Find a D&D (or any other tabletop) group to play with

We admit. This Update log comes a "bit" late. But for good reasons. We've been busy, busy working on Groupfinder. After all, we reached 10,000 users and the platform is actively growing. New people are discovering Groupfinder and adding their player profiles or using it to look for their games. For your constant and reliable support, we are very grateful. Thank you to all of you. So lets take a look at what were the main updates and improvements in September. Groupmanager The group managing side of the platform is evolving and growing. We have introduced a number of various tweaks and improvements to make it an even better tool for you and your group. Tiles Multiple new tiles have been added to the Groupmanager, allowing groups to add rulebooks, characters and monsters (from Roll20 and D&D Beyond) to the dashboard of your group's page. You have full control over what you find necessary and useful and what makes the manager useful to you. If you like the concept of the tiles but dont see one that matches your need - you can simply build your own and add it to the tiles library. Your Groupmanager dashboard is yours - customize it by adding relevant tiles to your particular group or game. /images/general-media/1792593736_15rGmolf.png Various other improvements and tweaks have been implemented to make the whole dashboard easier to use and giving the GMs more control over what users can have access to and what you want to keep private. State of tabletop We also posted an updated version of our user analysis in the form of "State of tabletop - 2026". Looking at what you are using Groupfinder for - which game systems, what format and how the ratio of players-to-games looks like. It is definitely an interesting read - and anyone curious about numbers and data is more than welcome to take a look and see what conclusions we were able to make. Messenger and chat The messenger has undergone quite a few design changes - making it more modern and user friendly. The initial approach needed proper love and care. We finally got around to refreshing the way the messenger feels and behaves. Including various performance improvements to help make it even better. Getting in touch with groups or players is now even easier and familiar with how the messengers on other platforms work. Player profiles Players can now find the "Additional info" tab in their player profile page. There you can fill questionnaires to determine your playstyle and preferences, making it easier for others to see what kind of a player you are and whether you'd be a good fit for their game. You can also list your previous game history to give you a space to show off all the games you've been a part of. /images/general-media/1792593833_yNKIsawr.png In addition to the Additional info tab, you will also find a "Characters" tab. If you are waiting to play a specific character concept, feel free to show it off to others. Either to better show others what kind of characters you are planning to play. Or just show off characters you've played in the past. If a character you've created has a themesong or music. Add that as well - give the readers the full experience of who that character is. The Library We have redesigned multiple parts of the library to bring everything up to date with the various bits and pieces that were updated in the past. More tools, game systems, creators and events have been added. And you can suggest more for us to add if you feel like there is something still missing. More focus and room has been given to projects to post updates and news for their projects. Either a new podcast episode gets released, a major update to the tool platform or just something to let others know you are still actively working on it. And more There have been other, smaller server-side improvements to make sure the platform stays fast, easy to use and mostly bug-free. And various tweaks in different parts of the platform that, while important and necessary, would eventually make this Update log too long. Some of those updates were implemented in October, some updates that are live will be discussed in next month's Update log. As this log gets posted a bit later than we'd like, it sits in a weird limbo between September and October. But again, thank you for being here, using Groupfinder and hopefully telling others about the platform. Till next time
