[LFPs][PbtA] Masks - Bi-weekly - Day and time TBD

Greetings! What Masks – A New Generation is a Powered by the Apocalypse hack where you play as young super heroes coming of age and finding out who you really are in life.  There’s a lot of people out there who want to tell you who to be, but that’s something you have to discover for yourself – and if you save the world along the way, well, that’s ok too. If you want the official pitch and to take a look at the playbooks, see the Additional Resources section at the bottom. Who Looking for 2-4 more players to join myself and another.  Previous experience with roleplaying games is not required. ALL SLOTS ARE FULL! When We will be having sessions bi-weekly (once every two weeks), most likely starting next week.  The group will decide on a day and time from the following options: The first result for "timezone converter" on Google, if you need it Once a day and time has been decided, we’ll stick with that going forward.  Any other days are, sadly, not negotiable, and the times listed would be the earliest possible starting time, though slightly later start times may be possible. For most games like this, I try to aim for somewhere around 3 hours per session, with about 10-15 sessions total. Where We’ll be using Roll20 for character sheets and rolls.  The games will be voice, and we’ll decide the communication method (Skype, Discord, Roll20, etc.) by group consensus. You're interested, and you want to know what to do next? Just reply with what time(s) from the list work for you and a quick overview on what experience you have with roleplaying games and Roll20.  Compatible schedule will be the main selection criteria, your experience will just help me gauge the level of preparation necessary :).  If you have additional questions please feel free to ask. Additional Resources From page 9 of the Masks core book, What is Masks?: Ever imagine what it’d be like to punch down walls? Throw lightning from your fingertips? Run faster than the human eye can see? Fly? Ever been told “ No ” by a parent, teacher, boss, someone above you, maybe even someone you looked up to? Ever wanted to tell them, “ I don’t care what you say ,” as you go do something completely awesome? Ever read stories about interesting, cool, complicated heroes, people uncertain of who they are, uncertain of what they should do, but ultimately striving to do the right thing in the face of impossible odds? And triumphing ? MASKS is where all those experiences connect. A game where you get to tell your own awesome superhero comic book stories about young people standing up to the world around them and paving their own way—with plenty of explosions and madness along the way. A game where you get to both guide the story and be surprised to find out where it’s going. Masks playbooks and resources from Magpie Games
Hi, my name's Chris and I'd love to join; I could do Wednesday or Sunday. I have a decent amount of exp with d&D 5e and dungeon world and have done a one shot with masks as well as a second session zero. I have actually been trying to learn how to GM the system because it has been hard trying to find a game of Masks that meets up consistently.  I would like to know how long the session are intended to be.
Hello Chris, thanks a lot for the reply! I realized I forgot to include information about session length late last night, so I appreciate the question.  Typically, I'd expect sessions to go about 3 hours, maybe a little longer to wrap up the session.  It's pretty easy to cover a lot of ground in a PbtA game in about 3 hours, and that has usually felt about right in terms of content, time commitment, and attention span.
Cool I'd love to join then if you'll have me. 
Sounds great, I've sent you over an invite.  I've also updated the original post to reflect that you're available on Wednesday and Sunday, taking Saturday off the table. I'd like to get 1-3 more players if possible, so we still have open slots!
Can I join?  I've wanted to play Masks for some time now.  I got the rulebook when it came out but couldn't get a group going.  I have a friend who may want to play also, should I refer him to this post? I can do Wednesdays.  Currently, I'm GMing a Blades in the Dark game on Sundays, hence I can't do Sunday.  Previously, I've played Rolemaster and Bureau 13.   Thank you for your consideration!
Hello Jeremy, we'd be happy to have you!  I've sent over an invite in PM.  If you're friend is interested, feel free to refer away. 
Hello there, when i saw that this was a Masks game I knew i had to "throw my hat in the ring" as they say. I have played one session of Masks before but it was short lived. But ever since then I have been itching to play another superhero themed game. I would very much like to join this game, if you will have me.
I'd love to join. PM me please.
Hey Caspian and Steve, thanks for your interest! Caspian, I sent over an invite link to the game just a bit ago.  Steve, I've got you down as a reserve player depending on whether or not Jeremy's friend wants in and is available on Wednesdays.  I'd feel bad about splitting up two friends that want to play, but if they're not interested then you're in.  I'll send you an invite Monday if I haven't heard anything from Jeremy by then. I wanted to keep the game at 5 players, so I think concludes the LFG post.  All slots are full!
