[QUOTE="Jeff Wilder, post: 4644119, member: 5122"] I'll ask around for you, Jennifer, and pass on your info when appropriate. I've had the most luck with a local Bay Area forum called "Critical Hit," but it seems to have gone away. (It was at "www.cilibrin.net/rolldice.) I'm very surprised it's gone, as I used it when I found my first 3E game in 2000, and I got a couple of players from it as recently as six to eight months ago. Shame. There's a "Gamers Seeking Gamers" forum here on EN World (I just found a good online game using it), so you could give that a shot. Also, there's a great game store in Santa Clara called Game Kastle that I know hosts several weekly D&D games. (I can't vouch for the quality of those games, but I can vouch for the approachability of the gamers I met through Game Kastle when I lived in Los Gatos.) They'll certainly have a "Gamers Seeking Gamers" physical bulletin board. You have a [I]huge[/I] advantage going for you, being a woman. While it's true that there are a fair number of gamer guys just looking for gamer girls to hit on, it's also true that most mature DMs would love to increase the female-to-male ratio in their games, because women bring different -- usually positive -- things to the table than male gamers do. Because of this, you even have a good chance of wedging yourself into a "full" game. What I'm getting at is that if you make the effort to find games, I wouldn't be surprised if, within a month, you have literally eight or ten you can choose from. [/QUOTE]
