The Forum for Long Running Games with set player rosters. Also a good place for Chess games or Mafia.
Based on a conversation from this thread: I actually have a few ideas of my own... not that I am likely to mod a game before December, but I was wondering... should we have a roster or something? We don't want too many Mafia games running in...
I've come up with an idea for an IF - that's interactive fiction - text based game/novel thing, and I'm looking for people to help with a test-of-concept game. This is a crude prototype, with awful writing and untested concepts, and it's probably...

Chaos has engulfed the entire Greek world! Cassander, a general under Alexander the Great, has executed his captives, the only son of Alexander and the boy's mother, Alexander's wife Roxana. While this low and cowardly bid for power is denounced...
Welcome back to Necessary Evil! When we last saw our heroes, they had narrowly escaped from the forces of the V'Sori, swiping Mindjack out from under the K'Tharen's vile proboscises. After two days at liberty, each hero's resistance CommLink...
All right, gentlemen. Everyone's confirmed, countries are assigned, and I got tired of messing around with photoshop, and just downloaded a mapper which, while not very pretty, at least is very clear, and gives useful abbreviations so hopefully no...
Welcome to Alphatown, a sleepy village in nowhere land, where the sun shines, crops grow, sheep roam unmolested and life was peaceful and happy. Until now, as a group of Werewolves have moved in to the area hiding themselves amongst honest folk...

First move: White pawn, C2 to C4. I make no claims to being a good, let alone a great, chess player.
Rather than have to go back through the setup thread when you need to find out more about one of your fellow USS Yorktown player characters, I thought it might be helpful to have all of the Starfleet Personnel Files collected here. I've included,...
Perhaps instead of going with an existing system, we could decide on a genre and setting, then come up with simple character sheets and rules so that people who don't have experience with roleplaying games already would have a low barrier to entry....
I'm hosting a Three Clan Mafia mini game over at idlemafia.com. It's a little different than regular mafia: there is no death reveal, there are three clans with equal amounts of players, and everyone is scum! It's going to be a smaller, faster 12...

A thick fog has settled on Pleasanton overnight, masking all lights in the little town. In the deep gloom before Daybreak, one figure creeps along the streets. He thinks he is unseen, but there is intelligence in the shadows. One of the shadows...
