What's up fellow gamers. This is an interest check to see if there are any people on these boards in a situation similar to mine. I'm a long time DM, been DMing since 2007, and even longer gamer. I was introduced to D&D via the red box set way back in '87, and have been playing the game in one version or another ever since. Just started DMing 5th edition rules at the tail end of last year, so tons of room to grow there. My job, a secure one (had it for three years now), currently provides me a LOT of "open" time during the workday. The kind where I can easily string together two to three hours of downtime to pursue diversions. I'd like to try and get a game going on the Discord application. I've used it to stay in communication with the members of my tabletop group, and found it to be a rather handy way to play D&D via text.
Right now I just want to see if there are even any players that could make a go of playing via Discord during the Central Time workday hours. I work 8:00-4:30 M, W, and F, and 8:00-12:00 Tues. Thurs.
If you could possibly play via Discord during the work week, and want to give it a go. Let me know.
One note/caveat. I'd really like to run things in my homebrew setting. It's basically cookie-cutter fantasy with all the usual tropes, but it does put a few restrictions on playable races. I also only own the core books and Xanathar's Guide, so I'd further restrict class options to to those books. The setting isn't a deal breaker though, it's just easier for me to DM with that setting because I've created it, and add things as necessary as I go.
Hoping to get some interested players. So pop in here and give a shout-out, and or PM me to let me know you'd be interested.
Hello, I am interested in joining. Regarding the times. What time zone are you referencing? I am in central time zone and am in school so later in the day works great. Late Fridays are best case scenario however I may be able to make exceptions

Like I mentioned in the first post. U.S. Central Time (so Midwest area). The times I'll be available to play are 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, as well as 8:00 AM to Noon on Tuesday and Thursday.
If the afternoon hours, like 2:00-4:30 worked for you on M, W, F, that would certainly work with my schedule. :)

Ah, that will be an issue, I am in school so typically I don't get home until around 4. Sorry but I don't believe I will be able to join

Apologies!!! Completely forgot that we're currently observing Daylight Saving Time. Which means until we set the clocks back in November I'm actually -5:00 GMT, not -6:00. Sorry for the misinformation in the title.
Just wanted to clarify, as it appears I wasn't as clear as I thought I was. I'm looking to play via Discord while I'm at work. Those hours in the OP, the hours I'm at work, are actually the hours I want to play. At work I sit behind an internet connected computer with only occasional, actual, work to do. So, I didn't post those hours because those are the hours I can't game. I posted them because those are the hours I WANT to game. :) Let me know if you have questions.
I've had a few interested parties PM me, and I've asked them to pop in here and say Hi. We might be able to give this a go yet, but we'll need to discuss some of the particulars of character creation as well as how to best manage working with everyone's schedules.
Therefore I need to let everyone know that my campaign setting removes Drow, Dragonborn, and Tiefling as playable races. If you have downtime and want to familiarize yourself with the setting, you can do so here, at my Google site. If everyone that expressed interest wants to list a few of their ideas for characters they'd like to play, we could jump start the conversation from there.
Thanks! Looks like we might be able to give this a go! :)
I'm interested my schedule is a shitty rotating shift but I can make most times and days. I got 3 characters so far a druid, ranger, and a fighter but I have no making another to fill in gaps
Hello! I'm interested in playing and have a half-elf wizard I can use, though I have a couple more characters available if Genasi are available for pcs (it's fine if not, plus I'm willing to make more characters). I'm done with classes and should be available during the allotted hours.
I should have plenty of time to play. I've been feeling like playing a Goliath Monk, and looking at the classes everyone else is bringing to the table, perhaps a stealth based one to fill that niche? I'll be parsing through your lore, there's surprising amount to get through if you account the world only having 150 years of recorded history.
Okay, clearly, thankfully, there is enough interest to move past interest check and into recruitment. At this point there are already more people interested than I am willing to take on for this game, so we're going to have to have an application process first, so I can narrow things down accordingly.
Before moving on, I need to be very clear, because it appears as though some people still aren't clear. I am looking to play DURING the work week, DURING the work day. NOT afterwards.
I'm going to be very specific here so as to squash any confusion moving forward. The following are the ONLY days and times that I will be able to play this game via Discord.
All times are Central/Daylight Saving Time (-5:00 GMT)
Monday: 10:00 AM to 4:30 PM
Tuesday: 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM
Wednesday: 10:00 AM to 4:30 PM
Thursday: 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM
Friday: 9:00 AM to 4:30 PM
Okay, with that out of the way. I'd like to move the discussion for those that are still interested to a Discord server. This server will be explicitly for the purposes of character creation discussions, and getting a gauge for players availability to coordinate schedules. :) When the game actually starts, I'll create a new server for those that have been selected to play. If anyone has any questions feel free to ask either here, via PM, or on the Discord server. I've already put a lengthy bit of text up in the general channel with information regarding character creation.
I'm posting again because we lost a couple players and need to fill in the gap(s). So... This play-by-discord game is currently looking for another player or two. Things you need to know:
Game: D&D 5e Group type: Online Experience: No Prerequisite, we'll train the right candidate. :) Location/Timezone: (Central Standard Time, until November 4th, then my time zone switches to Daylight Savings Time) Schedule: We currently play every Wednesday from about 2:00 PM CST (again this will switch to DST on Nov. 4th) to about 4:30 PM. We have, on rare occasions been able to fit in another hour or two here or there during the week, but every time it is between the hours of 10:00 AM and 4:30 PM CST. Roles sought: As I said, looking for at least one more player. We just lost the party cleric, so someone with healing help would fit in nicely, but the role of the character is entirely open. Game style: We're heavy narrative, but combat is an important part of how the narrative is unfolding. I'd say, at this point, we've been about 50% combat and 50% character interactions.
You can post here or just PM me if you're interested or have any more questions.
I'd be very interested in playing! I'm fairly new, played a few campaigns, but Tuesday/Wednesday evenings/afternoons work perfectly for me! However I'm able to change my schedule around to whatever works best.
Hi, I'm interested in joining if you are still looking for players. I'm a new player, though I've done D&D style roleplay on Discord before. Never "traditional" D&D before though. However I am trying my best to read up and understand the rules and such!
Thank you for taking the time to read this! I hope you find the people you need!!
Hey, there! I would be interested in possibly joining as a player if you're still hunting for a few. I've been playing for a little while now, and would love to get involved in your campaign. I have a few ideas for characters, and would love to run some ideas by you if you'd be interested in talking with me on here or on discord, which you can message me at JP™#5005.

I like this idea, also in central time zone, my days are fairly open, I could work around most things though.
