For best results in your quest to find a game, please include all this information in your post:

Method: do you just want Play by Post? Or are you willing to venture out into Real Time games?

    If you want Play by Post games, you'll want to put on which forums you have an account registered in (such as RPoL, Mythweavers, GiantITP, or Bay12) and which ones you prefer. If you have an absolute dislike of a forum, mention it! Another good thing to put in is your posting rate (how often you can make a post) and, if possible, a game you've already played in. This is so the GMs can see how well you write, and if your writing is good enough for the game. If you've never played in a Play by Post before, don't worry. Just write up a sample, and expect to be held to that standard every time you post. Don't put a novel if you don't plan on writing one every single time! Also, while it isn't as necessary as Real Time games, the times you are available to post would be a plus.
    If you want Real Time games, also mention the methods you prefer or dislike. Methods of Real Time games include IRC, MapTools, Skype, or Roll20. And, for the love of god, a realistic schedule of what times and days you would be available would be greatly appreciated. Let's be honest, you're not going to cut into your sleep before school/work EVERY week. Be honest! Remember, most real-time games run on a weekly basis. A good thing to note as well is your timezone (preferably in UTC standard). If you don't know, look it up!
    If you want both, put it ALL in!



Time: Yes, this bears repeating. Put the times you are available and your timezone! I've seen too many games fall off before the one month anniversary because someone decided to lie about their available times, or about how busy they were.
