Got it, can I get a brief 1-2 sentences about it, just so I have the creators own words?

Its up now! Also is there any interest in making in making a section for just basic suggestions for forum games? This would just be for forums who have a good idea of a forum game but don't wish to host it themselves.

Tip: When it comes to moderating player behavior and posts, a Host must have an iron fist that is lined with velvet.
Spoiler:You need to be firm and serious when it comes to enforcing rules, but you need to give some breathing room and understanding.

Thats a solid tip, I'll add it when I get home.
On another note I would like to thank the mod Arckas for unlocking this thread. I want everyone to make sure they remain civil in all discussions here, so this does not turn into the Forum Game Hub.

I made a new game!
It has a lot of rules, but it's a lot of fun once you get into it.

Added! Also I will hopefully be adding a forum game idea section as the thread that used to house them has since been close.

So.... I'm thinking of doing Dungeons and Dragons.
Problem is I have never played it and I know i'm going to fuck up. Anyone willing to mentor me or something? Maybe host and have me as a co-host so I can learn?

Well, you better play it first then :\
How do you expect to host one if you're unfamiliar with it?
Try asking someone from the D&D thread, i.e. Jammy.
