Mar 31, 2004 22:34:27 Unfortunatly, I haven't had a gaming group for good ole PnP since the early high school days. Playing muds and NWN just isn't the same, and I've had a fair bit of nostalgia for the good fun of Dark Sun (haha ha... 3 hours straight of looking at old posts is apparently what it takes to think my own rhyming is funny :D )

Sooooo, do any of you run campaigns online? Or, anyone in the St. Louis area that wouldn't mind a newbie crashing every now and then? (Moving down there mid-May)

I wanted to, but never found a method of doing it that I liked (I won't fo play by post, though some of them are nice reading).

As far as 'dropping by', I've got an open invitation for anyone in the NE Ohio area. Granted, that may be a bit of a comute for you ;)

Mar 31, 2004 23:14:09 I did one through a chat system once. However I have considered running a game through voice chat, almost like a conference call system.

Run a campaign using it, and ezboard for notes etc. (not DS though)

Got my mic right here ;)

Never thought of playing over voicechat, but count me in if you get enough interest and time and feel like running it. I know there are a few free voicechat softwares out there (Have Ventrilo right now, use to run Roger Wilco) and they work pretty well.

Apr 01, 2004 7:46:54 Well, I have packing I am doing, moving out to my Mom's house, a job to find, then a Static IP to set up and I'll have my server back up and running. I was hoping to get a Jabber server up that might have voice chat possibilities on my Server, I dunno if that's possible tho.

Apr 02, 2004 0:44:35 Maybe its just my vastly supior mind that has a difficult time wrapping itself around such base and simple concepts, but I couldn't get OpenRPG to work out quite right. Tinkered for a few weeks with it, but to no avial. KloogeWerks seemed a little better, but I wouldn't want to ask a bunch of people to go shelling out cash for playing D&D unless they wanted to.

Apr 04, 2004 4:41:47 So, is anyone actually interested in running an online DS game then? I'm rather DMed out right now with 2 groups running, and its been years since I sat at the proverbial 'other end of the table'.
