Message: <blockquote data-quote="Taren Seeker" data-source="post: 413770" data-attributes="member: 615">While I'm not a huge LG fan, it's a little more active in Toronto at the moment since there are more recently-released scenarios available.In fact, there will be a second Weekend in Ket in Toronto in November, where the next 3 regional scenarios will be released.I know that there have been a number of bad stories about the Living campaigns, but it does a few things very well: it expands your network of players, and at least in my case, can sharpen both your playing and DMing skills. It's a unique challenge to take a 4 hour module and breath life into it for a disparate group who is often not familiar with each other or you. It's also a challenge to get your character concept across to a group in just a few hours of play. Some of the best tactical and RP players in the RPGA are in Toronto. However, we're not all great, there are some real pieces of work that show up as well. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" /> You can't let it scare you off however, I have had far more good experiences than bad in the last 3 years.I highly recommend giving it a shot. The LG ruleset can be a bit wonky, but you can at least see what it's like in a con atmosphere. I'll talk to the coordinators about setting up a "newbie" booth, where someone can be available to help you get ready for your first game. I have a feeling that I might get volunteered to man such a booth.As I said earlier, I prefer LC. It's closer to a core rule experience but there's been a shortage in modules for the last couple of months. Also, the amount of press LG has been getting in the last year has eroded the LC fanbase.You can get the necessary documents at:<a href="http://www.living-greyhawk.com" target="_blank">www.living-greyhawk.com</a>and<a href="http://www.livingcity.organizedplay.com" target="_blank">www.livingcity.organizedplay.com</a>The Greyhawk site has been partially shut down for remodeling but all of the files are available. You can also check out the official site at WotC but it's out of date.Anybody who is interested in learning more or needs some help figuring things out can drop me an email at stosic(at)idirect.ca.Icebear: I'm actually not really in North Toronto, but more east, around Lawrence and Don Mills. I don't think we're looking for people for our homegame right now but I'll keep you in mind. Take a look at the living stuff and drop me a line.BTW, to join the RPGA is now free. All you need is a card which most RPGA numbers have been supplied with. I have a bunch right now that I could use. Any RPGA member should be able to hook you up. LC is a little different now but you don't need to join until you hit 2nd level.</blockquote>
