Message: <blockquote data-quote="qstor" data-source="post: 144350" data-attributes="member: 1489">I joined the RPGA for Living Greyhawk in Sept 2000. I was in an RPGA club in Michigan in law school BUT I was never a member of the RPGA then. Since then I have found mixed things in it as with everything in life. But overall I have found it to be enjoyable. A main downpoint is that I dont have a lot of time for my home group anymore none of whom are in the RPGA. I have branced out to play Living Force (star wars d20) and Virtual Seattle (Shadow Run) and the brand new Delta Files "Living" Delta Green.As to promoting powergamers, there are powergamers where ever you game. No more so in the RPGA, IMO. I find it that some players get to travel more to home games and out of state conventions. Most of them are single or have significant others that game. My spouse has allowed me to go to GenCon and I'm going to Origins but I dont get to go to a small con in Tennessee every weekend.As to promoting role playing, the players get to vote at the end of some of the modules, if this option is chosen for the best role player. I know some mini maxers that dont win tables. If you win a table you get a "die bump" I feel this is a good way to promote role playing. The new head of the RPGA is introducing a new judges promotion where quaility judges will get benefits from free $5 membershipd in the RPGA to a free trip including airfare to GenCon.For a mere $5 now I feel overall the RPGA is worth it. I encourge others to play with the free membership and see if the $5 is worth it.Mike</blockquote>
