Discord

Like much of the fleet, TBR makes use of its own Discord server. We have three primary categories: Announcements, To Boldly Roll (Public Channels), and Member Channels (Private Channels). We do also have an Admin channel but this one is boring, and the bots are in it, and only the Command Team has access to this one!

The first is the announcement channel, here we post; using RSS feeds all of our news items and story posts from the Nova site as well as the news items that are posted by Obsidian Fleet. This channel is viewable to everyone and we also use it for announcements about sessions/episodes that are about to start. We just started using the events section for special events, this is new to us and frankly could have been used much sooner, if anyone had thought about it!

The second category is To Boldly Roll. This is our Public channel, it is here that the majority of the interaction between the players and the listeners happens. It is also here that my Co-GM; Nikki posts the outtakes from her editing of our sessions into shorter, easier to laugh along with audio clips. One of our venerable players, Will also has a music channel here and when the mood takes him he will link to a Spotify playlist for a ‘party’. We also have a ‘Question of the day’ discussion channel. Here a question is posed and debate encouraged! In all the To Boldly Roll category is maybe our most active channel and we all encourage free discord (within the rules) and everyone is welcome to come and comment.

Our third category is a private, members only place. Here the voice players and writing team can gather and talk about the RPG— all that behind the scenes kind of stuff. We have a number of channels here which help us to organize our game play, toss up resources, tease one another, and plan our schedule and many other behind the scenes sundry that you only get access to if you join!

Our live chat sessions take place on the server stage channel. While the Bridge Crew have admin access in order to speak on the stage, anyone else can come and listen to the show as it happens. The Live play is audible to anyone either via listening into the discord voice channel where the “Bridge Crew” voice members log in for the session or by following Matt’s twitch account which also logs the session for later viewing.
