[QUOTE="SheckyS, post: 6759581, member: 6804460"] I'm kinda new to ENWorld, also. Do they have groups on here? That seems like it would be useful. As for how to organize it, there used to be a weekly group meeting on AOL many years ago where a bunch of people would get together and create new monsters. One person would run it, sort've like an improv group and ask people for ideas. People would raise a bunch of ideas and the moderator would pick one and then it would go from there. Then we would decide hit dice and ac and abilities and such as a group. So I imagine you could do a campaign like that. A bunch of people just get together, one person moderates and starts off with... okay.... what's the campaign this week? Anyone got ideas? A bunch of people throw out ideas, the moderator picks one (or maybe the group votes), and then we go from there. What's the basic story? What's the player hook? What kind of NPC's are involved? What kind of monsters? What prompted this post for me was that I have a sort've basic, incomplete idea for a story, but it lacks some very important details, like how to hook the characters into the story and what kind of clues they follow. I could come up with some really lame ones, but I thought opening it up to other people with different perspectives would be really helpful. I suppose, in theory, the whole thing could be done on a forum thread, but it would be hard to keep it organized and moving along. It would be better to have a chat room or even a Skype chat or something like that. [/QUOTE]
