So I'm not sure if there's actually enough engagement for this, but I figured I'd try. I want to host a D&D game via discord / Roll20. It would be just a few sessions*, probably running the first stage of Lost Mines of Phandelver, a sort of intro to D&D pre-made adventure.
Like I said, new players that are interested but don't know how to play are more than welcome. If there's enough people interested, we'll work out the details and start getting things set up. Only requirements would be being comfortable using a mic with strangers, and not being a shithead I guess.
*If it goes well and everyone is down for it, might continue to do the whole thing, but that's getting ahead of ourselves.
Edit: East coast US, schedule is moderately flexible, but I do work weekdays.
If you find you like DMing online I would highly recommend Foundry it is almost infinitely more powerful then roll 20, there is a large modding community that have made tons of awesome things. And much cheaper then a membership in roll20 over the long run.
I would so be down to join. Since you're using roll 20 and discord I should be able to play. Have a chromebook and I think they will work. Never played before and but I can see of taking a look through the books to understand the rules. Also seen a lot of videos on others playing. I have a few duties to perform but I'm flexible and can play almost anytime. Just need to know when.
Cool! We have two interested players, I think three would be my minimum. I'll figure things out and start DMing (heh) people if we can get this off the ground.
Sweet. I'll be ready all week just need to a day in advance to clear things up when playing.
Yo DM me I'd love to play. I've been playing D&D since 2e but my IRL friends tend to be pretty flaky so I've got time to spend. Flexible schedule because right now I'm a full-time online student so I can do my homework "whenever".
If you absolutely need another player dm me. I'm pretty busy, but open to try if needed.
I love dnd but I haven't been able to play for a while. I'm free most evenings and all weekends, and I'd love to be a part of this game if you're still looking for players. Feel free to DM me!
As i look at the various spinning plates i barely keep up, two words escape my lips, “...one more.”
I regularly DM one game, and have regrouped with another with hopes to continue.
I’ll be down to play, availability permitting. tuesdays are out, and sometimes wednesday”
Oh shit, thanks for reminding me, US East Coast, I work so probably afternoons/ evenings, possibly weekends we'd figure it out.
I'm a practically unemployed night owl, so that works for me. Lemme know if you wanna know anything more about me, so u can figure out if im a good fit for the session you have in mind.
I got a little bag of D&D dice for free a long time ago and a few years ago over Christmas when my little brother was visiting I finally got to use them for their real purpose. We got to my place after visiting relatives to find the power was out so we chopped firewood, got out my camping lanterns, and I dug through a few boxes and found the little drawstring bag of dice. Then we made up some simple rules inspired by our time playing Baulder's Gate as kids and started playing a post apocalyptic story inspired by The Road. Snow was falling outside. The fire was crackling. Dice were rattling off the table while we got into a gun battle with cannibals. I had way more fun than I thought I was gonna.
I want do it again some time, but I'm a west coastie, so I don't wanna chime in and say I'll participate because its probably not going to happen. I would love it if you posted stories from your sessions here, though! D&D stories are some of my favorite things to read.
Hell yeah, that's the best way to start, just making shit up with your friends. And weekends are a possibility, not my favorite but with covid going around there's not as much irl stuff to miss for me at least lol.
Good point, and my life is going to get a lot more busy pretty soon because, well, the plants are going to start waking up and I'm gonna go back to work tending to them. Pencil me in for a weekend session if there's an empty seat at the table <3
ugh i'd love to and have dice, but i have so many projects on the go already and the roomies wanna get a campaign going. i hope it goes excellently
I would be interested, I've got some free time. I used to play a lot back in the day, I even DMed a couple campaigns including a brief one last summer. I've never played a game online though so that would be a new experience for me.
I'm a US central zone person who wouldn't mind stretching some old D&D muscles. I'm pretty experienced for in person, but I'd be new to Roll 20.
