When

Weekends

• Saturday/Sunday (Sunday seems to be preferred)
• AM/PM (noonish start time seems to be preferred)

What

Themes to play

• Roll-everything - nothing is a flat 10 base - DCs for saves are rolled (that little snake might be DC 21 fort save instead of 11!), AC base, etc (Randy)
• Animals - everyone plays an enlightened animal with class levels (Mike)
• [Under]water - an oceanic if not underwater game (Mike)
• True20 - A d20 system with stripped-down base classes and every class ability is a feat/feat tree (Daryl)
• Gestalt - D&D variant where every character gains 2 classes per level
• Group Builds
  • All-the-same-class - everyone has to play different builds of the same class, such as everyone picks a different god for their cleric or a different school to specialize in for wizard, or different feat trees for a fighter
  • No-martial - no one can play a +1/level BAB class
  • No-spellcasters - no one can have any spells
• http://www.d20srd.org/indexes/variantAdventuring.htm
  • Defense Bonus/Armor as DR/Armor Damage Conversion
• Non-standard Races
• Squadrons of lower-levels

Other systems?

• Ars Magica - A d10-centric troupe-based system (players create a group as a group, not individual characters -- of varying degrees of power to control multiple ones and tell a story with more actors)
• Paranoia - humoorous, dark humorous, or just dark dystopian sci-fi
• Unisystem - a d10-centric rules-medium system with a lot of customizability
• Lundia - Playtesting Askewnotion's home made RPG system. A d6 system in the genre of pulp fantasy.
