I would like your permission to use this in my sig, if I may. It would, of course, be credited.
Actually, I think he actually said it....with a word variation and the repetition taken out. I'll have to go get my bro's copy and check.
(I've read Ender's Game 8 times).
Campaign.
It seems like people are still interested, but the format might be better if we play in "sessions" and could make a bit more sense, but might be less inclusive (myself, for instance, but that's alright.) I'm busy most of the time (this is the first time I've made it back to the computer in five days for any significant amount of time) but I may be able to still be in it if it's PbP whenever you can.
Artifact thread. Are we going to be doing that? I haven't seen anything in that direction so I guess not....
About the sub-forum. It might be best if we take a vote or something, idk, since we keep on talking about it but we've never thoroughly discussed it. The pros and cons have been pointed out, so I guess it's time to decide.
I may be able to get real artwork. I belong to an art community (http://www.deviantart.com) and I have connections there. We'll see if people like the idea first.
Ok, I'll be back whenever I can. Over and out!

Nightcloak said:Whoa. Hold on there. while getting merchenduse is fun it is also a logistical pain. You need logos, artwork (You know you want artwork), who gets the task of collecting and paying for this stuff, set up costs, and finally who gets to store this stuff until needed. Merchendise is fun but can be a hassle. Lets get up and running before we start making things complex.
However, a coffee cup with a dragon or balor on it would rock...

Well, let me drop Morrus an e-mail, and see what we can do about the hosted forum.

Dammit. They better have enough for all of us!
After all, we're the DM Foundation, which means we're probably the ones who sent them there...

Problem with attempting "sessions" is that we'd have to organize all of our RLs to play. The point of a PbP game is that is doesn't require our Rls to be organized for sessions. I'm afraid that's just not going to happen.
@Forum Stuff
I love the idea of A t-Shirt and such (that's how official national organizations and such get started...advertisement) Another advantage to the new forum is we could ppoint myself and the counsil as moderators....That seems the logical choice for moderators to me at least.
@derBacher
Um....We aren't talkign aobut a whole new forum for the campaign....We're talking about a new forum for the DMF as a whole.

I think we need to get the question generator running again, this talk of forums and PbP has eaten up a lot of space and hi-jacked the purpose of this thread IMHO.
New Question:
How much third party material do you own/use in your games?
By third party I mean non-WotC products.
As for myself, my bookshelf has a lot of Scared Lands, Necromancer Games, Green Ronin, and Malhavoc Press material. A also have PDF's from Malhavoc Press, The Le Games (Thanks to the Server Drive
), and Creative Mountain Games.
I'm slowly working a lot of this material into my howebrew.

Re: 3rd Party stuff, I don't have much except for the Ravenloft stuff. I bought Relics & Rituals and one of the Scarred Lands monster books, but both were supremely disappointing, so I haven't looked at anything they've done since. I occasionally glance through some of the other publishers' material, but none of it really appeals to me.
WotC gets a lot of flak about unballanced stuff and power creep, but I find most of thier stuff to be fairly good. I can say that because I am definitely not one of those DMs that allows everything into my games. If WotC puts out something that doesn't fit with my game, I don't let it in. Of course, it helps to have players that are more interested in taking stuff because "It's what my character would do" than "This PrC R0xx0rz!!111!!!eleven!".
Books like the Races of X and the Terrain books have so far been excluded, but we'll have to see how Races of the Wild and Maelstrom do. (One of my players has a long-time Elven wizard in the FR, and she loves getting new stuff on elves. I personally am looking forward to Maelstrom 'cause I wanna be a...er, um, wanna run a pirate game).

my campaign
@CE: My home D&D group is thinking of doing one of our test campaigns on the EnWorld boards. To start a campaign, do you just post the thread, or do you have to do something like ask permission from a moderator?

No just post a recruiting thread on the "Talking the Talk" Forum. Once you have your PCs, you can play in the "Playing the Game" forum. (I stated the DMF Campaign in the wrong place...I discovered this too late :/)

Thanks. I already have my PCs, they're the my real gaming group. We're setting up a "bloodlines" campaign, and are gonna' test it online to hammer out rules before we really start to play during our regular meetings. This way, the testing can be done during the week, since we never meet on weekdays.ChaosEvoker said:
