Moved this to 'Welcome to the Shadows'.
You should have much better luck finding a pbp game in this forum. For a pbim game, you might also create a topic in the GM/Player Registry |

Maybe would could get someone to GM a game for all the ex/future/current military men and women we've got? I'd love it if we could.

Me either, but I'm no GM. Not enough expierience playing, plus I'm a crappy GM, as proved by DnD countless times. Once again, if anyone wants to GM this, you've got at least 1 garunteed player who'll actually post!

I'm not in the military, but I've been looking to join a game lately. I don't mean to threadjack, but if you needed someone else then I would love to join. I've loved SR for years, but I've never been able to find a solid game that I wasn't forced to GM (which I'm horrible at, too). So, um, yeah. If there's going to be something going on, I'd love to be part of it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/grinbig.gif) I'd be able to post often, too, as I often need breaks from my schoolwork.

Hell, I'd be interested in anything from street level to being experienced mercs or runners. And congrats on your first post Goldirocks. So we got at least three people as commited players, or so it seems. And DocTaotsu does this mean you're interested in GMing for us sorry lot?

im pretty new to both these boards and Shadowrun (im currently playing with a group irl for the first time, weve met like 5 times-ish), but if thats not a problem id be interested in joining what seems like a forming group here.
i also have a character already created, but could easily make a new one if need be. (and i feel really noobish asking this, but im guessing pbp and pbim mean play by post and play by instant message, respectively?) |

I could be conned into GMing provided we came up with an interesting premise. I'm pretty uh... open ended as far as story goes, I typically don't mind having players dig their own holes...

I'd be up for playing Shadowrun again. PBEM for preference.
Disclosure: I know DocTaotsu in meatspace. |

I'd say play by post, and a nice low sandbox style game. And please people, if you come asking for a game, why just let the thought die there?

The first thing you guys have going against you is a low post rate. pbp games take a long time to complete. My experience is a consistent post rate of 1+/week. Is this something you are willing to commit to? What specific flavor of game? Street-level? Established runners? Seattle? Hong-Kong? L.A.?

I honestly lurk a lot, and this seems to be the only way I could actually get a game in. So the posting/commitment issue isn't a problem for me. Personally, I'd like to play something in Seattle, though anything would make me happy (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

i would easily be able to commit to 1+ a week. I've been checking on this thread, just havent posted because i was waiting for some feedback.
As for the actual setting of the game, i have no real personal preference in regards to location, and i guess if given the option I'd prefer to start as being new to running. But really, I'm up for about anything, so it's whatever you guys want to do. |

I'd love to play a hacker, since I just got Unwired (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Still brushing up on the rules since it's been a while since I've been able to play.

Lurking, but I'm restricted to 3e... either level is fine by me, but I hold a preference to merc-based games. Note that I'm not a service-member myself.

Not many 3e games going in the forums. Several of the other members discuss playing sr3, but I think those are table-top games.

I've played in some PbP's, but I've had crap luck with them... the GMs seem to get distracted by RL or just lose interest and it fades away. I'm willing to play in a game if somebody's willing to run it and stick with it.
If we do a game, I'd love to play the technomancer... failing that, I'd love to do some sort of magician. I always have fun with those. |

Don't know how many people are in already. If you've still got a place left, I'd join as well. Haven't had a 3rd Edition game for quite a while.

Yeah, that's what I was hoping for, but it seems we've been threadjacked since my last check on this, eh fistandantilus4.0?
And as for a role, I'd take combat adept. And I can commit to anything below once a day. I'm usually on once ever 2 days, so once a week is easy for me. |
