Anyone interested in a playbypost using ACKS?

OK. I’m in. Let’s see if I can take it as well as I dish it out.

I’d be interested in playing if you still have places.

I’m interested

I’m game, as long as I don’t have to install yet more software. How will this work, technically speaking?

So… Do you think he forgot about us?

I was wondering that myself. Doesn’t say much for the potential length of a campaign…

I found it strange that the G+ post where he announced the PbP got deleted a handful of hours after its creation. I wonder whats up…

Aw, and here I had gotten my hopes up. :frowning:

Ha! Accidentally spazzed on the ‘Save’ button.

Well, maybe one of you guys want to spring something from the ashes of this thread. One of you interested in running a PbP? I’d love to play in a sandbox campaign, seeing as I’m always the GM, never the player. And it would give me something to look at throughout the work day.

I’m considering it, but I’m already running one PbP game, and I was kind of hoping to play as well.

And then there’s the matter of preparation as well. I’ve got a nice region map and a few city names. I’ve got a couple of dungeons and locations, too. So, it’s not insurmountable, especially if you guys are familiar with ACKs and I don’t have to explain everything and keep track of all of your information.

Also, I’m not super-familiar with RPOL.net.

So, if somebody else wants to jump on this, great, but I’ll see if I’ve got time for this.

How are you running your PbP game?

Here’s my current game:
ACKs Red Tide Campaign on DnDorks.com

Pretty much just a regular forum, though there are features like PC avatars per thread, and links to a “Character Valut

Not perfect, but it’s worked so far.

I am currently in a PbP campaign: http://www.autarch.co/campaign/18 and we use Google Groups for the mails (I think RPOL has pretty much the same features) and a wiki for bookkeeping and stuff (http://campaignwiki.org/wiki/TheRoadToDwimmermount/HomePage)

I currently got my hands full with my own campaign (http://www.autarch.co/campaign/19) so I certainly cant start to GM in a new one…
I wonder if it would be possible to mesh a normal one with PbP.

Hmmm
I will have to ponder that…

Sorry. No I have not forgotten about this. I was out of town on vacation. I want to establish a full background page, including character creation instructions before posting again on this. I jumped the gun before having better information available online for folks to decide on characters from. Give me a little time and I’ll re-post here with more particulars. (hopefully within two work days) There is also one interested party on rpol.net that replied there so we have enough to play a campaign if folks are still interested. Reply if still interested please.

So, my “setting” is mostly a non-setting. Very little information beyond your standard “remnants of empire / points of light” thing. Also Dwarves are ancestor-worshipers, Elves have black, soulless eyes and feral souls, and there’s a relatively recent thing called “shadow-dragons” that hide in the dark and kill without sound.

I’ve also been doubling treasure found, because PCs advance slowly enough as it is, and PbP just makes that worse.

Anyway, I’m not an old-school expert, but if people are still interested, it looks like I’m willing to do this.

Oops. Slow-ninja’ed!

Ignore my previous post.

Yes, I’m still interested in PeterRobbins’ campaign.

Again, apologies for previous lack of replies. The core classes of course will be available, but I’m would like to get four or more campaign classes up before opening it up for submissions. Also, I will be utilizing rpol.net to play by post. The very basic skeleton of that game is online here -

I would hold off please doing a “Request To Join” there until I get more detailed campaign information up online. Please give me two more days to gather everything up more proper-like.

Still interested :slight_smile:
