omorkaI probably ought to post this to the gaming filter, but it's really almost more internet or writing-related than it is gaming, in some ways.
A number of people on my friendslist are in various PBEM games. I find the idea intriguing, but I've never been in one. Partly that's a matter of not having sought one out aggressively enough, but it's mostly because the vast majority of the PBEMs I know of are Amber games, or sometimes a hybrid of Amber and something else.
And I'm a bad gamer/fantasy fan, because I've never read the Amber books, and the one sample I read once in the long ago and far away leads me to believe I have much more pressing things to read first. :-/
I guess I just feel a little bit left out, even though it's totally under my control. Meh. It's not as if I'd have a chance to do regular turns during the heavier parts of the school year anyway. (Sour grapes and all that.)
