Recruiting for new players (PbP on rpg.net)

[zedturtle]

So my smaller group over on rpg.net has finished up playtesting The Theft of the Moon and a few of the players are wanting to continue on. So we're talking about what to do next, and wanting some more players to join us.

If you might be interested, check out this post here... it explains my LMing style and approach.

To elaborate a bit, the first order of business is to vote on what players would like to do:

A. Playtest Dead of Winter, the semi-sequel to The Theft of the Moon.
B. Play as an open sandbox.
C. Play new characters from Rivendell and play a higher powered game set in the current timeframe.
D. Like C, but circa TA 1600; a bit more open and epic.
E. Play new Hobbit characters, starting out from Hobbiton in the current day.
F. Sort of like E, but set circa TA 1600, so we are dealing with the founding of the Shire.

I've never played an RPG by post though I played a extremely short-lived Champions game by email. How does play by post work differently than in person or by webcam?

Check out this thread, my games are public and others have posted links as well.

It is a slower and more considered sort of game. My games are considered very fast and it takes about a months worth of posts to make up a session. But it's also more literary and the ability to always go back provides both mechanical and narrative benefits.
