I've played on probably five or six PbP tables at this point, and Paul runs his games with impressive professionalism. You can tell he has a ton of experience because he has a well-reasoned big picture view of how the rules fit together, so when he makes a judgment call it's consistent and fair. He keeps his games active, invites constructive criticism and doesn't take it personally, and has his eye on the details that make a world and the npc's feel real.

Have played with this Storyteller for enough sessions to get a feel, and I'm super impressed on every level. There is almost no wasted time at our table, sessions are lean but there's a tremendous amount accomplished. I don't mean that we're railroaded or not allowed to have fun with things, I mean that we're artfully kept from spinning our wheels in choice paralysis or overplanning, so we accomplish more in a single two hour session than some other tables I've been on accomplish in multiple longer sessions. It's clear that a tremendous amount of thought goes into their game world, both in terms of lore and in terms of table rules. Great scene-setting, memorable characters, good hooks. If you aren't a fit for the table, you'll both find it out quickly and go your separate ways without hard feelings, like adults. 10/10.

Great GM/Storyteller. I am in a V:TM PbP with them and comparing them to other PbP GMs I have had is like night and day. They are extremely active, extremely collaborative, extremely *interested*. The experience on the player end has been fantastic. I would happily pay twice their going rate (or rather, pay them weekly rather than biweekly), it's currently just criminally low for how great a game they run.

Have been in one of their campaigns for months and greatly enjoy it. Good sense of humor, and good characterizations. Often creates very challenging encounters but ensures that failure (and even death) is just a fork in the road.

A fun and friendly DM with a lot of enthusiasm and a welcoming vibe. Was able to make even the skill checks a fun and creative time. Definitely willing to sign up for more adventures with them.
