IRC P&P game

Well, as so many have never touched D&D, and a lot have just no way to play it, I'm looking to possibly see if we can run a game on the IRC. I was thinking possibly just a plain dungeon run, so first timers wont go insane. If enough are interested, we'll sort out more details.

There is a system inplace for online pnp gameing ..it is basicaly everything you need to run a game over the interenet, including editable maps, char sheets, white board ability, You could even do Voice chat, if all hoodked up to it. I forgot the name..I am sure someone here knows it. Actually a very cool program, too bad I lost it when I had my little ...accident with my harddrive a week or two back..god I cannot rememeber the name of that progaram..I hate getting old...

Cool. Sounds like pwnage. Ill google and see if I can find it or something like it. If i can find a Cross platform program, Well use that instead of the IRC.

EDIT: Is this what you mean? http://www.openrpg.com/

I'd be down for that. internet is the onlty time I can -touch- PnP.

Openrpg is too difficult to use. Use Fantasy Grounds. It's tailor made for D20.

Looks pwnage. Does it crossplatform to mac and linux?

I have no idea, check their homepage. We just, uh, bought it from a shady rapidshare upload so my friend Surgey could play a few rounds D&D 3.5 with me and fellows from the Codex. I was a gay kobold with 5 STR. The game developed into madness as Nicolai, the retarded genius barbarian, killed a kid dragon and, thinking its eyes were magical, ripped his own out and placed the dragon eyes into his sockets. The player quit when they didn't do anything magical.

Looks nice and easy to learn. it doesn't say anything about crossplatforming, so I don't see it being a problem. But you have to buy it.....I don't like buying things.

So, anything happenin with this?

i might just give it a shot

Thats it! Fantasy Grounds! That is the one I could not think of. And if you use a voice chat server, teamspeak or whatever, it is as close as you can get to an old fashioned pnp, exception being your players are from all over the globe. Hooray Jasede!!!!!

Um, yeah..I'd give this another go. Was loads of fun last time.

well, enough want to do it. No offical date set yet, but ill give you guys a weeks warning. *starts fiddling with program*

IT is a .exe file.

Meaning you require windows to use it.

P.S. I have a mac, I cannot run it. I have no idea if a linux can run a .exe file- but I would doubt it.

They may have another compatible download elsewhere- but I didnt see it. And would therefore imagine they never even took the time to remember people use other types of computers. >_>

I use a mac too, dont you have Boot camp?... Eh, Im sure I can find a nice cross platform if you dont.

Although upgrading from PPC to Intel costs a bit, its worth it. (Not to mention the new Macbook pro pwnz)

Uh, here's for anyone that doesn't want to buy it, and would rather copy it instead. comes with crack, so it figures out the CD key for you. http://www.mininova.org/tor/626366 Enjoy!

Tprime you scamp!

You have fallen into the darkness that is efu. Run, Run fast.

I'm in.

Update:

I, of course, do not endorse Tprime or his actions. :P But Im hoping to run it this coming weekend, if my mom gets out of the hospital before then. Otherwise Ill have to postpone, they don't tell me anything, so I need to be there personally to find out anything. :?
