Hullo All!

#1 Post by ginnymack »

Hello, my name is Ginny. I’m a seasoned veteran of tabletop RPGs. A boyfriend introduced me D&D back in college and I was fairly involved in gaming for quite some time. Then came a pressure cooker job, marriage (finally!) and kids, so my gaming waned with the vicissitudes of life ; P

I’ve decided to switch to PbP gaming and this site looks promising. I like to play the old standards yet I’m not too hide bound to dip my piggies into something new/different.

I hope to be playing with you and don’t be a stranger to Ginny here. Peace!

Hey Ginny! Welcome!!
PbP is a great place to try all sorts of new things, the pace lends itself to really learning new systems and games while you play. :)
As you may have noticed we have a two post approval policy - spammers are terrible things - so your first two posts might be slightly delayed, but after that you are free to join games, PM and post without delay.
So welcome! As a daddy of four daughters, I can tell you that PbP gaming fits in with ANY schedule. So again welcome and hope you find a game soon!
Be well,
--Ron--
This is a game about killing things and taking their stuff so you can become more powerful in order to kill bigger things and take even better stuff.
Alethan: I'm good with NOT pressing our luck this time.
mjulius: That's how I know I'm home.
Pulpatoon: The whole point of PbP is to take the scheduling pressure off the game. We're just chatty because we're so eager!
Scott308: ...everyone should be reminded of just how wonderful the people they play games with here can be in real life.
Leitz: Quality and quantity wise, I think US is the best I've seen.
Paladin: I can promise terror, glory, and riches...or a quick and brutal death.
Inferno: Come on! That's was Vicar's Head, a completely different doomed village!
Rex: I can move to the wait list to let someone else into the game.

Hello! If you'd like to join a game set in Ancient Greece, take a look at Athens has Fallen. One or two more characters could be helpful.

Welcome!
On November 2nd I will be participating in another 24 hour game of Dungeons & Dragons as part of Extra Life. This organization uses gaming to help raise money to donate to children's hospitals. I'm raising money for Marshfield Children's Hospital in Marshfield, WI, and all money I raise will go to that hospital. All donations are tax-deductible. Please take a moment to check out my donation page below. Thank you.
