Wanted to see if there was an interest in an idea I had with a friend for pbp game(s).
I am wanting to 'get my feet wet' on pbp GM'ing on a smaller scale before attempting any Adventure Paths. I was looking at possibility of doing one of the modules, but those are extremely short. And what I had in mind for recruitment seemed (to me) to be alot of work for a potentially short(ish) game.
My evolved idea is this: The group is a bunch of Pathfinder applicants (around level 5-6). Everyone has passed background checks, met qualifications, been recommended by an existing pathfinder, etc. You just need your field test. The 1st Module will be that test. Once completed, everyone becomes full fledged Pathfinders and each additional module ran is new assignments for your team.
If the group as a whole wants to keep doing another module, we do more. If the group decides they are done at some point we can stop. This leaves no real long term feelings of obligation like it would for an adventure path as people's schedules change, etc. It even allows itself for easy replacements between modules.
