Description

This is a list to discuss the creation of role playing game systems, as well as information that would be useful to the aspiring game creator. Many people want to create their own system. This is the place to talk about mechanics, genre, style, and any other aspect of role playing game creation for both PBEM and face-to-face gaming.

Note that if your first post to the list is nothing more than a reference to another group or off-topic, your post will be deleted and you will remain in moderated status.
