Looking for a Game/Looking for more players

[fantomas]

There has recently been a google groups mailing list set up for organising game groups. It's pretty much Melbourne based at the moment, but I don't believe it's just restricted to Melbourne.

http://groups.google.com.au/group/geektogether

"The Geektogether happens once every season, where several game groups and gamers without groups get together to have a few drinks and tell tall stories about gaming... and organise new game groups! The Geektogether mailing list supports this, bringing Aussie gamers together. The last Geektogether was March 1st, and there are already 3 new game groups from it."

There was another post looking for gamers for a new RPG earlier today (as in the date of this posting)

Hello all,

I kept meaning to look for a pen and paper place in the forums, since it seems that most of the folks I see applying to play with TOG have a background in the old pen and paper realm. I currently play once a week-ish (depending on schedules and such) with a group that use the MapTool virtual tabletop (it's free, and very well supported) and a Ventrillo client to play a homebrew Savage Worlds campaign. Being able to play online means that as long as the hours we play are compatible with your schedule, you can play a pen and paper campaign!

We generally play on Thursday evenings from about 6PM until sometimes as late as midnight/1AM PST (which makes it begin Friday mornings for me here in South Korea). In any case, the adventure logs (which I've been writing for over a year now), as well as more information about the campaign (including who to contact, and how to join if you are interested) is located here: Shades of Shadora | Obsidian Portal.

If you have questions about MapTool, I can point you in the right direction, but I've not had much experience with anything other than the user/player aspect...

That sounds great, Mephiston. I've been looking for a PnP RPG group for a while and have currently been getting into D&D 3.5 and Star Wars d20. The Wednesday/Thursday nights sound good - do you need to book to join, or do you just roll up?

Cheers.
