LRRPG - Loading Ready RolePlaying Group

Postby Senstaku » 02 Feb 2015, 20:36

An idea that came up in the chat during Beej's Backlog - would members of the Runners be willing to band together to form Pen and paper roleplaying groups and sessions via the internet? Playing via Skype or Google Hangouts on a semi-regular basis, and doing so under the unified banner of LRRPG?

Please voice your opinions now! If enough people are interested in making this a regular thing, let's make it happen!

Would it be a vote on system and setting or vote on GM/DM and they would then mystery box it?

Khador - What I was thinking, and it's something we'd come up with as a group, was setting up multiple groups with a different GMs - we pick three or four systems we all want to play together, and then whoever is most comfortable with GMing each system would do so. If we can get it going on a regular enough basis, we might be able to turn it into a series of fanstreams too.

If thats a case may I make some system suggestions:

D&D 5th edi since its rather easy to get into

World of Darkness (its actually pretty simple compared to others roll a d10 and get above 6-8)

Finally unhallowed metropolis (Any game set in a post ZOMBIE apocalyptic future Steam punk Victorian setting is just amazing)

I'm not particularly familiar with most systems, but I would love to jump in a Pathfinder or Mutants and Masterminds game if one's being run.

I agree on 5th ed and World of Darkness; I'm loving 5th edition so far, and WoD is a system I've always wanted to play.

I've never heard of Unhallowed metropolis or Mutants and Masterminds before, but if someone is familiar enough to GM it I'd be happy to give it a go.

We've got enough people interested that I think we can start checking to see whose schedules match up with whose. If you're interested, let's post up our availability. If we can get at least four or five of us with similar availabilities, we can get one group started.

I'm available Tues, Thurs, and Fri during the day before 3PM Eastern time, and again on Friday at 7PM Eastern Time.

I think this has been attempted before, but have fallen apart for some reason or another.

I'm willing to take up a game, but my schedule can change roughly every 3 - 6 months. Right now, I have Wednesday & Thursdays off (although I could easily trade Thursday for Tuesday @ work since I'm on a alternative schedule compared to my team, which they may willing adjust), but it's subject to change as new "phone monkeys" get trained (& hopefully stick around) to grow the teams as needed.

The only hazard here is that I'm in Central Time (UTC-6), so it may cause some issues if we're scattered across the globe... but we'll find a way to deal with that as we try to make groups.

I live on Eastern Time (UTC-5), but my actual living hours are more like Pacific Time (UTC-8), so I can sort of play on either of those. I would prefer a weekend session, but the only day I'm almost certainly opposed to is Wednesday, as that's my local store's open gaming night.

So, of the schedules we've gotten so far:

Thursdays at 8AM UTC-5 is 9PM UTC+8 and 7AM UTC-6 which works for myself, theknightofiron, TStodden, and presumably eostby. We can adjust the actual hour in further discussion, but that's four players potentially - just needs a DM if that works for everyone.

Khador is only available on Saturdays, which I am not available on, I don't know if TStodden is available on saturdays or not from what he said, but eostby prefers saturdays to weekdays. The knightofiron is available some saturdays so I don't know if he'd prefer to be a part of the saturday group.

That's two, potentially three or four for a saturday group as well.

Anybody else have a similar availabilities?

Thursday 8am is probably while I'm asleep, so that's not really good for me. The Saturday idea sounds good, though.

could probably swing Saturdays
at the moment i work every second Saturday but that will be ending in a month or two
provided we set for the other Saturday (not this Saturday next Saturday)
and do fortnightly games it should be fine
Thursday is fine for me
thanks

I would love to participate here, I can do some Saturdays. I'm actually free most evenings. I mean, I'm busy, but very flexible.

(Unrelated: I was very close to accidently submitting that post as "I'm busty, but very flexible." I'm a little sorry I didn't.)

So just checking are we going with a weekly/fortnightly/monthly game since that will also say what will be easier for people.

I'm up for any of those timeframes as well; Fortnightly will probably be the easiest? It can even be different for each group if it makes a difference for the players.

So I think we're pretty solid on these systems:

D&D 5th Ed
World of Darkness

And we could probably do all of this via Roll20 - We may wish to create a google circle or hangout group for LRRPG

For 5th ed, there are a couple of pre-build modules we could run if people don't want to create something - we just need to decide on who wants to DM.

As to WoD - I'm not familiar with the system enough to recommend any modules, so can someone else recommend?
