Hello there chaps!

My name isn't Dave, and I'm new.

I've been developing an rpg system and setting over the last 6 months, and it's almost ready for playtesting.

I've had a poke about the forums and some of the topics, and read the stickies already.

I'd like to garner some feedback, advice, ideas and whatnots; but I have no clue what to ask. Help?

Go raibh míle maith agat!

Hi Richard!!

The more important post you should read is this one:
http://www.indie-rpgs.com/forge/index.php?topic=30746.0

It contains all the rules you have to follow to get feedback on your game (very important, for example: having a link to a game document in another site, you can't just post your system in this forum) and some good advices (posting about your game experiences in actual play, for example)

Please read that post, and ask here if there is still something that isn't clear about the process.
Ciao,
Moreno.

Hello Moreno!

Thanks for your reply. I have read that post yes, and was sort of the cause for my confusion - mainly because I have a lot of stuff written up already that I'd like some input on.

What are the sorts of questions that I should go about asking?
