Not enough GMT-friendly games - anybody out there?

So I noticed a hell of a lot of games being played at like, GMT-6, etc, etc. And it usually happens that this is around 1-2am or so - and I need to actually get up the next day :P So. I was wondering if there's any people out there who play Pathfinder, are at GMT(or can play at a GMT-friendly time) I'm available ~7pm-12am Weekdays (Except Wednesdays, usually) and free most weekends too.  Is there anybody who's want to play/DM ?
I could do with another game. I'm available most days 5-11pm (GMT)  except fridays and saturdays. I'm not a DM tho.
I plan on running a few more PAG one shots, over the next few weeks. These will be run around 12:00 noon CDT or GMT-6. This should give the UK and other European players a chance to get in a few games. You must create Legal PAG characters for these events. PAG is the Pathfinders Adventurer's Guild.

I wondered how long it would take Ajax to post in this thread, seems you spam everywhere. I dont know about Ronano but i prefer to find a more regular game in eurotime.
I do see that most of the game are in american times or so , i am currently sing to a game in those kind of times , i think it will probably be a weekend thing , i would like to find another game to have maibe in the week as well , and if posible in our time , i dont have much expirience though :)&nbsp; Now i think Ajax is doin good by promoting hes game and i dont understand why you write that hes spaming Jonas , if any what he is doin is creating games in good time for eropean players , anyways if you guys like to play something guys and dont mind an inexpirienced player i would be glad to join as well :) Edit: forgot to say that i am in +1 gtm i belive .
Lets bump this
Hi i'm a GMT player looking for a game, if you guys don't mind noobs too much? ( I am a very quick learner when it comes to games however)
Ajax - I'm already in PAG and have a character waiting on the roster :P I think what Jonas means is that Ajax has quite a strong forum presence :P also, it WOULD be nice to have a consistant weekly game, rather than one-off ones. That's cool. So we have a few willing people - but we'd still need a DM.....
I'd love to play some heroic fantasy again, it's been a real long time for me. So Pathfinder is right up my alley. While I own several Pathfinder rulebooks I have yet to play it myself, but since I've played plenty of D&amp;D 3.5 in the day I don't think I'll have a hard time adjusting.&nbsp; I'd prefer to play on a weekday evening since I usually have to GM on weekends. I live in the GMT+1 area by the way.
Okay - so now we have 6 people willing to play (including myself) but still no GM :S
GM is always the hardest to find. Try kidnapping random people and ask them if they can run the game for us
Have you guys looked into the Pathfinder Adventurers Guild?&nbsp; We are more than willing to setup and run Euro-friendly games and have lots of modules and things for those of you wanting to GM.&nbsp; Check it out and if you have any questions feel free to send me a PM.&nbsp; <a href="https://app.roll20.net/join/80329/tPWfkQ" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/join/80329/tPWfkQ</a>
Yeah, but if you set up a game for us it will be more of a one shot, right? Personally I'm more interested in joining an actual campaign, since I'm all for story and roleplay.
Hey, I'm interested in joining a GMT friendly group as well. I haven't had a lot of experience lately, but I played some MERP and a AD&amp;D campaign or two a couple years back. I've never played Pathfinder before though. So if you guys don't mind having a sort of newbie in the mix, I'd be happy to join.
why is it so hard to find a GM? I only recently started playing D and D and within a few weeks I started running only war ( warhammer 40k RPG) &nbsp; the problem with that was only war is almost brand new so ive been having issues running it at my university. Ive heard that there are some pretty crazy people on this...so even if i did want to run something I think I would be shut down because I just dont know enough about d and d. but I do like coming up with story lines maps ect&nbsp;
Well i supose there is plenty of people , that like me dont know much of the game , or that dont want the responsability to be a dm , or dont have the imagination for it , the reasons can be many but its a truth that there is much more players then Dm's :)
"Why is it so hard to find a DM" Sometimes it is just more fun to be a player. DMing long runs can be quite taxing on a single person (which is why when I do this with friends we rotate the role to keep things fresh but that is neither here nor there). You have to constantly elevate the challenge you put upon the players not only in a singular session but as the session numbers build they are going to expect fancier bells and whistles. You need to design fights, including terrain, monsters big and small, and of course LOOT! Set traps, and of course be ready for your entire design to be ignored because instead they wanted to go to the tavern for an evening bar fight. Of course with more experience in doing this it comes easier (one of the things I personally am working on as a DM).&nbsp; In general the player:DM ratio will forever be skewed no matter how many times the question is asked :3. Scour the web for other LFG sites (and of course try and pull the players here because hey, this tabletop rocks). But your best chance is either biting the belt and diving in to try it for yourself or keep eyes open like a hawk for DM's looking for players! Hell, try checking your local card shops and such and see if they do D&amp;D nights (or your game of preference of course) Anyhow, Sadly I am a CST (-6) guy so I can't really help you time wise but you are welcome to swim through the forums and find a link to my campaign and if you find yourself able to make it with an open seat by all means come on in, even if it is for only 1-2 hours of the session. Happy hunting and may Insert&nbsp;Deity/Idol of Preference bless you. =D

Also, as Ramses V said - would like a campaign more than a module! :P Yeah - seems to be way more players than DMs. I think maybe in a little while I could. I've been playing Pathfinder for ~4 months (1 time per week, usually - but a lot of weeks cancelled so far D:) and I don't feel I could do it :P Hopefully someone able-enough to DM will respond on here soon, and we can get a campaign started :D
What game system is planning to be used when a DM is found? so I can look up the rules.&nbsp; Edit-&nbsp;Never mind,&nbsp;seen it is in the original post.
We're still looking for a GM with GMT-friendly time available
I'm in talks with Taki about running a game for level one PAG characters. If it goes well I might be willing to get up early enough to DM an early game for UK players. 10 AM for me (6 PM for you) on saturday, which is a stretch for me. xP Ronano: The only way you can assure that there will be games to play is if you DM. The thing about the PAG is that it is one off adventures, so if you learn a small premade one, it isn't that hard to DM. My previous DMing experience is based on 1 main campaign I run, which is my first and that is it. You have to get your hands dirty if you want results. Since people aren't entitled to games, and most people are regretfully not wanting to DM (Even though DMing premades is easy), the only way to connect DMs to players is to be a DM yourself.
Jesse S. - That'd be cool, thank you for your dedication! - Yeah, I know it'd be faster if I just DMed, but I don't feel I'm ready just yet - also don't have anything set up at the moment.... :(
It's not a Pathfinder game, but I have an open slot in my regular weekly B/X D&amp;D game if anyone's interested. Actually were using the Basic Fantasy Role-Playing Game , but it's essentially B/X with some modern sensibilities. GMT-friendly, 8PM-10PM UK, every Sunday. More details at play-by-post.org .
I have GM-ing experience, as a matter of fact, it's all I've been doing the last couple of years. It's been a real long time since I've been a player. Unfortunately I'm running a semi-weekly M&amp;M campaign and I don't think I could manage running another game at the same time. Should my group break up for some reason I could run a Pathfinder game, but we shouldn't count on that happening any time soon. (Incidentally, if anyone here likes the superhero genre and wants to give M&amp;M a try, I'm still looking for one new player. Sorry for the shameless plug...)
Its good to know that could Dm eventually Ramses , i hope nothing happends to your group though , and hopefully we could get a Dm so you can take a brake also from it and be a player , time will tell though :)
I will be hosting a game on Thursday from 6PM-10PM GMT+0 need 4-6players.&nbsp; Game will be using pathfinder system. Characters will start at level 2. No third party material allowed. No evil characters.&nbsp; Your character will be members of a school of magic and combat so your ages will range from 14-17 (Depending on your race the age may differ slightly). Starting equipment will be provided. PM me if you’re interested and I will provide more details. You must have a Working Microphone antd Skype to apply. GAME FULL
Hi, just throwing my name out here as a fellow euro hungry for games. I'm pretty new to Pathfinder and don't really feel comfortable being a DM yet but I can see myself doing it down the road. I've DM'ed AD&amp;D before when I was younger (I've gotten back to tabletops after many years of&nbsp;absence).
Too bad i missed the window for Kevin's game. I guess the search for a GM goes on
If it wasn't for the fact that I am GMing for thee weekly campaigns already I'd offer to help get you started :) Seriously though, you have that many players and not a single person willing to GM even two or three times?
ill tell you guys what give me a week or two and i will try to get something on a large scale running will need to find some more DM though to help me out.

Asaram said: Seriously though, you have that many players and not a single person willing to GM even two or three times? I'm like Ronano in that i've only played a handful of sessions over the last 4-5 months. Several of the others have never played Pathfinder. The idea of trying to GM for the first time in an online game with total strangers is a bit daunting to say the least.
If any one want you can pm me or contact me on Skype and I can run a session or 2 to help people to grips with dming or just answer any questions you might have. Also I'm planning on creating a larger community so I am looking for more DM in gmt time zone. I will be putting up an official post today or tomorrow. This community will be focused on ppl in gmt time zones.&nbsp; Skype name: urbainknight&nbsp; I'm free normaly after 5pm gmt+0 on most days&nbsp;
alright i got the PEG page officaly open <a href="https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/94495/peg-pathfinder-europe-group/#post-94495" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/94495/peg-pathfinder-europe-group/#post-94495</a>
Cool. You should mention that the group and that campaign are different things (Aren't they? 0.0) We should set it up like PAG have. With Google Docs rosters and stuff!
its going to be something like that. im gonna use the group im playing with to fine tune some variant rules that's why i not officially launching it
Still hoping for a nice regular campaign
<a href="https://app.roll20.net/lfg/listing/3241/gunrunners-daily" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/lfg/listing/3241/gunrunners-daily</a> Regular in the sense that its daily. Missions are completed each day and rewards given out. the groups change the missions change but the overarching plot and character progression remains. We have a GMT player. Two GMT+12's and a few other Regular players.
Daily? Oh my. How many GMs do you have?
I think that most people will have trouble&nbsp;making it to a game that starts at 6 o' clock in the morning on a weekday...
Yeah, that'd be a pretty serious issue for most of us :)
Minor bump for the people of GMT!
Ok guys PEG up and running look here for game link&nbsp; <a href="https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/105921/peg-pathfinder-europe-group-beta-is-now-open#post-106558" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/105921/peg-pathfinder-europe-group-beta-is-now-open#post-106558</a>
Yay! :D
My D&amp;D4e game, Company of the Raven:&nbsp; <a href="http://bit.ly/raven-lfg-roll20" rel="nofollow">http://bit.ly/raven-lfg-roll20</a> I'm inclined towards 5 pm Eastern for two-hour games, so that would be 10 pm - 12 am your time.
