Hello there!

Hi gamers!

I’m excited to join the community and learn a bit about PBP in particular. I play DND 5e and have some experience with a couple Star Wars TTRPGs, but none were PBP. I love GMing (though I’m new to it) and I have a background in drama education and digital content development (music, copy, video, graphic).

I’m very interested in answering the question: can a group of busy folks (including parents) play a fairly casual game of DND while keeping it organized, interesting and consistent?

Hopefully with a couple PBP games under my belt, I’ll be ready to GM a game or two.

Best,
TL

Happy gaming!

Welcome, Thunder_Lungz. You'll be happy to know that there are campaign games on here that have completed after three, four, or five years. I hope you find games that spark your desire to engage in more!

Oh excellent! Thank you for the information and encouragement!

Looking forward to learning and contributing!

I believe the answer is 'yes'. Does that help? :)

Welcome!

Welcome to GP!

Hi TL,

Looking forward to finding a game you GM post in Gamers Tavern or playing with you another one. Welcome.

Thanks friends! Looks like a great community! Thanks for the welcome!

You totally can! Welcome to GP!

Welcome, Thunder_Lungz! Here to tell you it can totally be done. =]

Hi Thunder_Lungz! I originally joined GP in 2016 with the same question. Many games and characters later, I am happy to say it can be done!

Greetings and Salutations!

Woohoo! I’m jumping into my first game and can’t wait to see you all in the postverse!

Welcome to the site!

Welcome Aboard!

Welcome! And yes, as others have mentioned, PbP can fill that niche for casual play at your own pace.

Welcome :)

Welcome! I'm delighted to see that you're already in a game! Good for you - strike while the iron's hot!

Yeah! Thanks for the warm welcome, all!

I look forward to playing some DnD 5e (maybe a couple of different settings), and something Star Wars (set in a pre-Disney universe). I think I’ll be able to handle games that post 1/day. If anything like that comes up and you need a player with a fresh perspective, let me know!
