Okay, so, the Forums here are being shut down, with the oft-quoted reason being that there are better places out there to handle this sort of stuff in 'today's social media' world.  I personally do not agree with that sentiment at all, and feel that places like Twitter, Facebook, Tumblr and a veritable random smorgasbord of other unconnected and disparate points of interest scattered all across the web makes for a poor alternative to a central, company-run setup.  But that's unfortunately not an issue for debate anymore.

 

So, that said, now that we're being scattered to the four winds of the internet, does anyone have any official links out there they could share?  Before, if we were looking to ask a question of someone 'official,' we at least had a central spot here at the forums where we could theoretically get a response from someone who wasn't just a random player.  But now I've heard that the various admins of the League have their own Facebook pages, twitter accounts, etc. that are being used to disseminate information out there, but i don't have any idea of where or who they are?

 

I know the new subforum over at En World is being set up so that 'official' people will eventually have their own badges, but otherwise the only external 'social media' link I saw on the "official AL website" was the one to the twitter feed, https://twitter.com/DnD_AdvLeague ... any others that people would suggest be bookmarked so we can cast our nets to get information from the actual campaign people when we have questions?

Facebook seems to be the go-to location for this kind of Q&A-style interaction.

 

I'd recommend subscribing/following the main D&D AL Facebook page (for general announcements, plus it's where Raddu26 and those folks tend to hang out) and the D&D AL page for your region (mine is US Plains, but each region has it's own page).

 

I'm also following the D&D AL Online region page, since the Online region is shaping up to be a quite different animal than other regions, as well as the Moonsea Pub, which is the Online Region's announcements page.

I was actually kinda hoping to get actual links for folks if anyone had them, since searching for "Adventurer's League' and such brings up hundreds of results, and there's little to no indiation on these that they are anything more than personal sites or local gaming groups and such.

Facebook is only good for Q&A about book campaigns and where to go for cons and advertising AL it is not for general conversation like the new Unearthed Arcana about the beginning of prestiges classes.  I tried to talk about it and they would not post it everything goes through a clearance to see it is what they want to have posted or not. So candle keep or enworld it is!

The FB group(s) are for discussion of AL specifically. Unearthed Arcana is not legal in AL, and as such - threads discussing UA content are not appropriate on the FB group. If any thread that was even remotely DnD was allowed, the FB group would end up flooded with a dozen new topics a day which would shorten their life expectancy (before they drop off the wall).

After a quick search on FB, I found this group. Given the fact that at least three of the AL admins are members of this group (possibly all of them, but the other 3 are not on my friends list so I cannot easily verify), I am of the opinion that this might be the official FB group (but I could be wrong).

There is no offiical D&D Facebook group. Any of the groups will get you answers. If you want only official answers, only Jeremy Crawford gives them, on Twitter. @JeremyECrawford
