#1 Robin_Hoodlum Jun 23, 2011 22:20:26	Yeah. I am not looking for a group to play D&D in the Pittsburgh area. If you don't want to play D&D, let's get together! (Will I get banned for "disruption" because of my frivolous thread?... Even though it is in jest?...We'll see...)
#2 Robin_Hoodlum Jun 23, 2011 23:39:30	Funny. Shame I'm in CA. A shame indeed.
#3 pigknight Jun 23, 2011 23:53:58	Don't a ton of us OTTers have no group? Why don't we make a PbP? DM is nose goes! /nose
#4 Robin_Hoodlum Jun 23, 2011 23:58:20	Don't a ton of us OTTers have no group? Why don't we make a PbP? DM is nose goes! /nose  I only understaned about 30% of what you posted... and it's still funny! Right?
#5 dirtyfrank Jun 23, 2011 23:59:43	Don't a ton of us OTTers have no group? Why don't we make a PbP? That would be cool but i can't be DM since i don't have much time for it especially once school starts up again

#7 pigknight Jun 24, 2011 0:09:37	Then quickly /nose before the other OTTers do!
#8 Robin_Hoodlum Jun 24, 2011 0:16:08	Then quickly /nose before the other OTTers do! OK, it will help me to understand if you tell me  what the "/" means. I thought it meant "no" or "stop", but what does "no" nose, or "stop" nose mean? ... Or do I need to regularly communicate like this...  "l337 n!&&@ LuLz !!0one!!!111!eleven!!1!1!" ... to understand?
#9 Crimson_Concerto Jun 24, 2011 0:22:54	I've tried play-by-posts before. They're always fun right up until the first combat encounter, and then they hit a brick wall and usually fall apart because one battle can take, like, a month. =/ If it's entirely role-play, though...

So /nose is how you virtually put your hand/hoof/paw over your nose.
#11 EscherEnigma Jun 24, 2011 1:33:54	Why don't we make a PbP? We tried that, remember?
#12 pluisjen Jun 24, 2011 2:27:24	Since I live in the not Pittsburg area, I'd love to play not D&D with you
#13 The_Silversword Jun 24, 2011 2:34:40	Hey! I live in the not Pittsburg area too!
#14 zombie_babies Jun 24, 2011 9:45:30	Umm ... *un-bump*?
#15 ADHadh Jun 24, 2011 10:11:12	Umm ... *un-bump*?  Fail.
#16 bone_naga Jun 24, 2011 12:47:20	I'm not big on PbP. I prefer Maptool or a similar VTT but it requires a little more coordination and planning on everyone's part. But don't worry R_H, I will totally not play D&D with you.
#17 ADHadh Jun 24, 2011 12:50:03	I can not play a lot of games with you, RH! We can start by not playing D&D, MtG or Settlers of Catan.
#18 pigknight Jun 24, 2011 13:10:37	Why don't we make a PbP? We tried that, remember? Oh Escher! We were young and inexperianced! It was too much and we went too fast. Can you give us another chance?
#19 EscherEnigma Jun 24, 2011 13:35:04	You're still young and inexperienced.
#20 dirtyfrank Jun 24, 2011 13:56:50	Then quickly /nose before the other OTTers do! /nose I always saw the "/" in the sense of bbcode which would be put at the ending part of the code. Why don't we make a PbP? We tried that, remember? several times. it failed several times too.
#21 Robin_Hoodlum Jun 24, 2011 17:06:15	You're still young and inexperienced.

They're always fun right up until the first combat encounter, and then they hit a brick wall and usually fall apart because one battle can take, like, a month. =/ If it's entirely role-play, though... I could "DM" all RP. I've got a setting ready that just needs a stable thing, and it's in the right place to make things interesting. Best of all, I actually have time now that school's out.

#24 Timmeh Jun 25, 2011 0:33:40	Combat only takes a while if you've got players/DMs who aren't willing to do other people's actions if they don't respond within a reasonable time. It also helps to streamline certain things (you don't need everyone to roll initiative, you just need the DM to roll it. You don't need to have the player who is granted the attack to roll the MBA, you just need to have the granter roll the MBA.) Combats usually take a week to a week and a half in a good group. It's not too time consuming, if you can post here every day, I'm sure that PbP is just fine.
#25 Robin_Hoodlum Jun 25, 2011 9:50:44	You're still young and inexperienced. iFrame Removed Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh.... HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
#26 Cpt_Micha Jun 25, 2011 9:54:04	@ Pig and Escher. we could so Not play 40k, and I would so not let people borrow my armies if they didn't have one of their own! :-p (seriously I have a Tau force, an IG force and Necron force.)
