Hey, all...just throwing something out there...I really would like to play in a play-by-post Legends of the Untamed West game. I’ve played through my copy of "Blood in the Dust" until its worn, and would like to try another adventure. I know this is a big thing to ask, but if someone would like to run a western, I’d love to play in it. If I get no offers, no biggie, as, like I said, I know it’s kind of a tall order to ask, but if anyone has something ready to go, or wouldn’t mind whipping something into shape, I’m your player. It doesn’t have to be anything large or grand, a quick mini-adventure, 50 posts or less, is fine. Of course, something longer is fine, too. So, if anyone is up to the task, let me know

darkscar, is there a character type you'd like to play, such as gunslinger, sheriff, bounty hunter, etc., or would you rather play a general cowpoke who has adventures? Do you prefer supernatural elements in a western or would you rather not see that type of thing at all?

if this takes shape and happens, i'd like to play too. i'm open to playing any character in a supernatural or non-supernatural world.

Hey, vlad, thanks for the response.
I'm okay with some supernatural elements in the game, but not too much. On a scale of 10 about a 3 maybe. Shootin' up vampires doesn't quite seem to fit this game for some reason. I was a fan of Deadlands back in the day, but for this game I wouldn't want to see a lot of that kind of thing, but a dash of it would be fine, I think.
As for character type...hmm...I like mission-based adventures over exploration, wandering, open-ended adventures if you know what I mean. So something with a definite purpose, maybe investigative, clue gathering. and of course, action. Lots of action. Maybe something like a Wild West, James West type of thing minus the steampunk gadgetry. ..
I think I've got it, how about a Pinkerton Agent on a case? I think that might scratch the itch. How does that sound?
And ewookie, if you want to play, I'm fine with it.

Give me about a week, give or take, and if I can generate something that closely resembles an interesting adventure, I'll let you know. If I can't, I'll let you know that, too.

Alright, vlad. Sounds good. Even if it doesn't come through, thanks for the effort.

vlad et al. i withdraw my request to play. i'm doubtful i could stay interested in a western adventure without zombies or aliens or something but i'll be watching to see if it's possible.

darkscar, I think I've got a good idea brewing. No rush, but you may want to go ahead and create two 35 point characters with 6 skill levels. In a couple of minutes I'll send you a PM with other info, like how we'll handle dice rolls, and some other matters. I'm still about a week away from beginning; I'll have to flesh out the plot more, but I think I can give you an entertaining game.

For some reason Invisible Castle isn't working for me. I registered, but they never sent me the follow up email with the link to confirm, and any subsequent attempts to login I'm not recognized (when I registered a 2nd time the same thing happened). When I attempted to "Contact Them" I kept getting "Service Error" messages after hitting Send. So...I don't know.

So...I don't know. i noticed that the confirmation email went to my spam folder on gmail when i registered. maybe yours went to the spam folder of your email too. if you do find it there and click it, after the registration is complete page displays, you are given a chance to login. when i tried, it displayed 'Page not found' but in upper, right corner it showed that i was actually logged in. from there, die rolling seems to work.

I was keeping an eye on my Spam folder after I registered, just in case it showed up there (truth is, I'm one of those people that glances at everything in the Spam folder before deleting the messages), so I guess I just had no luck at all with I.C. Thanks for the info, but I'll probably go with another dice roller.

i'd be interested in knowing what you use. i've seen some others but found I.C. to be the most tolerable to my picky tastes. of course, if it's something you're running on your own server or something, i would completely understand not wanting to let a link loose in the wild.
