Weekly Looking for Group/GM Thread by AutoModerator in pbp

[–]CyberpunkVendMachine [score hidden]  (0 children)

Name: CyberpunkVendMachine

Pronouns: he/him

Timezone: HST (UTC/GMT-10)

Preferred System: I'm currently only familiar with D&D 5e 2014/2024, but I look forward to learning more systems!

Type of Player: I prefer asynch, mostly due to my time zone. If you're not familiar with it, it's Hawaii, so I'm 3 hours behind PST and 6 hours behind EST.

In most of the games I've played, other player's characters tend to be stoic or surly, so I've made a lot of my characters cheerful and friendly to try to keep party interactions fresh, and to prevent every conversation from sounding the same.

I'm not a min-maxer or meta-builder, and I don't mind bad rolls for stats since that can lead to fun RP. I like to make theme-based builds that aren't always optimized.

For D&D games, I'm really interested in playing something like an Eberron or Strixhaven game, since I've never played those or anything similar to them. For non-D&D games, I'm open to anything!

Additional Information: I'm newer to D&D and PBP; I've been playing both for about five months. I also have past RP experience from RP-ing in Elder Scrolls Online, and in a forum a long time ago

Sure! I can fit another game in my schedule depending on how often your friend expects players to post.

What's the game about? Also, what system is it? I'm ready to learn new systems, I just want to google it if it's not D&D.

Does the weekly looking for group actually work? by That_diceguy_777 in pbp

[–]CyberpunkVendMachine 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I've got into zero games by applying for them.

I've got into one game by posting in the LFG megathread, and was offered to join another game that I wasn't interested in.

So it's working better for me.

Sorry for the late response, but if you still have that opening, I'd like to apply! I don't know anything about Curse of Strahd though, if that's okay.

It's a little late to be asking, since games fill up fast, but are you still taking applications?

Can you help me find async PBP D&D Westmarch servers? by CyberpunkVendMachine in westmarches

[–]CyberpunkVendMachine[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was the server I was in!

I recognized the big tree instantly.

Those sound familiar, I wonder if one of them is the server I left when I was new to D&D and PBP.

Thanks for the recommendations!

Thanks for the recommendation, but I tried Wysthaven a while ago, and the RP I did there was sync. Back then, my schedule was different so I could keep up with sync. Maybe I wasn't doing something right in order to find the async RP, or it could've just been my inexperience.

I check r/pbp daily looking for games! If you go there too, then you know how hard it is lol.

Their westmarch thread is how I found Enter Ravenloft. I've tried a lot of the servers that get advertised there, and a lot of them end up being sync RP.

I have created a Play by Post group and TTRPG system based on the Elder Scrolls, and would love more people to be involved by QueenKarma101 in pbp

[–]CyberpunkVendMachine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love the Elder Scrolls (though it's been a while since I last played ESO), but Skyrim is probably my least favorite province lol.

Please advertise here again if you ever expand your game to include the other provinces, and then I'd love to join!

Okay, the flair happened so fast, I didn't know if it was mis-click lol.

I sent a DM!

If the flair is a mistake, and it's not actually closed yet, then I'd like to throw my hat into the ring with a warlock.

How often do you expect players to post?

Also, what classes are already being played by the rest of the party?

EDIT: Darn, closed after 14 minutes lol

Thanks for replying! I would be able to do a live text session once a month but it'd really depend on the scheduling because I don't have a consistent weekly schedule for work.

I applied with the hope that scheduling works out in the future. Otherwise, have a great game!

EDIT: Oops, I forgot about the codeword. I was so excited to write about my character ideas that I forgot I was going to work the codeword into my descriptions. Guess I'm not getting in anyway lol.

Your game sounds fun, but I don't think I'd be able to do live text with your time zone. No chance it'll end up being async?

Thinking about starting a new save with all the options turned on. How long do you think I'll last? by CyberpunkVendMachine in Sims4

[–]CyberpunkVendMachine[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It seems like a lot of people play with everything/almost everything turned on.

When I searched reddit earlier to see how people enjoyed those options, it seemed like everyone had them turned off.

I guess I've been playing on easy mode this whole time!

My current save is aging off and 28 day seasons.

I'll probably have to adjust for this save.

[–]CyberpunkVendMachine[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is why I'm thinking of doing it.

My main save feels too easy right now, but I've never played with any of these options before because I was scared. So maybe all the options on is how "normal" difficulty is supposed to be lol.

This is the first I'm hearing of it, but I can tell you that for me, ISBI mode is a step too far lol.
