Two years ago our face-to-face local area gaming group switched from using the often buggy Yahoo! Groups mailing list to Meetup.com's. We also wanted a little more publicity, and Meetup helped our group grow. In the last few months we started posting all of our campaign session on our calendars; previously we only posted 'new player meetup' sessions. A side effect is that Meetup has a review system for rating a meetup, and now players are ratiing every session run by our DMs.
It's a 5 star scale with an option to add a comment. Here are some examples:
-"Combat was challenging, and the pacing was just about perfect. Reducing the party size to 5 has really improved the game."
-"It was slow starting out tonight, then got better."
-"I felt buying the equipment dragged out a little too long, but other wise it was pretty good. Almost had my own lil goblin warband lol."
-"I think that the level of detail in this world is great. The town had tons of interesting detail to explore. You do an amazing amout of foreshadowing for letting the characters pretty much run around the enviorment at will. "
-"Our DM is sooo patient with sea stories and movie quotes."
I've found this has made DMing a little more interesting. As a DM, it's nice to get feedback but it's hard to ask for it without sounding insecure.
Do any other tables consistently review game sessions, using something online or an email or even just yacking with others away from the table?
