2015 One-Shot Campaign - EVERYONE PLZ READ
« on: January 15, 2015, 12:02:08 PM »

OK, so Steve's campaign is wrapping up in February, so now is the time to start talking about this.

For the rest of 2015, it seems like people were positively in favor of a series of one-shot games that give everyone who is interested an opportunity to write and GM a game or two.  Therefore, we need to - ASAP - get the list of "who wants to GM", and get those people up into a schedule.

The way I'm seeing the rest of the year, the schedule more or less breaks down about like this:

March 7th
April 4th
May 2nd
June - OFF DUE TO ORIGINS
July 11th (timeshifted away from the 4th)
August 1st
September 5th
October 3rd
November 7th
December 5th

That's 9 dates.  If you're interested in GMing a 1-shot, please post here ASAP regarding when you'd like to run a game.  I'll also be throwing my hat into the ring for at least one game, but if there's empty slots, I don't mind running more than one.

Dan - I know you were looking at doing a scenario.  Did you want to be up first in March?

Finally, could everyone please use alternate methods of comms to let the people who've gotten out of the habit of checking these boards that this is a thing?  Let Travis, Bryan, Jon and Drew, know what's happening, for example.

Gen Con is July 30-August 2 this year.

Also, do we want to stay with the first Saturday of the month schedule?  Some have had issues with the 1st Sat, some have issues with the 2nd. Sat.  I am good with any.

I'd be looking at an April run date most likely.

I didn't know if it would impact attendance, hence the reason to mention.

I'm up for running a game.  I just need some time to figure out the mechanics for it, so maybe for may or july, if Dan's taking April.

Travis, if you're considering running the game that you and Drew have talked about before, then I would definitely prefer July as the May date is the weekend before finals for me.

Sorry about the slow response, just got off a cruise, heading to Miami airport. I'd like a date, but if they've all been claimed that's ok too.

I'd prefer to move off of first Saturday, if possible. Any other would be better.

I'm thinking once we get a list of "months" people'd like to GM, we'll go through and see what week works best for people inside a given month.  There's enough *stuff* coming up on the first weekends of the various months (Origins, GenCon, Easter) that moving off a strict "1st Saturday of the month" is almost going to have to happen.
