Do you follow any PbP games?

[Gez]

I only follow those I'm in.

 

[IronWolf]

I used to follow several when I first started getting into PBeM's. Mainly to get an idea of how I wanted to run mine. Now I DM a PBeM and play in one. Those two keep me busy enough, so I no longer lurk any PBeMs.

Back when there were only a few, I sometimes hopped over and looked at the Non-Iconics... .

ahhh... the old days.

It's amazing how many there are now, compared to so few back then.
I seem to remember at least a few people following the Non-Iconic Game, and many following Piratecat's seminal Iconic Adventure.
I never read much of PbP games I wasn't in - just peeked in to see the style, and mapping/combat style.

 

[Psion]

No, but perhaps I should, so I can learn the ropes, if my face to face group attendance keeps its current pace.

 

[Imerak]

I must be different (I generally don't look at Story Hours that much), but I'm a huge PbP lurker. I believe I'm presently lurk-reading three games, and I used to lurk two games which are now on hiatus. I generally prefer reading logs because you can see a game develop, and nothing gets glossed over.

 

[Victim]

I used to, but then the games I was following dissolved.

Yeah... doesn't it make you feel old?

Well, let's see... back when I started the Psionicle, there was our game, the Non-Iconics, and the Iconics.

I think there was one other one... the coils one... I can't remember who ran that, though. But I remember thinking that it was a very strange game, all in all...

So, reaper, did you ever take a peek at the Psionicle?

 

[reapersaurus]

Boy, I don't have a week spare to read it all.


It strikes me as being an impressive body of work. You should all be proud of your efforts.
Give me a brief synopsis - is it the original members? Are you still going?

I know what you mean...

It is an impressive mass of posts, that's for certain, and I know that - I for one - am proud of how far the group has gotten.

As for group members... we've had more people in and out than there are players in most other games, at this point.

Of the four people in it right now (one is currently off on their own), two are original members.

Are we still going... it's stalling right now, sadly. The side-adventure for the one character is still going, though it's a bit slow at times. I'm currently trying to revive the main game by introducing a new player or two... so if you have the time and are interested, hop on over to the recruitment thread in the Talking the Talk forum...

My f-t-f group doesn't have attendance problems, but it does tend more toward beer-and-pretzel gaming. Not that there is anything wrong with that, but I really enjoy getting into character and immersing myself in the game. Since I've started my PbP game, I've come to enjoy it more than my face-to-face game.
