Use the Falchion Posted February 12, 2021 Report Share Posted February 12, 2021 11 hours ago, Herowannabe said: @JesterLavorre @Use the Falchion The sign-up thread is now up over at RPGgeek.com. If you're still interested then please pop on over and pick a character to get officially signed up. As I mentioned above, the adventure supports up to 6 players and seems to play better with more players rather than fewer, so if you know anyone else who might be interested then feel free to invite them. I'm going to wait a couple days and then post an invite on ToX's facebook page for anyone else who wants to play. Waiting on the confirmation email, and then I'll be able to reply properly! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks awesome, though! FYI it is a PBP (play by post) game, so the biggest time commitment you would have to make is a few minutes each day to read new posts and make one or two posts of your own. Just saying. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still looking for players? One of my D&D games is ending so I might be interested, depending on how much commitment you expect.

Long time no see! Sure, we’d be happy to have you aboard. Speaking from past experience, playing in a PBP RP game takes a fraction of the amount of time commitment it takes to play in Sanderson Elimination game, so I’m betting you’ll be just fine. Just go here and follow the instructions to get officially signed up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herowannabe he/him Posted February 18, 2021 Report Share Posted February 18, 2021 Hey everyone (and specifically: @Kasimir @JesterLavorre @Use the Falchion) in spreading the word for this game I stumbled across the CortexRPG Discord channel, which is actually set up to run PBP games and has a bot designed specifically for Cortex dice rolling (which is what ToX uses). I confess I’m not super familiar with discord- I have used it before but not much. However, what would you think of moving our game from the forum to Discord instead of RPGgeek? Personally, I am happy to do it either way, though I do see a few advantages to using discord: For one, it already has a thriving community of Dragon Prince / ToX fans, while RPGgeek is... well... pretty dead, to be blunt. Second, as I mentioned, the Cortex dice bot is specifically designed for rolling dice. You can set it so that it automatically totals your two highest dice and then picks the best effect die out of the remaining dice. I’ve tested it out and it’s pretty slick Third, I already know of at least one player who would want to join our group if we switched to Discord, but who isn’t interested in forum play. That said, if anyone is opposed to using Discord, then I don’t want to switch to it if doing so would mean losing any of you as players. #noplayerleftbehind Thoughts? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm fine with Discord if we aren't using voice chat. It's a personal problem but I just have a great deal of difficulty focusing on pure audio, which has given me lots of grief throughout my university days. I'd say I'm more likely to respond swiftly on Discord too 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I just got some news about a test I need to take, and due to that and everything that's happening in Texas I'm actually going to have to pass. (Assuming that last spot wasn't taken lol!)

Good luck with your test and with the rolling blackout situation! Once things settle down if you decide you’d still like to play let us know- there’s a good chance we’ll be able to let you take over for someone else who needs to step down. Such is the nature of PBP games. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flyingbooks Posted March 9, 2021 Report Share Posted March 9, 2021 I just finished watching the show for the first time and it was amazing. I love all of the characters, especially Aaravos, even though he's basically a living ulterior motive and he'll probably be the final villain. He's just so mysterious and looks so awesome and beautiful. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
