Yawning Portal Signups

The Sunless Citadel : Level 1 The Forge of Fury : Level 3 The Hidden Shrine of Tamoachan : Level 5 White Plume Mountain : Level 8 Dead in Thay : Level 9 Against the Giants : Level 11 Tomb of Horrors : “Higher-level.” It’s tough! I am taking signups early for yawning portal! I am planning on running it in order from first level to tomb of horrors. This will be a big campaign as I am not sure how long these missions are going to take I would like to make my way through these as quickly as possible.  I was thinking about doing a twice a week game but am not sure who can actually make those times. I would like to make these sessions longer if possible so weekends would be good but I am open to any session mid week thats after 5pm est. Anyone up for a grand adventure?
yes, but are characters locked in the adventures or can we switch in between them?
I would like to run in the Level 1 please...
Mite be interested, but need detail on time and day. As for weekends I'm only available in the afternoon or Saturday night. 
I'm interested. It would depend on what day(s) though...
characters would be locked in the adventure as I have no idea how long these adventures will go.
What about a wednesday night and a saturday night? Would that work for people? I still need to figure out how to run this roll 20 campaign and familiarize myself with the campaign but im assuming i can do that pretty quickly I am going to do a spot drawing if we get more than 6 signups. That means I will roll a d100 for everyone and the highest numbers will get the spots. If not everyone will get in!
Saturday is Findle's guides and Wednesday I have classes till 6pm CST. I may not be able to attend.
Wednesday night for me and Shinobu the level one monk will particapate.

Is this something we want to consider purchasing for the group?

Mark S. said: Is this something we want to consider purchasing for the group? It would be the same as Stormking's. Who ever purchased it would be able to tranmog the content to any games they create, but no one else would have access until after its been transmog'd. You can not transmog to a game you did not create from the start.

Weds and Saturday would work for me but I would only be available after 6:30 eastern on Wednesday and anytime after 2 or 3 on saturday. 
This book wont come out until after findles guide is completed I know gunnar is headed out on deployment soon so I was gonna try and snag his spot
ok then I can make it.
Daniel S. said: This book wont come out until after findles guide is completed I know gunnar is headed out on deployment soon so I was gonna try and snag his spot I do have several other "Guides" in development, so i don't plan on being done for a few months. If you need the time slot, I can try for a different day of the week eventually.
no worries ill just make it a different time or run the game at the same time I know we need some times for new players to play this is not going to happen for a month. I just member u saying u were gonna take a break for a few months while u were on deployment.
yay more guides
I can make Wednesday nights, Saturday nights would be hard. Level one or level two char.
be a fresh character at level one and I would move my way through the adventures if possible. What time Saturday would work for you?
I would like to get a good party comp to as well so once players are selected ill have mark open up a new campaign and we can do some theory crafting.
You are aware that this is a book of 7 different games (mainly dungeon crawls). There is no common connection between the different games, unless you are going to do something like Gunner with Findle.
I do realize they do not connect normally but I will be leaving some bread crumbs to connect each story together either like findle or I have a couple other ideas as well.
So no wed game then? 
I want to work on a weekday so i can move it to tuesday if needed but most other days are taken atm. Right now I want to lockdown a time on Saturday or Sunday. I can also run a campaign over top of people since we all the separate games to work with. Mostly I am concerned about building a good group that can make a twice a week commitment. Worst comes to worst I can get rid of the weekday game but id really like to run this twice a week

I just noticed that Tales of the Yawning Portal is introducing each of the seven separate adventure as an Add-On. An Add-On is a new feature that will not be completed for another couple of weeks. The reason my module is no hold with the Roll20 Team is because they asked if I would like to wait to make it an Add-On.  I do not know everything about this new feature, but I do know that it bypasses the need to Transmogrify by allowing you to add the content to an existing campaign. Not sure if you have to be the owner of that campaign or not. I also discussed character sheets with the team and they assured me that the Add-Ons will work with any character sheet format on Roll20. If someone could do a bit more research on Add-Ons, that would be great as it might turn out being worth just purchasing it from the marketplace. This is the Roll20 documentation about it... Game Addons Recently added to Marketplace content are " Game Addons ". Unlike a Marketplace module, these are smaller content packages that are meant to enhance your existing games such as: custom card decks, maps, single encounter adventures and more. Once bought, these content packages are available via a dropdown menu in the Game Addons section of the Game Details Page. Select the one you wish to add and click on the blue Add to Game button beside the drop down menu. When a Game Addon is appended to the game, it will be added to a bulleted list underneath the "Addon in [Title of Current Game]" list. This list is shown underneath the addon drop down menu and the blue Add to Game button. Adding an Addon more than once will overwrite the previous version of that addon you currently have added to your game. You will lose any changes you may have made, but this will also assists a GM who made any edits by mistake and wish to revert back to the original copy of the Addon. [ edit ]Removing Addons To remove any Game Addon content you've added to a game, you will need to delete it manually from inside the launched game. If you ever delete a Game Addon unintentionally, remove the Addon from the Addon List on the Game Settings Page, then add it back in again from this Game Settings feature.
Have fun with the Weekend game guys.
I am probably able to play Sunday nights.
Playing 2 days a week is not something I could easily do unless I dropped out of the Monday or Thursday game. Pretty sure I want be dropping out of Marks game and Atton is one of my favorite characters to play.  Fitting in a 3rd I could do but a 3rd and 4th is pushing it, so move me to a maybe status. 
I am leaving this thread up until the release on the 24th so we have some time to decide on times. I am very flexable on times but am busy monday and thursday so im sure we can get some times together :) This is open for newbies 2 so I know you guys have a newbie group let them know everyones welcome. Prob by the middle of next week I will lock down the times and players so check this forum by the 22nd for more info
Maybe its a bit optimistic for 2 days but ill cross my fingers lol
I guess I could do 2 days a week Tue, and Sat. I will have to shuffle things with my family. Their might be one night here and there that I couldnt play. (rare)
im up for level 1!

So after the initial wave of inspiration I have decided to move this game to once a week and will run it on Saturdays at 3 pm. All signups are available and we are starting at Level 1. Let me know whos interested with this date and time. Game will start on 3/25/2017 and continue for a while. Once each adventure is done we will break for any downtime accumulated as well as switch out any characters you may want to play!
Saturday 3pm works. I'll wait to see what everyone else is playing before picking a character.
depends on the Findle's guide series for me as I would like to continue down that if at all possible.
I'm with Regan as I also play in Findle's Campaign on Saturdays as well and I like that campaign.
I will prob run parrallel to that campaign but if we dont get the signups ill change but I think we will have the players to do it but u will be missed :) I will also be leaving that campaign once mine starts.
you will be missed as well. Arlan and Jonathan conflict was fun actually lol. Sorry if it ever got heated Daniel. I get carried away in playing my characters sometimes.
Sorry, I spoke to soon without checking calendars. I will still be working on the 25th. So I want make that day. But the following weekend the 1st I can start playing at 3pm.
I want in please, I have a level 1 ranger I would like to play. Well he is a level one ranged fighter atm but going ranger.
No spots have been assigned yet I wont pick them until wednesday of next week giving people plenty of time to sign up :)
Was that my sign up? Or do I need to send you a tell?
ill look over this post once we get to wednesday
Last few days to signup people if u want to start off a level one campaign post here and we will get a great group together!
