2019 Online Region Boon?

[GospodinSneg]

Hey all,

I hear there's a neat boon for Online Region Society GMing.

I don't want to seem transparently enticed by the carrot, but boons are cool, and I'm willing to GM.

Is this a thing, and how do I get involved?

There IS a cool Online Region GM Boon! More details in the blog post here, and then you can check out the GM tab of the Online Support Program site here.

I've only got experience in the Virtual Table Top (VTT) side of online play, but there's also a healthy online play-by-post (PbP) ecosystem that posts on forums, as well! But, for the VTT side, the majority of games I've seen have used Roll20.net for the virtual table-top, Discord for voice communication, and warhorn / Discord channels for scheduling.

There's two main "online lodges" I'm aware of for Starfinder VTT: Cosmic Crittermander and Starfinder Nexus.
Cosmic Crittermander Discord link
Cosmic Crittermander Warhorn link
Starfinder Nexus Discord link
Starfinder Nexus Warhorn link

Beyond that, there's also this guidey guide that was written for Pathfinder online play, but the gist is the same:

Happy (online) rolling!

If you are on Discord, join us at Roll For Combat or Cosmic Crit. (I will follow up on a PC with links.)

I'm sure HMM will be by soon, but there is the Castamir and Flaxseed recruitment boards for Paizo.com play by post. There is also a lodge at Mythweavers.

There are also VTT games available online. Check out https://pfschat.com

I suspect he means the convention boon.

I actually think the Manifold Host faction is super nifty! Pretty excited to sit down this weekend and figure out either a VTT platform or PbP.
