    I just recently discovered the Pen & Paper gamers database, you might try that for locating local gamers: http://www.penandpapergames.com/ It didn't help for my area, but you might have different results.

    I haven't tried the virtual tabletop software for running a game yet. Might be worth a try to see how it works out.

    I've been an rpger for decades now, and it's getting harder and harder to find players; I know how William feels! I'm in Stoke, England, and I might as well be on Mars as far as getting a CoC game going. Though I shouldn't complain too much, as I'm currently running a Vampire Dark Ages game set in my own version of Rus and I can sneak in Cthulhu themes and ideas.

    You don't happen to play this over any VOIP or virtual Tabletop software do you? I have been trying forever it seems to get into a game. Apparently Tabletop RPG's have gone completely underground or extinct in my town.

    Salutations Jay,
    I have been a Fan of the Mythos and the system for many years. I used to run CoC at gaming conventions in the 90's, but got away from it. I will be starting fresh in 2009, at Dreamation 2009, In Morristown NJ. I will check back on this page from time to time. Happy New Year!

    If you have a group playing for the first time, which of the books would you recommend?

    Cool page! Ive been playing the RPF for a year, and the moderator is very good. I recommend the game highly as a rainy day kinda thin, or those like me who are too poor to do anything else......
