enworld assignment- the initiate!

[alsih2o]

well, i notice that there are 2 threads on newbie players and morrus responded in mine thread about all newbie groups, saying he was in the same position.

i say we declare september "Newbie Month"!

i urge all of you to find someone with a vague or intense interest in some roleplaying game and to bring a enw player into the fold in the month of september.

if oyu can find a player, let us know a little about them and then post about your success or failure here, for all of us to learn from. a pre-attept summation of the person (no personal-personal info please) and a post attempt wrap-up for everyone here to gather info from may just make things easier on all of us.

anyone interested/up to the challenge? certainly if we can have a d.m.'s day we can have the month of the newbie

I accept this challenge. I shall attempt to bring into the fold my new and amazing gf, who is very interested.

Does this work like a pyramid scheme ?

I, too, shall accept your challenge!

My best friend at school has busted my chops for years about being a 'dork' and playing D&D. Last year, I hit him up again to give it a try. He again called me a dork, until I told him that D&D isn't the only game out there. All I need to do is purchase the d20 Modern book, and I think I'll have him baited. A S.W.A.T.-team style adventure will have him hooked, no doubt!

Isn't this illegal? I would hate to talk about doing illegal stuff on our friend neighborhood EnWorld boards.

I will make sure no charges are pressed in Florida or if so I will be your officer so it will be fine--continue the assault on the newbies.

on second thought i would like to extend newbie to include lapsed gamers, thus increasing our odds of bagging good game

i am also wondering how far meg halls protections extend, could make for an interesting trip to florida

I am starting a new game on Saturday (after a 9-or-so-month gaming drought!) with two newbies, plus my GF who is lapsed at best. Still looking for my fourth player, who I hope isn't a noob actually. I need at least one person who knows what they're doing to pick up the slack.

Well, I've been teaching a friend of mine the game through playing for the past...hmm...two months now? Does that count?

 

[Pbartender]

Our group has two potential new players...

One is the wife of a current player. She's never played before. She played for the first time a week ago in a 1st level one shot adventure. She was very good. I think she's still considering, but I hope she becomes a regular.

The second is a co-worker of mine. He played only once a very, very long time ago, but had a pretty bad DM and so hasn't played since. He'll join in for a trial in about a week and a half.

I'll let you know how it goes.

What an excellent idea!

I'll put on my thinking cap of who might be possible to bring into the fold...
