I’m looking for a couple of players to start a mini-campaign that would last perhaps 3-4 months of weekly sessions. Women and older (30+) players given preference, not for any perverse reasons on the woman part, my wife is one of my players and I’m in love with her but because in general I’ve found women and older players to be less likely to be square pegs and less competitive and a lot less inclined to say something like “This is boring when do I get roll dice.” They’re also less likely to come up with Dick Tuna* jokes where my kids can hear it.
I do have some caveats -
The sessions are at my house and I have three small children that will be around during part of any session. Not only do they like to observe gaming sessions their computers are in the same room that I game in. As a result there are certain ground rules on behavior and what I’d be looking for:
- Language and social behavior is an issue in general with me and in very specific when my children can hear and observe it. If you can’t keep it clean then you’re not a good fit for me.
- Must be able to play without arguing, cheating or lawyering up.
- Must be able to tolerate children in a civil manner.
- A relaxed casual player would be a much better fit than a hardcore.
- No mind altering substances tolerated.
- Must provide own transportation.
About the group/gamesstyle/times -
- Sessions are Saturdays from 5:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. and 2 to 4 times a month.
- Location is in the Tulsa / Broken Arrow area of Oklahoma.
- Existing participants (3-4) are older, 40+ years old.
- Held at a private residence with 3 small children on site.
- Game system is 4th Edition DnD (no knowledge of system necessary).
- Dinner (pizza) and basic refreshments (tea, water) provided.
- Good aligned and action party only, no chaotic psychopath rogues or lawful stupid paladins.
So if you’re in the general area, think you’d be a good fit, then contact me and we can schedule a trial run.

*Dick Tuna – Phrase coined by Wil Wheaton, Penny-Arcade and PVP-Online players during their podcasts. Funny but not appropriate for a 5 year old.

I’d love to, but unfortunately I live in Michigan! Have you ever thought about running a campaign online?

I have actually run online campaigns, even when the only tools were IRC clients as well as run them using Neverwinter Nights and if the physical gaming doesn’t pan out it’s certainly something on my backburner as an option.

Sure!
I’ll take the cot in your garage, and I’ll need an entry-level job somewhere in your neighborhood so I can stay afloat.
Watcha say?!
