I recently was accepted into ALFA ( active player number 322 Wee!)
I am wasgreg.... I play under ID wasagreg
I am looking for a server that is right for me. Comments, advice, and greetings are quite welcome ( and encouraged )
My times of play.
I am an addict. I can play most every night from midnight to 3:30 am EST. I ~think~ that is GMT-5, but not really sure. Most of my Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays are wide open. However, if I have to miss one day one the weekend, it usually means I am away and miss the entire weekend. I am told these are bad times for weekdays. But, as that is my normal sleep/work/ fun times, not gonna really change. Also, for play time, other people on the server is more important to me than DM's on the server. Maybe that will change sometime, but I like to meet peeps.
My play style.
I am an addict. I love the roleplay aspect. But, I do need action. I can roleplay for hours on end if I am doing something. Making a camp, searchng a barn for a coin, climbing trees looking for the rare Yellowbreasted Hornbeaked Sembian Swallow's nests to gather eggs for a potion to cure hair loss. These things are fine and I can have fun with that. I am worse at RolePlay when it is sitting at a table for hours just chattin'. Strange, cus RL I can do it easily. I am not opposed to combat, but I do not ~need~ it. I can do the tavern chat. I just would not play if every day was tavern chat. So that is very important to me in a server as well.
My background.
I am an addict. I started playing pnp RpG's in the early 80's. AD&D was my first game. Played it at Ball State University student center in one of the cafeteria rooms turned over to a RPG club. I have played OOOODLES of different RPG's some good. Some oh oh oh so bad. I play with a regular gaming group. However, we find it harder and harder to get together. Also, our "character style" has become stagnant. RL has also affected it. I played NWN for a long time, several servers, primarily Taliv and offshoots from it. Was lured to the MMORPG Lineage2. Beautiful graphics, but no roleplay. Over time, I began to miss NWN more and more. I came back and played several servers for a few minutes to a few hours. I settled on CEPSciFi Itropa. I truely enjoyed it. And still do. But Roleplay is much more "lite" there. In other words, my addiction wasnot being fed. So stumbled on OAS Alfa.....
I have thought upon The Silver Marches... it is a reccomended server, DM's are supposed to be focusing on it this month. and most of all while I was in RP101, Ludo in the guise of her OAS bard was encouraging me to play there.
I also have met a few friends on OAS that play on other servers. Rangerxlt and treehouse. They play on other servers and I would enjoy playin' with them again as other toons for sure.
Truthfully, I do not worry about making friends though. This is a very friendly community. Even if the DM's delight in killing of my toons

Please give input. Hi's are nice and welcome. But a hi and some advice would be even better.
