GM Mentoring Project

You guys are either really close to winning or being slaughtered off like side characters.

I'm running two people through a solo session Investigation Modern & Pulp. I think it's public if people want to check them out.

I can help out with 5e, too. :)

I have put you on the Mentor list, @marithyme! :-)

@Remnant, looked for your modern pulp game but couldn't find it. Got a link?

I've posted my learning game, invited Marithyme and Cavejohnson. Would anyone else like to join? At least one more would be nice. game link

Added this to the list of Ongoing GM Mentoring games:
Those who expressed interest in becoming D&D 5e Mentors or guinea pigs, please give this game some support! If I didn't already have a full plate, I'd join! Best of luck, Filthy_Casual!

I've been more absent then present, lurking and visiting. I just want to say that even in the shadows I've always appreciated the community and the efforts that everyone makeup to support each other. @Jabes, @keleth and the other long time members on this thread, thanks for really making it a community. New peeps, you keep it fresh and interesting and vibrant here. I'm not active much anymore but may be able to work on some tools or scenarios if you all need another hand.

Thank you very much Jabes! I'm already getting great tips and advice!

I just came across this article by Mike Shea, Tools for New D&D Dungeon Masters which includes links to several other articles:

• Finding and Maintaining a D&D Group
• Starting Strong at your First D&D Game
• Improvisation in D&D for New Dungeon Masters
• A New Dungeon Master's Guide to Miniatures
• A New DM's Guide For Building Combat Encounters

Some of the advice is maybe more useful for face-to-face gaming at the table rather than PbP, but helpful anyway. Added to the "Helpful Resources for GM's Old & New" list in this thread's first post.

I'm a little surprised, Filthy_Casual, that you haven't been inundated with requests to join your game. Feel free to invite me if you need another player with 5e GMing experience.

I would love to help out for 5e but life and other game commitments would make that detrimental to the one learning. I may alsp check in on some of these games to get an idea of how others run there games and find new ways for me to run my own. This is a fantastic idea Jabes and I applaud your thinking.

Never stop playing

Thanks, DM_Apexwolf! I'm so grateful to all the awesome people in this community who are willing to let us pick their GM brains!

Woot! The GM Mentoring Project now has its own Discord channel on the GamersPlane server! Hope to see you there!

I'll check that out when I get home!

My apologies didn't notice this post.

The link doesn't work, @Remnant. It just goes back to https://gamersplane.com/forums/

it might be to the post where the fourm is not the game details?

Did realize the game was set to private, modern (horror surprise) is almost done. Pulp training session is at the tilt.

I'd be happy to help out for 5e if help is still needed.

Thanks, Tsavo! Is that as mentor or as guinea pig (or both)?
