This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Recruiting for possible playtest of WoW RPG project.

So, as I mentioned in the thread on the main RPG forum, I am designing a tabletop RPG based on the Warcraft games, mainly focusing on the current iteration.

I would like to actually playtest the game before I sit down to pen the postmortem that will serve as the main thrust of my final paper, so I thought I would ask here if anyone would be interested in playing a short session via IRC of a new game.  My IRL player base is mostly retarded, and several of them are openly hostile to WoW, so I'm sort of confined to online if I want to get this done.

Playtest session would most likely be this Friday or Saturday, depending on completion rate.  If you have a particular class/race combo in mind feel free to post that as well as I may then be able to prioritize certain class designs based on what is needed for the session.

If interested, post here.

Depending on timing and such, I'd be willing to help. Just started playing WoW again about three weeks ago so that'd probably be helpful.

I am interested. Let me know what times and I'll see if it conflicts with my raiding.;p

I worked on something similar, but eventually gave up because I couldn't (and rightly so) translate the MMO experience to table top.

If either of you nice folks are still interested, I'm going to try and round up a game this Saturday.

Having read the DoW alpha document, I must say it look intriguing. Is there still a spot in this? What fashion will it take (board, chat, etc)?

I'll probably be doing it IRC somewhere.  I considered using gametable though.
