Are there any active Metamorphosis Alpha forums around? The only two I've found are here, the "official" one, and the Goodman Games forum. I've recently started to get interested in MA and would like to know where the most active forum is. This forum seems semi-active and I could post here but I wanted to see if there was somewhere else I should look.

I haven't been able to successfully register for the official forum though I thought there might be a hidden section that is not for public viewing. The answer may be that there just isn't a very active community. If that's the case, I'd be happy to post questions/comments here if this is the best place - maybe get some discussion going.

Thanks,
Kevin

I've also had no luck with the official forum. Here is a good place, if you post I'd be happy to see more life around here.

Also, there's the Google+ page:
plus.google.com/communities/116604194143817399386

Plenty of discussion going on there.

You've pretty much mentioned the "big three" for Metamorphosis Alpha discussion. Frankly, I'm not sure why you'd need much more. Craig's official site is where Jim Ward hangs out, which makes it all sorts of awesome. The Goodman site is home to the new printing and new materials, so it gets a little chatter for that. This place is full of old school gamers, which caters to the right kind of philosophy. I think that covers most of the bases.

The problem is that MA is a "niche" game without a lot of players, so not much chatter. I'd suggest you start some threads on one of the three sites and see what happens rather than looking for more sites, because those other sites probably get less traffic than we do.
