D&D / Pathfinder Summer Game?

[Undine]

Hello, everyone! This summer is an especially quiet one for me, and I'm craving a game of D&D. I was wondering, would anyone be interested in starting a weekly campaign? It would be during the weekends, and probably either Friday or Saturday nights. We would be using the Roll20 virtual tabletop. Anyone interested?

I'm using Eastern Standard Time. Even if we're on opposite ends of the world, though, the times still might work!

Yeah, sure! I'll give it a try. Need timezone to line up though...

[FiziKx]

Sure.

[Undine]

Awesome! I guess I'll mention the timezone in the first post...

It may be possible but it's hard to tell with the time converters... Basically your 7pm Friday would be my 9am Saturday. Hm!!

Do you think playing early on a Saturday would be inconvenient? We can also move it up to five hours later depending on how late everyone wants to stay up. And alternatively, we could start earlier in the morning if that's more convenient. Once more people are interested I can make a doodle poll on potential times!

As it stands, that time is probably fine with me!

I have no idea how to play but I'd love to learn. If you guys like noobs, that is.

Noobs are perfect! A few of the others playing are also beginners, so that's fine Right now we're thinking about 9:00 EST on friday nights, does that sound good to you?

I'll have to check my work schedule for next month when I come in tonight, if it's up, but this past month I only worked one Friday night, so preemptively, sounds good.

Woo hoo! This is exciting.

One heads up is that you will want to be able to commit to the game. It's not impossible to play without a player one week, but if it happens often it becomes really difficult because we will all have experience and loot, and will have RP experience as well - so you'd be jumping into the next match awkwardly "hi guys sorry I fell asleep in the tunnel back there! What's going on? Oh you just killed the Mage King?".

Once you play the first match you'll understand

This isn't directed at you Rebma, it was a general comment I was wanting to make.

Yeah I probably should have mentioned this as well LOL For the games that I've played, the typical amount of time we spend per session is usually 3 to 4 hours. There are groups that even spend a whole day or weekend playing.

It's called the cone of silence. It's possible to manage, but you'll basically just be a NPC who sometimes talks.
