Spalls is doing this all the time in comp.sys.ibm.pc.games.action, which for some reason is the only one of those computer game groups that seem to get any kind of real engagement. And I was thinking... why don't we do that here in rec.games.frp.misc as well?

 I tried to do that years ago, and the problem was no one was doing much, of course that was after the group had mostly died.

Well, that's why I will try to do this a bit now. Maybe we can actually get some discussion going again.

 

So, what have you been playing in March 2024?

 None.  I haven't played or run anything in more than a year now.  My last was January of last year running Dungeon Robber (the tabletop version) on Rpol which does play by post.  Unfortunately I burned out on it as I was posting way too frequently. I also found a lot of flaws that were irritating to me, I wanted to fix but would likely require a reboot, and I was down to 3 players who really only wanted to play solo.

What's Dungeon Robber?

 It seems to be getting harder and harder to get players who are interested in non-5e play.  Or maybe I've picked up bad habits and am no longer a good DM.  I'm not sure.  Ah for the days I was running 2e with 7 players for years on end.
 

I sure hope not, I still haven't jumped on the 5e bandwagon. I just don't feel enthused enough about the game to actually buy the books (or even read that far into material that's in the public.
