Learning to play RPGs / Where to Find Players

<< < (5/7) > >>

Cripple X:
Dropped a PM to you folks who expressed interest, so we don't crowd up this thread.

Rock Me Asmodeus:
I'm interested, too.  I'm normally a play-by-post junkie, but I've been letting my boards slide a bit lately obsessing over my shiny new DFRPG pdfs.  XD

I've none traditional RPGs before, (Star Wars, D&D, OWoD, etc) but this Fate stuff seems really alien to me.  I can't wait to try it out.  Anyone here have any experience with Spirit of the Century or FATE?

Aine:
Okay.  I ordered the pre-order.  Have no idea what to do next...

1. Await/Claim your pdf (depending on who you pre-ordered from you either recieved a download link for it or it will be mailed to you)
2. Read the PDF
3. Tell everyone how cool it is
4. Find other people interested in playing by:-
* Telling all your friends and Family how cool it is. If it helps show them the pdf. Persuade them they want to play
* Going online. Try sites like http://nearbygamers.com/, http://forum.rpg.net/ and of course this very forum to find people who would like to play. If you are in the UK http://www.ukroleplayers.com/ is a great resource. I'm sure other countries have similar sites
* Check out noticeboards in local gaming shops. Check to see if there are any existing groups which sound like they might be a good way to meet gamers interested in the Dresden files. If not place notices of your own and tell people you are looking to start a Dresden Files Game.   
5. Once you've found people arrange a date to start playing.
6. The rest is detailed in the game. Have fun.

Thank you!  After reading the pdf, it definitely seems like something that is easier to learn if you have a group of people around you who've, you know, played an RPG before. :D

Next stop: local gaming shop.
