[QUOTE="Hussar, post: 3793330, member: 22779"] But, you're still assuming something that's not true. The VTT isn't for existing groups. Why would I target existing groups? That doesn't make any sense. The VTT will be a place where everyone who pays for the DI will be able to find a group. It's for the creation of new groups. Now, that still leaves Mac's out in the cold and that sucks. But, your idea that the concept is doomed to failure because existing groups won't be able to use it is faulty. They don't care about existing groups. I suspect, and this is only a suspicion, that the VTT will be used as a vehicle to really push RPGA games. If the RPGA gets behind the VTT, then you can have a RPGA sanctioned game running 24/7. All you have to do is load up, look through the list, pick a table that's starting soon and poof, instant 4 or 5 hours of gaming. The online Character program will store your RPGA sheet nicely (so no cheating) and you can move on to the next RPGA sanctioned game on your own time. With so many RPGA members, if they can grab even a fraction of them and co-opt them into the DI, then they are golden. [/QUOTE]
