I am a GM looking for players and a gm that would like to play a game of fate in any sense. Honestly. I'm boerd of other games and want to play with people that just want to have a fun time. I dont care of the enviroment that we go for but i want to have fun.

There's a shortage of GMs for anything.  The Roll20 landscape looks like millions of kittens mewling for milk but not getting any!  I ran one bit of Fate Core for a few weeks, under someone else's game area, and set up a campaign area or two of my own that I didn't totally develop.  I will only announce it when I have a solid one-off adventure "in the can". To make sure you can manipulate the Roll20 environment correctly, you might want to go up to the Games menu and go through their Tutorial process.  It takes about an hour off and on, but it looks like an interactive "game" that will teach you all the Roll20 features.  After that, you get a "mortarboard" symbol in your profile!
Looks like you have a fair bit of Roll20 experience. I'm a GM and player in the meat world (for a couple decades), and would probably GM a game or two on Roll20, but want to experience it as a player first. That means I'm definitely interested if you're running a game, and doing so might increase the pool of GMs :) My schedule's a bit tight sometimes, though, so let me know when you want to run so I can tell if it will work for me. On a different note, if you want more resources for Fate, the [Fate community SRD](<a href="https://fate-srd.com/" rel="nofollow">https://fate-srd.com/</a>) includes the rules for Core and Accelerated, the two Toolkits, and several setting books, as well as links to other resources. Hopefully, that includes any info you might be looking for.

I can throw out two tips for Fate Core GMs:&nbsp; always throw out a sparing number of environmental or situational Aspects, usually written on Index Cards or noted on the Map Layer (for Roll20).&nbsp; There is the setting's Current Issue and Impending Issue, but you can make up others.&nbsp; Encourage players to Create a (new) Advantage (or exploit an existing Advantage), the roll-result chart is slightly different for each of these.&nbsp; It is an under-used Action. So, if a forest has Ground Full of Sticks , obviously the cave-man PCs can rub two of them together and Create an Advantage,&nbsp; Fire! &nbsp; Unless they fail to, or if they roll hideously they set their furs on fire which the opposition can Compel! Also, players should not talk about Invoking stuff until they see what their initial Fate Dice roll is.&nbsp; If the roll isn't good enough, then the PCs and the GM can spend Fate Points to bring in Aspects (good for a +2 or Re-roll). The Fate Core frame-work is loose.&nbsp; Coming out of my past, I see it as downright innumerate!&nbsp; But you can make it live.&nbsp; Keep your descriptions short but be dramatic.&nbsp; Offer more details about sights, sounds, smells only if characters investigate (the players ask the right questions).&nbsp; In Combat, look for ways to combine use of Aspects, Boosts and the Teamwork rule (+1 for every person helping who has at least 1 in the Skill, to a reasonable limit, but they share in the problems if it fails) to give the PCs a devastating wallop.&nbsp; The NPCs may return the favour.&nbsp; Always describe in story terms and you may end up with amazing combat and other situations.

So Daniel, are you looking to GM a game of Fate and are looking for players or to you want join a game that already has a GM as a player? Or both? If it’s the former, pitch an idea and schedule it. If the latter, there are several games listed in the 2018 One-Shots, Mini-Campaign and Longer Campaign listing. I agree with Pierre: GMs are in short supply on Roll20 and moreso for non-D&D games. Last year was the first time in a long while that I got to be a player myself as I usually end up GMing. So I welcome and encourage anyone who wants to learn how to GM. Go for it! /Matt
&nbsp;Those are some great tips, Pierre S. Thanks!&nbsp;
