types of play and time zones to facilitate any group of players all in the same world, I thought we were set, Full Steam Ahead!
Alas, there were only games when it was pushed, it was the same group with the same GM, give or take 1 or 2. The GM (Brian) was (IS) perfect, the group, it was (IS) fun and adventures were (ARE) being logged and are open to all players.
But there was no initiative from all the other people. Not everyone was on discord so games weren't discussed by everyone, and not all of those were on Obsidian Portal where games could be effectively proposed, managed and set.
So, I removed everyone that was not on Discord, then those that had never even put on message on Discord, only those that showed even the slightest interest were left in, and those removed were given a way to get back in.
Previously 71, now 12.
Let's get some players again! Show some interest, there is no need to commit to X amount of games within a certain time frame. Talk to people, develop a community that can support itself.
Come on in, pull out a chair and grab a drink.
We got space at the table for you
Rocks fall, everyone dies
