Chapter Structure[edit]
The structure, play style, and gaming schedule of a particular chapter may vary greatly from another. The organization is based off the gaming habits and abilities/availabilities of the gamers directly involved, and as such is extremely variable on a chapter to chapter basis.
Founding a Chapter[edit]
As an unofficial moniker, anyone may form a chapter to help give a persona to their group's (or town's/region's) gaming lifestyle. Typically, the name consists of [Your Town's Nickname Here] Ogres (i.e. Las Vegas is referred to as Sin City, hence the name Sin City Ogres). Logos and chapter-specific recruitment information can then be passed around with the name. Using the logo of another chapter (while altering the chapter name portion) is encouraged.
Benefits of O.G.R.E.[edit]
By creating a persona for your gaming group, you provide the region with an easily-identifible and remembrable name in which they can use to network into your gaming circle. Proper recruitment and word-spreading in your town's gaming centers (i.e. Comic Shops, Game sections at book stores, game stores, etc.) can increase your pool of available players drastically, and hopefully create lifelong friends.
