We need a Palladium Player Finder!!

[Spinachcat]

For many years, I have seen a multitude of players post a version of this message "I love XYZ game, but nobody in my town plays XYZ and I don't know how to find players." My response has always been that I am sure that potential players are sitting around THAT SAME TOWN wondering the SAME THING!

Does anyone know of a good online player finder?

Does anyone know who PB could develop their own? (or be gifted one?)

If you wonder what I am talking about, here's what I mean.

You go to a website. You log in your zip code and the radius you would drive for a game (10 miles, 25 miles, 50 miles, etc).
Then you put the type of games you would want to play.
Then you get a list of other website members also interested in that game in your radius. Then you could PM all those members via that website so you could join their games or invite them into your own.

Blammo. New gaming group.

How do we make that happen?

There was a player list here at PB……I don't know if it is still active.

There is forum for looking for players/games next tot he gameroom announcements forum.

Well lookie here.

Petty tyrants thrive when they have authority backed by vague regulations.

Gamers looking for Gamers style forums are a good start, but I am thinking of something more akin to Nearby Gamers. Forum posts are passive and get dated very fast. What I am thinking would be more evergreen and more active in its ability to connect people.

On Facebook I started a community a long time ago that has regular Palladium Players called the Tabletop RPG One Shot Group. Also I have a new community called Tabletop Gaming with Juce which has been steadily growing and I plan to do more for games there as well.
