I'm glad you liked the show. I hope you stick around. :) (And tell your friends! I've found that most independent podcasts don't give the RPGA its due, and we try to treat both home and organized gaming more fairly around here.) Welcome to the PodgeCast Cedric.

Every campaign can certainly be variable with different players and alignments within those stories. [I liken it to replaying a game like Mass Effect as both an evil and good character for anyone familiar with that game.] Modules have a tendency to be fairly static / linear but, as you mentioned, if the modules allow the DM to 'riff' off the storyline a bit, the replayability factor has merit. Will check it out -- Thanks Shawn and Michael! Interesting concept for adventures. Every campaign can certainly be variable with different players and alignments within those stories.

First time listener here (linked from the RPGA forums). Checking out the rest of your stuff and liking what I'm hearing :) Great interview btw. Interesting to hear the views of some of the admins of the campaign. I found the comments about people traveling less to match my own experiences as well. I live in California and was a triad for LG (Pale) and also traveled a lot previously. But I haven't traveled anywhere since LFR and have only attended local cons. Been playing a lot more though, which is a strange thing. None of our local RPGA-only cons have survived, so all of our local RPGA games have moved on to stores and other non-RPGA cons. Hey there.
