in Looking for a AD&D Game in North San Antonio Area September 2016

I'm running an AD&D PbP campaign Saga of Jaraah. If your interested, I can invite you so you can see how we play and if you want to join. Kenurion

in LFG: Seattle Area January 2015

Relax! You don't need to commit to play. It's just that since OP shut down the public option for forums, you can't see our posts. If I invite you, then you can have a look and see how PbP works. If AD&D is not your thing, there are other…

in LFG: Seattle Area January 2015

Hi Bortas, I'm looking for another player for an AD&D 2nd edition PbP campaign. PbP is pretty simple. We do not meet in person, we do not play synchronously in real-time. The DM posts material on the Forum. The players post their reacti…

Yes, it is possible to run a PbP game on OP. I run such a campaign: https://saga-of-jaraah.obsidianportal.com/ I play in another: https://guardiansofthefrontier.obsidianportal.com/ You can find more examples at: https://compendium-of-pbp-o…

in How does your campaign use forums? November 2013

I have to say I'm feeling pretty good about the forums now. It's fewer clicks to hop across forum topics, and it's much easier to manually scan the posts since you don't have to keep clicking to get to the next batch of ten. Big improvement over p…

in How does your campaign use forums? November 2013

I run a PbP game on OP "Saga of Jaraah":https://saga-of-jaraah.obsidianportal.com/ Like many PbP gamers, we make extensive use of the Forums. Fortunately for us, we did not use the sub-forum feature, so we were unaffected by that disablement. …

I'm also having this problem. Can't save updated character sheets, I am able to post on the campaign forum, though. Affected campaign: http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaigns/guardians-of-the-frontier

Three suggestions for starting up a PbP game: # Round up your old table-top group. This is how I started my game "Saga of Jaraah":http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaigns/saga-of-jaraah. Our group played in college, but then scattered after grad…

in Campaign forum thoughts July 2013

Auto-go to the newest post is just as good! Actually, that's what I really want. Don't really care how they're numbered.

in Campaign forum thoughts July 2013

I like the thoughts. We use the Forums intensively since we're PbP and that's where we post. The changes you propose will help. If it's at all practical, it would be better for the posts to be ordered newest - oldest. Right now, to get to the ne…

in The future of the Items tab July 2013

I'm good with hiding/burying the items tab. Items are definitely part of my campaign, but I don't think they rate their own tab. I have more wiki pages devoted to religions and locations than items, but there are no tabs for those. Somehow I don'…

No x's or *'s. Just 2d4. You can also do 2d4+1d6+8+1d17-3d9. "Saga of Jaraah":http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaigns/saga-of-jaraah

in Looking to put together or join AD&D (any) group near London June 2013 edited June 2013

It's not the same as table top, but it works for us. It's a slower pace, but you also get to think out loud more. I also like that you can play a little bit all of the time rather than hoping the next session doesn't get canceled for whatever reas…

in Campaign Landing Page preview June 2013

I think just the icons are ok on the left hand side nav bar. I think they are intuitive enough for people to figure out pretty quickly. Also, the URL will show up when you scroll-over them like with all links, so the "text" is there. As an altern…

in Guardians of the Frontier for CotM June 2012

Ditto to all of the above. Plus it's Play-by-Post! Let's mix it up a bit and show how OP can be used for formats besides table-top. Also, PbP games usually use the forum feature for posting which means Ascendent membership which means revenue for…

in Planning Games March 2012

Bummer! I don't think it's a question of should or should not. Sounds like your players are sticking this with you whether it's fair or not. If you push it, my guess is sessions will happen a lot less frequently if at all. It also sounds like…

in Altering the Characters Page March 2012

This of course assumes you don't have characters with names starting with ZZ in which case you'll need to use the prefix ZZZ, unless of course you have characters whose names start with ZZZ...
kenurion
in Altering the Characters Page March 2012

The character list sorts alphabetically, so if you add a "ZZ" to the beginning of deceased characters' names, they will all be placed as a group at the bottom of the list. "Saga of Jaraah":http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaigns/saga-of-jaraah

Definitely too soon. I'm still on 2nd edition.

in For your consideration (color blindness) March 2012

Interesting how the examples that are difficult for color blind people are also hard on the eyes of non color blind people (like me, at least I'm pretty sure I'm not color blind)

in GM-Only NPC Tags? March 2012

Here's a work around. Type the tags in the "GM-only" section. Then you can search them using google, but restrict the search to the characters directory of your campaign. For example, type this into the google search box to search for all elves…

in Keeping track of player inventory February 2012

Nobody wants to be an inventory manager for a game, not the GM, not the players. One workaround is to claim most of the items recovered are very poor quality (used and abused) and unlikely to sell for very much. Then, assign a cash value on the as…
