Hey so does anyone here play #AmberDiceless? Never had any luck asking on twitter but people here skew older

Boosts would be nice. @Njord and I have been looking for a group to play with for many years now, to no avail

EDIT: Looks like there's enough people on here that would be interested in a game, so if you want to run one please let me know

@LeviKornelsen I help run a boutique gaming convention focusing on diceless and Indy RPGs in Metro Detroit, Ambercon US. I play Amber, Everyway, and just about anything else that someone makes interesting and not rules heavy. I really enjoy games where questions are explored but not necessarily answered.

I haven't been posting much here about role playing because I'm too busy gardening. But maybe someday.

#AmberDiceless You play a god. You can go anywhere, do anything in the whole multiverse. Almost. Because the rest of your F*ing family are gods too, and they just won't stop interfering. *Character generation* sets you at each other's throats, and you'll never look back. (Seriously - the absolute value of your attributes don't matter. All that matters is your rank amongst the rest of the family. The attribute auction process set storylines in motion that lasted us YEARS.)

Okay. that influenced me!

- VERY formative for me in learning to GM
- opened up more genres for me
- how I discovered the joy of players defining things
- got me more into collaborative scenario creation
- my introduction to GMless games
- opened up more effective ideas for prompt-based improv for me
(in general) - got me thinking in terms of the story driving the rolls instead of vice/versa

@laidbackdm As always, this is a very tough thing to answer. If I absolutely had to choose only one, I guess I'd pick #AmberDiceless as it.
It shook my ideas of what an RPG could be and how to approach design, stories, and GM/player balance.
The advice by Wujcik was helpful in places and horrifying in others, but it opened up new ways of looking at games for me; then I discovered the Amber Diceless community and soaked in their energy and brilliance, changing how I run and play forever.
