Groups blog today!
Description
This is a group for the discussion of free-form--i.e. diceless, turnless role-playing games on-line. Though it is meant as a forum for people who run such games, those who play them may also feel free to subscribe and put in their two cents. The group will be very relaxed and lively, it is hoped, and will be a good resource for GMs to ask questions about improving their games.
Advertising is NOT allowed on this list.
You can visit www.pbem2.com for that, among other places. Thanks.

A dying genre?
Is it just me, or are PBEMs, sims, whatever-you'd-like-to-call-them a dying genre? On the one hand, maybe it's just me - I restarted WAR a month ago (by which
