I'm an old hanger-on who first got his start in '83. After years away from the game in my twenties and early thirties, I've been drawn back to gaming by the quality of Paizo's Pathfinder line. I'd really just written myself off as a gamer and was just buying products for inspiration for my writing, but Pathfinder has changed that and I find myself looking for some mature gamers in the Philipsburg/ central PA area.
Are there any players out there looking for a GM? Or, even a group just looking to pick up another player? Please drop me a line if either of these describes your current situation. Thanks for reading.
Wow! No go, eh? I knew there wouldn't be much of a response, but this is disheartening. C'mon, there have to be some players out here.
Still looking and not having much luck, but I wanted to bump this so if anyone does actually read it they'll know I'm still interested.
Hehe. Good story, Jaelithe. I'm sorry to say that I'm in the center of the state of PA. I appreciate the good wishes, though. The way things are going, I need all the good wishes and luck I can get. An infernal pact is starting to look like a reasonable suggestion at this point :D
Still out here looking and having no luck what-so-ever. Just wanted to bump this in case anyone might be browsing and see it.
Still looking :(
Hello fellow west central Pa guy! Not currently looking, but keep me updated with how your search turns out.
Edit. Im in Hollidaysburgh
Heya TWK! Thanks for the bump, at least. You frequent Gatehouse Games?
Hello Marc! Too far from Harrisburg to make it feasible, unfortunately. I'm closer to Altoona and State College. What's the gaming climate like down in your neck of the woods?
I stop in at Gatehouse about once every month/2 months to get fresh miniatures, but thats about it. For such a small area we are pretty lucky to have such a good games store.

Gatehouse isn't as good as Ye Olde Hobby Shop used to be, but it does have a nice selection of products.
I'm still looking for a group, either an established one or one we can put together. Please post here or drop me a note via PM if you're interested, folks.

I agree about the Ye Olde Hobby Shoppe. Especially when it used to be upstairs in the mall. When they opened their big warehouse-looking store, It was like they stopped caring about RPG's.
Darn it, I also misread it.
I'm in Pittsburgh, Pa.
Still looking, folks. Looks like I'd have had better luck if I asked for people to hand me free gold ingots.
gold ingots, here ya go... :)
Im in eastern PA. But don't give up. Try the nearby colleges?
Hehe. Thanks, Blope. I haven't tried the colleges, but will try posting a couple flyers; it can't hurt.
Just bumping this back to the top so it doesn't disappear into the shadowy depths of forum oblivion again.
Yeah, I'd check in at Penn State, Ironhead. There was a small gaming community there when I was a townie. Now I'm closer to the Jersey Phillipsburg...
Still looking. Talk about discouraging :(
Don't give up, when my group started getting smaller, I found 3 guys locally to join my weekly game through this board, and 2 of them joined us. I also found some others in the general area, but not quite close enough to make a weekly drive.
In the meantime, I recommend getting into a play-by-post site or game to get your gaming fix.
Thanks for the encouragement, blope. I've been painting miniatures, while I search, to help keep my interest up, but even that is starting to dim. I never expected it to be this difficult to find a group around here.
Still looking.
We game every Saturday in Clearfield. There are currently 6 regular players. Although we're not really recruiting, we might have room for 1 more. Send me a PM if you're still looking.
