Foundry Author Guild?

zovyazovya Member, Neverwinter Beta Users, Neverwinter Hero Users, Neverwinter Guardian Users, Neverwinter Knight of the Feywild Users Posts: 0 Arc User
edited June 2013 in The Foundry
Was hoping to find a Guild exclusively for Dungeon Masters. I toyed with the idea of creating one, but I don't have time to be a guild leader. I can crank out a website easily, it's what I do. But..

Has anyone thought of joining or creating a Foundry only guild, or are you already in a normal guild?

Edit: Dungeon Masters on the Dragon server is now a real thing. Contact me in game @zovya for invites.

    I was thinking along the lines of a fan-run Foundry dedicated website... Maybe some "Featured" quests separate from what Cryptic features, tips, reviews, etc.

    I would be willing to join a foundry author guild if one was made, but like you I have no desire to be a leader of one.

    I plan to start on the Dragon shard, if that makes any difference.
    There is a rumor floating around that I am working on a new foundry quest. It was started by me.

    I am creating Galstaff Adventures. I do plan on being in the foundry quite a bit, but i also game with my family. I usually leave running things to my wife. She is quite good at it.

    I was actually considering opening up my ventrilo server to the public, for newcomer questions. I'm not sure how popular that would be though.

    I think a Ventrilo server where peeps could come and ask questions and discuss the Foundry could become fairly popular.

    +1 to this idea and agree with Agentjaspor on this one.

    I could offer up my mumble server for this use. I don't use it much, and it's really only for when I play Chivalry:Medieval Warfare. So if you guys want to use it, let me know!

    I am currently making a foundry website. It will redirect people to twitter and forums for discussion though. Its turning really well but I want to make it public only when it is complete.

    It will be something good, but will rely heavily on large pictures.

    I have a proboards forum I have set up for off-site Foundry discussion and the like, just one general forum right now but I could add sub forums (see link below).
    -Agent of Satan, but my duties are largely ceremonial.

    Realm of the Demiurge Foundry Works

    Neverwinter isn't D&D, it is a MMO based on a game that uses D&D terms but isn't really D&D either. NW is fun (for that matter so is 4E), but it isn't D&D, and once you wrap your expectations around that you will be able to enjoy the game for what it offers and not worry about what it does not.

    I see that this got pretty far off topic. Are there any Foundry focused guilds out there?

    Do we have to have already published something to join? Is there a minimum star-count for review of something we've published that we have to meet as a criteria for joining? Will you be running a ts/vent/mumble server for the guild?

    Heck no. I just want people to know that the guild is about Dungeon Mastering. No requirements to join. I'm working on a site, that's it for now. I'll have to check on the voice chat stuff.
