Soo...

If you any of these groups tickle your fancy as either a DM or player please get in touch with either myself or Regas for more details (and/or visit the player group board for more details).

My goal is to get every player group a DM... and beyond that, every unaligned player a dm slot they can see dm time in.

Lofty goals? You bet. But so worth it!

If any players feel like they share similar goals, or levels, or relgions, or time zones, or whatever - consider making a player group - It'll make it much more likely that you'll get the attention of the dm's. See Regas for details on how to get set up with your own forums.

Is there also a matchmaking for players to join these groups too, perchance? Stuff like timezones, settings, and what kind of PC is looked for / would fit.

I am hoping I could pick up DMing on Euro evenings, one day a week, starting February. Probably on BG. Some way to go still, but there's my playdate ad ;)

Player Admin Regas is also a great contact point finding out player group related stuff.

I'd totally sacrifice virgins and kittens if it means getting DMed by you on BG :D

As for that picture, that looks awesome.

I am certainly going to continue being there for 3 rivers- I do not feel like we've found our stride yet with regular sessions though. A consistent time and group would be helpful toward this end. Thanks!

Slowly, the Endless Vigil are coming back together.
pragmatic (adj.)
The opposite of idealistic is pragmatic, a word that describes a philosophy of "doing what works best."
From Greek pragma "deed," the word has historically described philosophers and politicians who were
concerned more with real-world application of ideas than with abstract notions. A pragmatic person
is sensible, grounded, and practical.
