A number of us. Are you looking for a game or recommendations on how to run one that way?

I am yet another in the throng of LFG's. Maybe we can band together to increase our might.

I am looking to join an existing game or one that is just getting started. I haven't played since before SR4 came out and I'd like to learn to play the new version before I even think of trying to run a game.

Using voice options on skype or aim or yahoo and using maptools for die rolling and maps. It looks like you guys have enough players why don't you form a group. I would be interested. We could do trade off game-mastering |

Depending on when you all chose to meet, I would be interested in playing as well. There is, however, no way I could run SR4. Too many rules I don't know. |

It is not as hard as it looks. Just know the rules that you need. The story is far more important that the rules. Game mastering is less about knowing every rule than making the game flow and engaging the players. The basics are easy. |

I periodically run Online Shadowrun Mission Mods, I've toyed with the idea of running a regular online game but I'd have to re-use plots from my home game a lot.

I'm totally down for playing something, but not running. I want to re-learn the rules first before I jump into things.
I'm free most weekday evenings though I'd kind of like to keep Friday and Saturdays open in case I should miraculously develop a social life... hey, it could happen! Unfortunately due to Sleep Apnea I usually need to be hitting the sack by 10pm CST As for the type of game, I'm flexible as I've generated characters from professional to downright odd...(IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool.gif) |

Wednesdays would work for me and I'd be happy to take turns running a game. Not having much luck getting interest locally and online could be an interesting option.

Thats at least 4 interested and Wednesdays would be fine for me again depending on how late we run.
As fro medium or format...dunno. I've used fantasy Grounds as a player before and it was damn cool, but it costs money and I'd prefer the free option myself unless someone else already has it and has a pile of licenses or has money to burn...(IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool.gif) Someone else mentioned using a chat tool and skype as well. I'm sure a group of techno-geeks that most SR players are can figure something out. Fantasy Ground FYI: http://www.fantasygrounds.com/home/ |

What sort of free tools are you familiar with? I've seen obsidian portal - but never ran anything online. Plenty of computer stuff here so would just need to get familiar with something specifically. |

Maptools is very easy to use for chat and anything dealing with maps, combat movement, or visual aids. I have some good experience with it lately as i run a D&D campaign for a few friends with it.

May not want to post those here. We should probably take this to Messages or to another forum of some nature. Maybe a Yahoo Groups thing or something similar?
I'll have to go download trillian again then and see if I can remember by AIM name and login...8P |
