NC Game Day - Important new info!

[Belen]

Has anyone ever considered setting up a NC Game Day yahoo group? We'd still use EnWorld, but we'd have a year around site dedicated to the game day.

It would be nice to have a NC group that was active and members of EnWorld. I would be willing to run the site and take care of its operations, while Rel could handle the game day itself.

I updated it as well. Other GM's can chime in with when they want to play. Clueless and Baron Alaric will (I presume) run their games in opposite slots for mutual participation.

You presume correctly, good sir.

Shadowrun:
Title: ACME Inc.
Players: 6
Slot: morning
Mental note: Bring a lot of strong coffee.

I just updated the schedule again. If there were two of me, the other one would be playing in BelenUmeria's morning game. That sounds very cool.

I'm not against the idea by any stretch. But what advantages do you think it would afford us over the method we've been using?

Rel or Henry-

Can you add me to the afternoon Call of Cthulhu game BaronAlaric is running? Thanks!

Yahoo Group

Advantages:

Direct e-mail access among all group members. No one would forget to post or check EnWorld.

Files: We can place files online for other members to download. That way, we could put info up on the session in word format or what not that can be easily accessed without clogging up EnWorld.

Community: All EnWorlders from NC would have a place to hang out and find games. Also, we could use the site to expand future game days. Say, if someone wants to turn the one session into a continuing game day campaign.

I still believe we should use EnWorld to annouce game day and post for planning, but a group would let us hang out year-round. We could use it to really develop our presence in the area.

NC Yahoo group

Rel,

I went ahead and create the group site. Anyone can join, just use the link:

I've signed up (not that I'm in NC...).

A Yahoo group is a decent idea, I think. Only problem I see with it is that Yahoo Groups and Hotmail don't always play nice together. I'm on several Yahoo groups, and sometimes I don't receive emails for 3 or 4 days after they are posted (I suppose I could have them sent to my work email, but thats another decision for another day).

My gaming group uses both a Yahoo Group and a message board for communication. The boards are nice to have more widespread info posted, while we use the group to argue, hash out ideas, and decide what we are going to eat and who has snack duty.

If everyone who is going to the NC Game day signs up and uses it, the group can be a great resource. If only a few use it, or some discussions continue to happen on ENWorld and other on the group, it could cause more confusion than is necessary. Just my $.02.

Thanks for the support. Obviously, I agree with your sentiments. So far, we have three total members. I think it could be a cool place for all of us to hang out and get to know one another better.

Hmm, second try

I'm interested in BelenUmeria's d20 Modern Game for the morning and Baron Alaric's Call of Cthulhu Game for the afternoon.

For BelenUmeria, I'd suggest "Shattered Triangle, or how I learned to stop worrying and love what's left of the cooling tower." I love the tingle of radioactivity in the morning!

I'm also looking forward to a CoC game with Chtulhu's Librarian on hand. My sanity is ready to be stamped and checked out by some nameless dread from beyond space and time!
