Not sure if this community is dead, but here we are!
I kind of stopped playing new versions around .28 because I really disliked the opportunity attacks mechanism, but I thought I'd give .32 a try. The new shapeshifter things look cool, but in fussing with it a bit it's harder than I expected.
But now the tournament is live! Who's playing?

I currently have one win with ye olde MiBe. Got lucky with good armor early on, and then cruised to a 3 rune (shoals + snake + vaults) win.
There was one dicey moment in the lungs where I went around the corner to reveal 4 orbs of fire, some draconians, and a lightning golem all waiting for me. Hasted + Fog'd my way the hell out there.
I tried it a bit with my reaper in pve and it seemed okay, but I wasn't doing anything challenging that really put it to the test. I haven't tried the others classes yet.
Currently, I'm polite to friendly with all of them. No outstanding conflicts. It's sometimes literal kitchen table poly with one, and the others I only see at like parties and such.
Some years ago I had two partners that absolutely did not get along with each other, and that was rough. Recently I was able to do a dinner with 3 partners and everyone had a good time.
I try not to make a big deal about folks meeting. I try to model after meeting your friend's friends.
For me there's a bit of a network effect where the polycule sprawls out into the distance. Partners have partners who have partners.
But for disconnected folks, it's mostly been tinder (yuck), and a local meetup.
(Also this might be the first post? That or nothing federated yet)
I'm looking for players for a weekly game of Fate. I'm thinking something like a mix of Shadowrun and World of Darkness, where the players are vigilantes looking to make the world better. It would start (and maybe stay) at the street level, rather than global or cosmic.
I've been playing and running games for 20+ years.
LGBT friendly. New players okay. Unreliable players less so.
Message me if you're interested. Include a blurb about yourself, your experience with games, with fate specifically, and a joke of your choosing.
Like I saw one that was titled "I wonder why rule" and had a picture about overpaid CEOs or something.
Why "rule"? What's the origin of this format?
