I can bring out my copy on May 9 and we can run two games if there is enough interest.

Sign me up for Earth please!

: tlh878  May 01, 2023, 10:03I can bring out my copy on May 9 and we can run two games if there is enough interest.

I would say put up the second game.  There will be more people wanting to play.  We can even balance the two games player-wise if need be.

Please add me to Earth if Tamara is also bringing a copy. thanks.

Please put me and Bryan in for Earth. Sara will likely play the "learn to play" games again, depending on what is on offer. And if there is high demand, one of us can sit out as needed.

Apparently "Earth Day" is a couple weeks later than usual....  :)

The LTP games will be Crystallized and we'll play Downforce again.

I'm not sure why but I appear to be listed as Carmen K instead of Carmen O for Earth. I'll answer to Carmen O, Carmen P O (but not POed), or even C3PO. ;)

GAME: Dungeons & Dragons - D&D Beyond character build tutorial & pre campaign setup.
TEACHER: Mac (Superfan036)
START TIME: 18:30
DURATION: 1.5-2 hours
# OF PLAYERS: 4-8 (more is okay though)
URL: https://www.dndbeyond.com/how-to-play-dnd
Event information: I am going to begin a campaign with returning players. We will play 1 or 2 times a month or as we are able. I will still be hosting learn to play D&D events in between this campaign.

The best part of D&D is choosing your character & leveling up. Making choices that you want for your character. We will be building your 1st level character from scratch on the D&D beyond app so bring a tablet or your smart phone. I will be providing a link to begin your character build so there's no need to have it made in advance. If you have any questions message me directly. See you there.

For anyone already signed up for a game on Tuesday that may be interested in the D&D campaign, I can stick around or you can join when you are done your game. If we have a lot of interest that is fine, people will miss nights so it will be good if we have extra people that are interested. Let us know if you are interested & will be joining late. Thanks.

Oh, I have been waiting to hear more about D&D - please unsign me from Earth (sorry) and add me to Mac's D&D campaign. Hopefully I will be able to try Earth another time. Thanks so much.

All are welcome for this introduction to D&D Beyond. We are basically looking to roll up first level characters & lay the groundwork for the campaign. It may be best for any inexperienced folks to join one of the learn to play sessions before getting into a campaign. I will be running another of those in the next 2 weeks after May 9th. Depending on how much interest there is for this campaign they may be able to hop in at a later point. May 9th I am bringing my books for folks to go through & just get set up but absolutely anyone can come for that even if they have no intention of joining the campaign or maybe just don't have time. It's open to all.

Can you add Becky & Mikael for D&D. Thanks.

I'll join the game of Earth!

Thanks!

: Marshall  May 04, 2023, 21:52I will join Earth since a spot opened.

I guess my post was overlooked?

Can you add Kelvin and Kenneth to the d&d.

I am unable to attend tonight. This opens a spot in Tamara's game of Earth.

Thanks

Thanks

I haven't talked with her about it, but I can see if Sara might like to try Earth. But she's on the young side of the suggested age range for it, and she might prefer the shorter learn to play games, so if someone else is keen on the Earth spot, no worries.

If that last Earth spot is still available, I'd love to join!  If not, I will bring spare games or join someone's impromptu table, no worries.

Sara's good with Crystallized, so you're welcome to that Earth spot. :)
