Issue posting to MotW subreddit:

Not sure if this is an appropriate place to post this, but I’ve noticed the MotW subreddit hasn’t had any new posts in about a month. It’s not a huge community, but it used to get a few posts a week. It has suddenly it stopped getting new posts! I tried to create a new post and I got the alert saying “you’re not allowed to post here.” I wonder if others are having similar difficulties posting to the subreddit.

Apologies if a post like this is inappropriate for this page.

Hi, all! I’m going to run a Monster of the Week campaign starting this Fall. I’ve run the MotW system before and I think it will lend itself well to the first part of the campaign. The setting will be somewhat urban, there will be a regular stream of big-bads for the Hunters to deal with, and the fiction is ripe for the players and me to co-construct the world and mythos. However, there will eventually come a time when the Hunters must “go beyond the wall,” as it will be, and leave the urban setting behind.

I’m not sure how to run a MotW campaign in a “journey through the unknown” setting. I had even considered switching systems for the second part! But I suspect I can supplement MotW with some custom player and keeper moves.

Has anyone run MotW campaign outside a consistent setting? Any ideas for adapting the system with new moves and mechanics?

Thanks!
