Or, like me, you can post to both :)

I'm debating what to run. Since my last supers game didn't work out, maybe it's time to ditch supers for awhile

Urbwar, I know you've run for us enough times to know the score, but for anybody else who is thinking about running at Recess for the first time:

Sometimes games don't get enough players to run. What games get players is highly variable -- we've had situations where tons of players were asking for a particular type of game one Recess, only to completely ignore it when it was available at the next Recess. Oftentimes an awesome game doesn't get players simply because there were too many other awesome games happening at the same time.

The best thing to do is keep submitting games -- you'll get to run more often than not, and build a rep for running great games!

Also, make that game description (the part of the submission form where you describe the game) a good one that catches people's attention! This is what we use to advertise your game!

So many good games get run at Recess, sometimes it's hard to choose what to play.

I've run many successful games for Recess. The last 2 day Recess, I had full games for both Villains & Vigilante games I ran. It's just like making a die roll during a game; sometimes you don't succeed.

What an awesome way to ring in the new year (possibly the last one too if you believe the Mayans).

I will definitely be there Saturday. Hoping to run two sessions of my Muppets RPG, one Sesame Street and one The Muppet Show. Can hardly wait!

I am not on Failbook. So how can I respond that I would like to attend?

I've registered two GUMSHOE games: Ashen Stars (picture the Firefly crew as freelance law enforcement) and Night's Black Agents (cinematic super-spies.) Should be great fun.

I don't know what gumshoe is but these sound like fun!
