I'm trying to get back into gaming. I read Man of Gold to get some inspiration but it was very bad. What are some cool planner/cosmic fantasy sources? Even sword and planet is good. I haven't played an rpg since 2003. I have no idea what is out there.

I'm not sure if cosmic is the right word. Planescape, Silver Surfer, Drullet's Lone Sloane, Metabarons, that kind of thing.

Are bars with game nights common in the English speaking world? I have seen exactly one here in Italy, and even then it only did some sort of quiz show and nothing else.

Pub Trivia? Isn't that a thing everywhere?

Somewhere between fantasy wrestling and roleplay, as I understand it. Heavy PvP elements, basically, much like Pokemon board RP.

Plus creative writing. There are two kinds of efeds. Angle, which is basically two people get together and plan out the storyline for their wrestlers and write the storyline in instalments. climax and resolution comes on the card or where you write a match. A Role-Play thread is where a "booker" matches you up against another person and you both write some prose. The better story wins the match which is written by a guy who only writes matches...ugh, not that I would know or anything.
