About the adventure

**DISCLAIMER** All of these groups may NOT be facilitated or joined by me every week. Instead, these meeting times are opportunities for the community to participate in structured and open discussions about all things game. A recurring, rotating schedule of discord get-togethers with game designers and worldbuilders for a come--as-you-are-when-you-can mastermind group(s) that do everything from playtesting to workshops. What will be in focus: - Game with purpose - Mechanics and Rules - Campaigns & Homebrews - Promotion & Outreach - Frameworks & Systems - Social Practice & Support - Resource Sharing - Constructive Feedback - And the like Sessions will be hosted at regular, rotating days and times to adapt to different schedules. The server will be active in between sessions with places to promote your games. HOW IT WILL WORK * Session will be held in the discord voice chat - video is not required * Any participant can begin the meeting by reviewing the agenda * After the opening segments are done, there is about an hour of structured discussion about a reference or topic * Then there is about an hour of free chat about issues confronting the group members * The meeting will officially wrap after about two hours
