11-10-07, 02:32 PM How would you find a decent D&D group to play in? I moved to Arizona a year ago, and used to run campaigns constantly where I am moved from in Georgia. I've got a couple players (my current roommate and one of his friends), but was hoping for one or two more players for a campaign i've been planning.

So when/if you move to a new area, how would you go about getting plugged in?

I suppose I could have titled it as a player or DM to a new area.. ^^;;

And the meetup.com isn't bad.

11-11-07, 08:41 AM I've tried a lot of things with limited success. The places online mentioned above might work. Here is what I've done.
1. Place flyers up at comic stores and book stores or game stores if you have them.
2.Place flyers at the local library.
3.Ask your friends to recruit a friend.

That's about the best I can come up with, aside from going to a con and meeting people there, which has been suggested to me.

Good luck finding more gamers!
