    Different Games for the Referee and Players

    Initiative has to be individual, and the GM has to be able to reconcile the different systems and produce a sequence. Then it works.

    Different Games for the Referee and Players

    I'm surprised that this is an unusual idea. At conventions, I've played games with all kinds of mixtures of characters. I think my record was a heroquest at the first Convulsion that had AD&D1e, AD&D 2e, RuneQuest II and Marvel Superheroes characters. There might have been more, this was 35...

    For those who don't play D&D (or its clones), what keeps you engaged with EN World?

    I use the site to keep up with news, and get tastes of other groups' ideas. This is the only forum on the site I try to keep up with.

    For those of you who have set up play-by-post games, how do you do it?

    I've tried it several times as a player, with one definite success and one partial success. The great difficulty with PbP is waiting for each other, and being uncertain if someone is going to respond. The successful game was 1:1, with one player - me - and the GM.

    What time would you play an evening online 3 hour game session mid to long term?

    I tend to fade out after 22:00. My regular weeknight online games are both 19:30 to 21:30, with overspill to 22:00 possible. We tend to go pretty fast, and two hours allows a satisfying session.
