When I first joined the site It took a little while before I was able to join a game. During that time I got my 'fix' by reading other games on the site. I mainly read the Lost Souls game, and went all the way back to the very first posts to read (at that time) three years worth of game. It was great! Unfortunately I haven't been able to keep up with it lately with all of my other game commitments, but I love the dully-fleshed out homebrew world Jaded created, the thoughtful history, and the diversity of the locales.
So, for anyone reading this:
-Which games do you enjoy reading that you aren't an active participant in?
-What are your favorite things about it/them
Your #1 Source for online D&D gaming!
Which games are you following?

Re: Which games are you following?
I have to admit when we first started I was in every game we had running.. But as time has progressed (and my mental state worsened and then got better) I've not really kept track of the other games.
I did lurk in the games I left but only for a short while...
Interesting question, I wonder if anyone from the 'main site' lurks here too?

Re: Which games are you following?
From an administration POV, I follow every game to make sure nobody is breaking rules or causing trouble or whatever.
As for following a game's story, having an invested interest in it, I don't pay attention to any game I'm not already in. It stands to reason if I was interested in a game, I'd ask to join it. I have no clue what is happening, story-wise, in any game I'm not involved in.
In fact, in games I am involved in, but where the characters are split up in different threads (like chese's game), I don't even pay attention to what's going on in the different threads. That's more to keep IC and OOC knowledge as separate as possible, though.

Re: Which games are you following?
Generally the same as Jaded.
I try not to read other players' posts in the games I'm in, although I skim read (retaining little or nothing) just looking for anything pointed in my direction.
I did read 5 chapters of Jaded's LS:O to get a feel for how stuff was done.
And I've read the 1st Chapter of Waterdeep as I'm a long term FR fan.
