I was looking at the online games as they are now, and its a good idea for sure but its not something I would personally do at the moment. The idea of taking a couple of days just to get everyone situated and the game can go on for even a week or more, its good definitely for tons of folk and the use BBCode is cool, but its not for me personally.

So I was in a long stream of PM's with someone and the idea of a Skype game came to mind, just simply point the cam at the table haha. This way the game runs at a normal pace, and in normal time. Also you can get a visual on the dice being rolled, NOT that I distrust the current honor system, that has nothing to do with me not wanting to play that way, but it just becomes more of a standard game. Plus you get live chat vs. waiting on PM's.

Long story short if anyone wants to play a skype game to test stuff out just PM me, and we can get stuff going. I am -8 Hours GMT (PST) and I am only a student and all my classes are online so pretty much anytime is good except grave yard hours. (Gotta sleep between dragon dice hours right?)

Just a heads up I am still learning all the nitty gritty technical rules so hopefully its not the worst games ever.

Skawilly, I would love to play over Skype, but to be perfectly honest, I'd rather play in person, given that you live here in Beaverton!

I TOTALLY agree, but 2 things. 1 I dont even wanna play online but this is the largest community to play with and I would say 95% of the people dont live in my area and 2: What is with the Canadian flag? Or in French if you prefer, "Qu'est-ce que le drapeau canadien?"

I can think of another way besides skype. For those that have the ps3 camera it could work great. They made eye of judgement for it so it can't be that bad.
