Most of my DFRPG games have been PbPs.  I've a few live games while I was learning the game, way, way back in 2010 or something.

A bunch of the games were high refresh but I had at least one 'feet in the water' game and it was a lot of fun.  I played a scottish hunter who got pulled into the Nevernever when he fell asleep in a fairy circle or something (I think...it was a long time ago).

Like many PbPs I've played, they tend to stall out.

I'm currently one of the ones playing in Enduring the Apocalypse.  What would you like to know?

We just made characters last night.  It's a 2 person game...1 is a Native American Tempest wizard, the other is a clued-in son of a Mafia Don.  Looking forward to it!

How quickly do you feel the game moves you through experience levels? My preference is for lower level play and to remain there a lot longer than most. I know that's up to the GM but I'm just curious what your experiences have been? I like the Scottish hunter concept. I could see that being fun to play. Yeah, pbp games do seem to fizzle out quickly.

I find that lots of groups like to move to chest deep pretty quickly with the goal of going submerged.  After that, it really depends.

Feet in the Water is a great place to learn the game. It's also a good place for gritty games that don't have as much 'High Fantasy'.

I've never played in a game that went from Feet in the Water to Super high refresh.  Usually, if you're playing with 15 refresh, IME, the game usually starts there.
