Howdy, I'm not a born gamer like some of my friends, but I was always a great strategist. I played Chess with my Uncle until he wouldn't play me anymore because I always beat him, then with my dad, until I could beat him consistently, I was 7. Didn't get to play again until High School because there was no one to play. I was almost done with high school before learning about MtG, learned about B-Tech in College and was almost out of the Army before learning about the WoD. Post Army, I found a vibrant VtM LARP game in Chicago and have been playing a bevy of different games ever since. CWoD, nWoD, Battletech, BESM, DnD, Epic, Exalted, Gurps, HEX, Homebrew, MtG, Palladium, Pathfinder, Scion, Serenity, Star Wars. Plus spent my time in various MMO's: Elder Scrolls, EQ, EQ2, Mechwarrior, Planetside, SWToR, WoW. My favorites are still Battletech, VtM and Pathfinder, but love Politics over Adventure and Adventure over Hack and Slash. I've done some games before where writing was key, but there was no rule structure so people could just post "I WIN!" and there was nothing to stop that from happening. I like having an active overseer to my shenanigans or else there's not really any reason to play .

I'm starting to get a feel for this. Definitely this is a different format than I'm used to with all the links. I see descriptions about what to do listed, but it doesn't make sense until you see it in action.
I found this place through the GITP site and came specifically to check out the "Play as me" game.
