Hello everyone,

I am very new to the FG software and would like to find a few games where I can simply watch and learn how the software works. The documentation is very brief. Xorne's videos are spectacular (thank you, Xorne!), but it would still be very helpful if I could watch a few games in progress. I just want to lurk and occasionally ask a few questions when they come up (out of band, so they don't interrupt game play) and see how the software works in practice.

If you wouldn't mind an RPG voyeur for a session, please let me know. I would be very grateful. I'm available most evenings, EST.

Thanks!

The problem with this is that it's difficult to observe the process from a client and still learn anything. What will you be observing? You won't have access to the other player's character (this is a FG2 limitation), and you won't see how other players are making attacks and such. Are you sure it's worthwhile?
