Which one are you stamets.

I've never had success with randoms because all it takes is one person to really dampen the game, and the odds of that happening are just too high. Which is a shame because I've ran into good players who just can't find a group to click with.

I’m 2 today.

I've formed some of my best, and strongest friendships through online ttrpg play starting as strangers. But not quite *randoms*, which is an important distinction. I collected hundreds of applications to play, and went through every single one to hand select ones that had good vibes. I even video interviewed them. Still playing almost ten years later with a few of those, and the ones who don't still play with me still had multi year campaigns with.

#3 is pretty applicable to me today. Sometimes you gimp the furry and sometimes the furry gimps you...

If I had to choose I think I'd be top right pancake How about yall? If you had to choose one who'd you be?

I've always wanted to try playing DND, but I don't know anybody where I live since I moved five years ago, and I'm not an outgoing type of individual.

Check with your library.

Someone hasn't returned the gaming group my library has for loans.

This seems nuts on paper but bet it finds a lot of people frustrated by the same things. Was it arduous? Glad it worked out for you. Good advice.

Bottom right.

Stamets, if you’re legit putting together an online D&D group I’d be super interested. I’ve never played but I vow to not be _that guy_ in the group and to try my hardest.

Nice Now we need 2 more party members🧨 and then we can head into the dungeon️️

I don't know, doesn't seem that nuts to me. I'm a GM and I reckon if I'm going to run games for *years* for people for free, I had better like them and know a little bit about them. I wouldn't say it was a fun task, but I wouldn't go so far as arduous. I kinda like reading everyone's answers and, if I'm being quite frank, I'm not above admitting that so many people trying to get into a game I run is a nice feeling.

That kid is ready to join the Legion.

The DM having to deal with all of them

 I have no problem with new players provided you're willing to learn, listen and be *cooperative.* It's easy to fall into a bit of main character syndrome but as long as you're willing to receive feedback then you are genuinely already going to be better than like... 60%, minimum, of other online players. I've been fleshing out a world, nations, factions, gods, and various potential plotlines for the past year or so. Should be done in the next 1-4 weeks, likely sooner than later. If you're actually interested (or if anyone is), just shoot me a message. The only thing that I actively require from my players is a DnD Beyond account, a Discord account, a sense of humor, a spark of imagination and a goal to both play your story and uplift others in theirs.

I’ll take top left, but I want to be a Tortle.

If I pick bottom left, am I the guy above or below the table?

On top of that board game shops tend to do game nights, and probably have a system for putting together groups.
