Yeah! We naturally sort on upcoming session, with all times being in your browsers local timezone, but we need to make that more apparent. We're thinking about better sort options, but also trying to balance the amount of space that se

Hi Dataminded! Yes! This is something we have all talked about as future optimizations for the best user experience. We'll be changing a lot of our buttons over to links first. We plan to change how our GM search functions to make it e

We let GM's set their own prices. So we expect a lot of prices to fluctuate as demand continues to drive them up, or lower as more GMs join the platform.

Oh yeah! The buy-in presented to GM's needs some TLC. Now that we have become "official official" we are gonna have our lawyers help with our ToS and working with some convention folks on a better Code of Conduct presentation

I feel this so much! We're hoping to roll out a "Play Now" option down the road so you don't need to plan to be free. I think finding a way to find really flexible GMs would be helpful for solving this too.

Thank you! Really excited to get more people playing. Demand kind of moved up due to a lot of folks never having the chance to play, and this helped them break into the hobby.

Amazing! Yeah, our search has two options, one for groups and one for individuals, so you can find a game for either. So glad to see groups of friends getting back together and adventuring again.

It's so funny, we see a lot of forever DMs using our service for this exact reason! OHHH, play by post could be so fun! Thanks for that suggestion. I'm sure we have some GM's who would enjoy that.
