Gamers wanted for d20 wuxia game!

dave_o · Post by **dave_o** » Thu Jun 30, 2005 2:29 pm

Hola! I'm Dave, I recently moved back out here with my girlfriend and am looking for a few good gamers for my upcoming d20 wuxia game. I'll be using D&D 3.5e/Oriental Aventures rules, as well as several house rules of my own. I've DMed and played various pen-and-paper RPGs for about ten years now, so I can guarantee a good time.

I live in the El Cajon/La Mesa area, but commuting isn't a problem. So post here with questions, if you're interested, etc.!

Heya... If you're willing to travel to the North Park neighborhood, starting in Aug, I'd be happy to host (and play).

That'd be rad -- do you have a nice place to play? :D

certainly will... My GF and I just bought a 2 bedroom condo there and I get to turn one of the rooms into a game room/office...

Righteous. Lookin' to start before August, though -- though we can totally move the game once you join. ;-)

I'll make this complaint again: how come all the cool games in San Diego got started after I moved?

That's right! You heard me! All the games I was in when I lived in San Diego were shit!

Seriously, though, I love wuxia (it's rad), and like to pretend I run/ran a little on-again, off-again Wuxia HERO game myself. I'd be totally up for your game if I lived anywhere near you, which I don't.

Devlin: Please stay away from San Diego. All the games turn to shit when you're in town.

Or something.

Man! The board just up and stopped e-mailing me replies to this thread. I'll be using D&D 3.5e and Oriental Adventures. Uhm, just e-mail me at dave.ohoh@gmail.com with further questions so I can be SURE I get them.

And my cell is 619-672-0710!

Well, it's not a geographical issue. The games I've been in here in Orange County have been, for the most part, the SHITTIEST PIECE OF SHIT GAMES EVER.

So I guess I'll have to find some games to play in that don't have me in them. I would never be a member of a gaming group that would have me as a player.

I think Woody Allen was referencing Groucho Marx. Not sure if Groucho was referencing anyone.

Your last hero story was hilarious. It was even funnier that it happened to you. I could see people actually *bragging* about that game.

"And then *my* character showed up and killed them all! And they all woke up in their HQ/Rec Hall"

~~[quote="cczernia"]~~I think Woody Allen was referencing Groucho Marx. Not sure if Groucho was referencing anyone.[/quote] yeah, i know:

"The other important joke for me is one that's usually attributed to Groucho Marx but I think it appears originally in Freud's Wit and Its Relation to the Unconscious - and it goes like this. I'm paraphrasing. I would never want to belong to any club that would have someone like me for a member."

but i had heard it first in annie hall, and even though allen attributes marx, for me anyway, the verifiable source is still annie hall. [/threadjack]
