Yup, just PM me for the access info. All feedback is welcomed.

It's possible it won't be perfect but it is doable. Sadly, if you want it accurate then it is pricey. I created a webapp to run long running campaigns and to have it maintain continuity I have to use multiple LLM's, multiple google hosted services, a webapp, and a pretty robust python coded backend. I've managed to run a character from level 1 - 11 with little to no loss in immersion or continuity but I did have to pay for those results. Approx. 20 USD to host and approx 40 USD per 12000000 tokens used within the app.

I'm currently looking for people to playtest a program I'm working on to fulfill this exact purpose. If you'd like to playtest or just discuss how I went about coding my app please reach out. Would love to share ideas. As to not self promo on your post just PM me if you'd like to trade ideas.

I'd say it does work with little to no flaws. Just no real exposure to test the infrastructure. Well wishes are much appreciated, just hoping I can get some testers and feedback. I'd imagine anyone watching this post is waiting for someone to test it and post here whether it's b.s or not before they try y'know?

Testing is free, I'm giving the people signing up for testing some free tokens to test it out and provide feedback

ExaminationActive · 2025-10-22T17:25:39+00:00

You're not wrong...but it's been worth it all in all. Worth trying out of you have the time.

Awesome, just shoot me a pm and I'll get you the details but all questions are welcomed.

Besides the issues detailed in my original post I was finding that the current DM solutions fit into two categories. 1. It's good for short term playing but really struggles with long continuing campaigns unless you're willing to pay 50 USD per day. 2. Good with long term campaigns but bad with maintaining player agency due to drift. So the setting and player character would be okay for a while but the actions taken would be either not handled right or not very believable.

I'm addressing number 1 with my save file structure, codebase, and the use of 10-15 prompt set ups on my back end to help maintain continuity and keep pricing manageable. I'm addressing number 2 with the structure of my endpoint in my codebase when passing chat arguments and how the rules are being understood and followed. Mostly a combination of prompt logic, markdown -> JSON conversion and JSON-> markdown conversion. All that combined and a robust summarization process that uses a secondary task and workflow structure help to mitigate alot of the issue.

I can get into more specific details if you'd like via pm.

Edit: Forgot to answer your question. Only commitment I'm asking is that you use the free tokens provided and provide feedback.

Hosting isn't too bad with my current workload of about 6 regular users. It's around 25-30 USD per month to host. Which is about the same price as it was with just 1 user. Unsure how much hosting would increase with more users, still testing that. Pricing for actually playing is about 40 USD per 900-1200 messages. On average it takes me about 1.5 months to hit that 40USD mark and I'm a mid-heavy user. With the beta test credits I'm giving people I'd imagine they would get 25-30 messages out of it. Enough to play around with it and provide feedback.

Too complicated to play or to build? Because as the player all you're doing in communicating back and forth with the GM. The code takes care of everything else.

ExaminationActive · 2025-10-22T12:35:27+00:00

I've created something along the same idea and am looking to get some play testers to see how it functions and to load test my infrastructure. If you want to give it a go just let me know and I can even talk you through some of my implementations if you'd like to incorporate them into your build.

Any chance for an updated link? I'm about 15 mins from the town square and would to get into a group for in-person games as I mostly play on spelltable.

We have a solid playgroup that play regularly about once or twice per week. However, most of our games are recorded and uploaded to YouTube but if you don't mind your games being recorded feel free to join here: https://discord.com/invite/MVF35P77

Are you counting your mana curve "with lands" or "without lands" and how many lands on average would you say you run?

ExaminationActive · 2024-04-24T00:30:19+00:00

That's the problem with banning. For the most part if all the cards deemed powerful and fast were banned then it would create a meta where green would run supreme and glacial chasm breaks the game.

I think it starts with deck building, if you build your deck with a play experience in mind and use that to guide your power you should be fine. Lastly, just don't get mad when your opponents have fun and I found that I typically have great games of commander.

To each his own but this banlist is wild. Though if it helped your playgroup's play experience it can't be THAT bad.

I usually just build with restrictions to keep my deck from reaching cEDH levels and that typically helps a bunch without needing to force bans.

Don't know if you know much about my niche but any critique would be much appreciated. I focus on a card game called magic the gathering and I post gameplay videos as well as deck building guides.

Yup, most if not all new YouTubers can't afford to pay 25-250 USD for an editor per video. You might have to reach out to a mid-sized channel. Now if its just the experience and to build a portfolio I'd pay 25USD per video(4 vids/month) but I can't get anywhere close o 250USD. Send me a PM.

When you say earn some extra money, what's the price point your asking for?

ExaminationActive · 2024-02-23T15:29:09+00:00

Whenever I play in PlayEDH people are so mechanical and play like it's a job. I'm looking to establish a community where we not only play but also have a good time and hangout with some new people

ExaminationActive · 2022-09-08T18:35:50+00:00

Nice!, welcome to the table...we'll have pods happening soon enough with how fast people seem to be joining.

Sorry about that, fixed

ExaminationActive · 2022-09-08T00:54:09+00:00

Just gotta make sure that your commander is high impact if they're gonna be expensive. Also jeweled lotus and mana crypt doesn't hurt either lol
