As you may have heard, Wizards of the Coast has decided to stop hosting the Dungeons & Dragons Virtual Table. I am here to let you know that GameTable Online is in the process of adopting the VT platform and are preparing to host it at our new RPG portal. GTO coded and developed the VT so we are very familiar with the platform and are excited to be going live with this roleplaying game application.


The anticipated name for the new VT will be RPGTable Online and we have claimed the URL address of www.rpgtableonline.com.  We have some work to do to prepare for the transition but expect to be back to hosting online RPG sessions by the end of July! The details are still be worked out but we will let you know how we envision the RPGTO moving forward.


A big concern for us was making sure that your existing VT Dungeons & Dragons campaigns are transferred to RPGTO. To transfer your active campaigns to RPGTable Online all you need to do is register at www.gametableonline.com before we go live and email your GTO User Name and VT Screen Name to support@gametableonline.com. When the transition to the GTO site goes forward, we will port them over so all of your campaigns will be waiting for you!


GTO has been hosting online board games, since 2003 so we know and love games. We are looking forward to the opportunity to expand our online games to include an RPG application.

Thanks Rob for picking Vittie up ! Wink

I hope GTO will give her more luv than her predecessor. (More Tokens and Tiles etc...)


Very happy that you retained the Campaign Manager as is too.  Looking forward to play on your site !

Hey Rob,

This is great news on the back of the shock of the Broadcast telling us the VT was about to be closed down.   So thanks for that.  It might be too soon to say but do you plan/are you able to continue to support import of PCs and Monsters direct from our DDi accounts (whilst they remain valid)?

Cheers
Blakey

P.S.  I have registered my new account already!

Hey, that's a spot of good news! I wasn't able to use the VTT much because I was lucky enough to have local games (and unlucky in regards to my college friends wanting to game online), but having that option would be fantastic.

I've replaced the previous Edition Warring line in my sig with this one, because honestly, everybody needs to work together to make the D&D they like without trampling on somebody else's D&D.

When you get your replies, can you (within reason) post them here please?  I'm sure we'd all be very interested in the responses you get...

Cheers!

i will more likely pm them to you bc i have some questions that i dont want wizards privy too. i consider wotc to be a churlish, spiteful lot, so i would hate to see them to seek to punish this other business
