Interest Check: DnD Campaign, Chat-Based, Bi-Weekly, Start time TBD

[Pogo]

I use discord pretty often. The app has access to all sorts of useful features and sharing pictures like a map would be pretty simple. another bonus to disc would be the use of bots. My buddys on my regular server use a bot called Avrae. Its a dnd bot preloaded with codes like dice rolling and character creation.
discordapp.com: Discord - Free voice and text chat for gamers
The bot is based on the 5e system and is loaded with a library of monsters and races from dnd but since your campaign is running new creatures and classes im sure the use of dice rolling in chat would be good enough.

That's cool! I added it to the server just now. I'll check out its features. You're right, I'm mostly just going to use the die. But I'm also going to use a lot of monster and monster templates from the bestiary, so it works out. Thank you!

I have volunteerwork for 2-3 hours on Mondays and Tuesdays starting at 9am and on Fridays from 9:30am to 11:am and i have housework afterwards, so anywhere from 2pm to 6pm on weekdays works. On weekends, Sundays work better for me, but i don't really have a set time for that day.

Have any of you ever used Obsidian Portal? And if so what do you think of it? It's features include a wiki and a calendar, which I I think would be really useful. Its free but it sounds too good to be true.

No i've never heard of it. I can look into it if its preferred.

So, having tried my hand at Obsidian Portal's Textile interface and spending an hour trying to use css classes and failing because it took me that long to realize that I need to pay for that feature, and then spending thirty minutes trying to make the default headers not look stupid, I decided that I'm better off just posting my stuff to these forums. I'll make a new topic with the relevant documentation when I get home tonight.

So I've given it a lot of thought. And I am now sure that I won't be able to run this game on weekdays due to my work commitments. Or rather, if I end up doing something on a weekday night then I would only be able to promise up to two hours of game time.

The best time that works for me is Fridays from 7 to 10 EST. Somethings I'd be able to stretch that. Unfortunately that time only works well for a few of you that I had spoken to.

I also think that I'll be available on Sundays around noon due to another game finishing up, but I need to wait a few days to be sure.

Right now the time is Friday starting in two weeks. Please let me know as soon as possible if this does or doesn't work for you. If I can't get enough players online at the same time then I'll try to work something else out. Thanks, guys.

Friday evenings are cool with me, since my volunteerwork is in the mornings from 9:30 to 11. Sundays also work for me.
