D&D Meetup: taking turns (Weekly) 6-26

To RSVP for this meetup you have to agree to a system where we take turns running games for each other. This is a subgroup of the NYC Meetups where members agree to take turns DM'ing for each other. We keep track of who DM's and who plays and then vote on who we think should DM next for the group based on how many times they have come and played. Click this Link for more description. There are two groups one who meets monthly and one who meets weekly.

If you are new to DM'ing and still want to join you can easily run an adventure from the new Dungeon Delve book. It makes things very easy. The rest of us can choose whatever we want to run, either published or custom made, either one-shot or longer adventure.

I hear two excuses every time I ask people to DM. First one is from new people who are scared to do it or don't know how. That excuse is now invalid because of the existence of the new Dungeon Delve book which makes it so simple anyone who read the player's handbook can do it. The second excuse is that a lot of DM's are the main DM for their friends at home and the meetups are the only place they get to play. Well if everyone took that attitude then there would be no DM's at the meetups at all. If we take turns you'd get to play 6 times for every time you DM. You'd only have to DM once every 6 months which seems very fair, even if you are running something for people at home. If you're a player and don't like a DM, don't worry there will be a different DM to choose from next week.

When RSVP'ing please put a DM's name in your comment to hold a spot.

If you have time, make two characters of different roles so we can attempt to make balanced parties.

Games -as of 6/11- Please RSVP with a DMs name to hold a spot
