I’m wondering if Dopers know of other good forums that have good games running. I mean, the SDMB is great, but I usually wind up missing out on the start of games. If I had more forums to choose from, I might actually get in on the ground floor.

Let’s not mention the splinter boards. I already know about them. And they seem to provoke controversy around here.

ETA: And I also know about [idlemafia.com](http://idlemafia.com)

I used to hang out at D&D Online games a while back.

There main focus was 3/3.5, but they frequently had other systems whether other version of D&D or something else entirely.

And apparently, they’re running a Werewolf (i.e. Mafia) game right now.
