EN World New GMs, players, read the first post in this thread! (updated 5/21)

[Tric]

Hello, Tric, welcome to posting Feel free to try to join any of the recruiting threads listed at the first post of this thread.

As you wish.

Regardless, this isn't a thread to say, "Here's my character, get me in a game!"

This is a thread to say either, "There isn't a game for me" (if you're a player) or "Here's a game for people to join" (if you're a GM)

GMs don't typically look through these posts to look for players, rather, the first post of the thread is meant to comprise all the relevant information.

The point of posting here is to tell me what you need/are offering. If there's already something that suits your needs, then I'm not going to put you in the first post of the thread.

 

[Tric]

I don't know if there's anything that suits my needs. From what I've gone through so far, there isn't.

You said you wanted a game that was FR, Eberron, or homebrew. There are over a dozen such games listed. To my knowledge, none of them are dungeon crawls.

I would like to dive into the PBP thing, with running a game, but as this is my first attempt, I'd like to start slow and simple. First of all, some technical advice please: How do I put a link to something in my post?

Yes, of course you're right. Excuse my behavior.

Exactly what Voda Vosa said.

That is, of course, after you have a recruiting thread (I'm not sure whether or not you do). Things to keep in mind when recruiting players: make sure your recruiting thread includes what level you intend on starting at, point buy amount (if used, alternately, what online dice roller to use for rolling stats), what books you're using/allowing, starting gold, and house rules (including restricted classes and races). If you plan on using a premade setting, you shoudl also mention. You typically also want to write a blurb so the players know what kind of game to expect (so they make appropriate characters).

Once you do that, you can advertise here if you like, and all the information I need to know is the name of the game, the url of the recruiting thread, and a few tidbits of information (level or number of players or setting and when you're planning on ending recruitment, if you know).
