View Full Version : Play by email?
What are people's experiences with play by email games? I'm asking because I'm thinking of taking part in one, mainly cause my irl gaming group will be inactive for quite a while.
Also, is communication between players more awkward in play by email? Or is it alright with features like gmail's group emailing?

Meh. It's slower PbP. Without the second edition initiative system, it's hell. I'd just use normal PbP.

I've never tried it, but I don't really see the advantage it has over PbP except privacy which you can get in some forums. My group uses mythweavers and you can make it completely private if you want. Email would be extremely slow and difficult to keep track of, with PbP if you forget something you just need to look a few pages back and your good.
