I let you know recently that I’ve been closing inactive games. Some of these games actually had pretty good ideas, and well planned worlds. So might have become inactive for many reasons, some never made it past a few posts, maybe some just didn’t attract ebnough members, and maybe some were just too complicated.
Here’s some that caught my eye as I closed them, and perhaps we can speculate in the comments about why they didn’t continue, the good news is that I have added new games, and now we can all use these Rise of Kingdoms Guides and Strategies to have some fun. Read More

Hey dudes, I’ve been archiving some old games today, so that the list of games only shows current, active games. The game owners of each game have been emailed to let them know. I’m deleting games that haven’t had a post in at least 3 months, but some of them are even older than that like the crossword puzzles, some not having posts for a year or even 2.
This isn’t a permanent delete, these games can be reactivated if you think the game is worth bringing back. Tbh some of them sounded like they had good ideas for worlds to roleplay in, but perhaps didn’t get the attention they deserved when they were first started. To reactivate a game, email the moderators using this form.

Hey dudes, I mentioned this as an idea in our Facebook group last week & John’s already contributed. So that makes it an official thing! Let’s do this!
What you have to do – Draw/sketch/paint/Photoshop up a typical scene from your game’s world. Then either upload it to the Facebook group, send it to us on Twitter (@ongoingworlds), or upload to Imgur & post the link in the comments below.

I love play-by-post games, they’re great. My favourite game, Blue Dwarf (which has been now running for 15 years!) inspired me last year to create a different type of game though. Read More
