This seems like a good time to mention the new [SDMB Team Fortress 2 server](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=591447).

Check the thread for details, and [join the Straight Dope Message Board group on Steam](http://steamcommunity.com/groups/sdmb).

All skill levels are welcome!

Star Wars The Old Republic has launched! One of the SDMB guilds can be found on the server “ **Master Zhar Lestin** ”  
Currently there is only an Alliance-side guild called the “ **Burning Womp Rats** ” but I’m sure someone will come along with the name of the Sith side guild. There is also a [thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=625834) in The Game Room with ongoing conversation about the guild and those in it.

Come join us and take part in the fight!  
And May the Force be With You. Always.

Also in SWTOR on the Master Zhar Lestin server, we now have a guild for you Sith Empire types - **Nineteen-twenties Death Star**. So whether you’re protecting the galactic republic with your lightsaber or scheming and backstabbing your way to Imperial power, there’s a Doper guild for you!

I’ve been playing in **What Exit** ’s post-LOTR RPG for quite awhile now on [Mellophant.com](http://Mellophant.com).  
[Middle Earth FA65 D&D Game: Tenth Adventure – On to the Quest](http://www.mellophant.com/forums/showthread.php?13114-Middle-Earth-FA65-D-amp-D-Game-Tenth-Adventure-%E2%80%93-On-to-the-Quest)

And I’ve been running my own post-_Star Trek: The Original Series_ RPG, also on Mellophant, for almost two years.

**The Secret World**

I’ve created a Templar cabal, _Ordo Ophidia Cecilius_, that is open to Dopers looking for a little sensible chat and occasional mutual assistance. Based on experience with our _City_ supergroups, it is likely to be mostly a casual social channel, possibly with shared conveniences when and if cabal headquarters are added. I do not presently plan on recruiting in-game, so this is the only place you’ll hear about it.

You can PM me here or contact me as Btyrr in-game if you’re interested in joining.

Any other Doper conspiracies out there? Dragon or Illuminati cabals, perhaps?
