Has anyone heard of this shit before? Is anyone else interested in this? For the uninitiated: it's a method of playing traditional pen-and-paper RPGs over teh interwebz. Here is an example of people recording tabletop gaming at an actual tabletop: Here is a site that features audio recordings of people (Pantsless Gamers! What an awesome name!) playing the same game system remotely: -[link]- The level of "virtual tabletop" sophistication depends on the game system, but the Dragone Age pen-and-paper seems very simple. So, before I get too far ahead of myself, does this interest anyone else? I'm game for handling GM duties. P.S. there's lots of opportunity for buttsechs |

Watching this on my lunch. Will let you know if it's enough to break my addiction to Skyrim. | ||

Haha to be honest I'm playing D&D with my brothers and some friends every Thursday, and I'd be open to doing another night. 3.5 only, however. I would be open to DM as well, I am always up to exercising the creativity for a campaign. |

A thousand thanks for the link. I stumbled upon that website ages ago and started listening to their World's Largest Dungeon podcast but I lost their URL and didn't remember the podcast name until now. Also I don't know if this is the program you would use but it may interest you if it's not. -[link]- Edited Wed Mar 20 2013, 09:30PM |

I would be open to DM as well, I am always up to exercising the creativity for a campaign. Well, this is intriguing. D&D 3.x is ice water to my boner just because I never really enjoyed it in any of the licensed video games (NWN 1&2 is all I can think of now) but I don't have any direct experience with pen & paper D&D since second edition so who am I to judge? That said, if you're anti 4E then I completely understand because I listen to a few podcasts of 4E campaigns and combat is a fucking nightmare. I'm not exclusively interested in D&D but that may be what it takes to get other people interested. It's pretty cool that you have DM/GM experience, too. gLiTch wrote ...

I understand the time constraint thing, but you may want to consider that it doesn't have to be more than one week(end?) night every one to five-ish weeks. That's really not asking for a lot of time and certainly much less than most people put in for CS here. Here is my response to scope. I can't quote him correctly for some reason: You are most certainly welcome! I didn't listen to all of The Pantless DA RPG audio because the main guy (Danny?) is a massive, throbbing prick, and I have a pretty low tolerance for listening to assholes rant on and on (myself excluded, of course). Overall Pantsless is fun group and I enjoy listening to just about everyone but that Danny cat. If you're interested in epic/saga type D&D then Thursday Knights is where it's at: -[link]- I believe they just wrapped up a level 10-30 campaign over the course of 3+ years and hundreds of hours of recorded play. Very cool stuff because the main DM puts a lot of production value into their recordings. As far as us actually doing any of this shit, I only see dito as being interested so far. I'm still game--anyone else? |

well i can say i just watched the whole thing... that would be pretty cool. Ive beat dragon age a few times, its a great game (blood mage all the way... nightmare mode). I have been wanting to get into a D&D type game but never had the group of people to do it with. Seems too smart for the bunch of potheads I hang out with... oh wait... |
