Hello!
I’ve just backed the Kickstarter campaign after a week of excitedly following its rise and rise. Lovely stuff.
Although in some respects Blades in the Dark is not the ideal game for the format, I’m interested in either playing or running a play-by-post campaign on (probably) www.tavern-keeper.com or similar (see link).
I’m based in the UK and have limited time availability for Hangouts or face-to-face meetings, so the format is ideal for me. And I know I’m not alone in that!
Same here. I am absolutely down for a PbP game.
Excellent! Please let me know how it goes. I am also trying out how the system works in a pbp format.
While I’ve done lots of pbp, I have never heard of tavern-keeper.com but it looks really slick! Can players or GM post images into their posts or only on the wiki or character pages?
Adam Minnie I’m not sure, I’ve never tried this. The system is in beta, I think, and some things leave something to be desired (particularly character sheets) but overall my experience has been pretty positive.
I am interested in PbP. I have used tavern keeper before. Posting images seemed pretty easy in the threads.
Cheers! I would be interested in a PbP tryout of the system. Haven’t used tavern keeper before, but it looks promising!

Also interested and habe Tavern keeper experience.
I think it should do well via PbP due to the short times that TT games generally take to complete a score, which is about 2 hours, according to John. That means you could probably complete a score in a month, easily. That’s huge for PbP!
Also, as long as the one on point is active, he others can lag a bit. At the moment, I’m experimenting with polls to keep discussion posts/time to a minimum.
Ah polls would be hugely helpful in the decision making processes.
I have posted the bones of a campaign in Tavern Keeper. If you are interested, you are welcome to badger me to get an invite.
I’ve never used Tavern Keeper before, but I’d definitely be interested in trying some pbp.
Marcus Shepherd what’s the name of the campaign?
It’s called War in Crow’s Foot and is at https://www.tavern-keeper.com/campaign/856/
I have found the dice mechanic on Tavern Keeper to be sub par so I might have to investigate other methods.
Marcus Shepherd , what’s your complaint about the dice? Also I sent a join request.
No problems anymore, I seem to have worked it out. All join requests have been approved. Given the nature of play-by-post, I’d say there’s probably room for another player…
