*casts topic resurrection*
I've been noticing that some people are having trouble making gaming night on tuesdays, so I'd like to put up the idea of online roleplaying on a site like myth-weavers or a program like openRPG.

So, it's there anything we need to do before playing the game, prep wise. For example, get dice and number counting and such.

Also, all of you are on my list of being punched, repeated, with giant toy air filled fist balloons.

ok there seems to be enough interest that we can actually do a game. as for how this works first you need to get a myth-weavers account, then create a character, after that send me a message and I'll invite you to the game. the game it self will be similar to forum RPs except using myth-weavers dice roller when necessary.

so what game system is everyone interested in?

Colour me interested! I'm actually in 2 Myth-Weavers games right now. One's starting up, and one is about to start. For those unfamiliar with the site and the way things are run up there, this link should help:

http://www.myth-weavers.com/wiki/index.php/Help:Myth-Weavers:DiceRoller

Shows how to handle dice rolls up there. Don't worry about cheating, since their anti-cheat methods are quite effective.

I'm down with D&D 3.5e, maybe M&M.

Please please please can we make this a test-bed for homebrew :P? Homebrew makes things more interesting, after all :D

PS: Private messages within the game forum are also easy to use, by using the [private="username"][/private] (the brackets are necessary), so the DM can easily conceal information from players and keep track of things on the forum (by writing private text to him/herself.

PS2: ChiChi, I just beat your Geo Challenge score (25k woohoo!)

I'd vote for DnD 3.5 since that's the system I'm most familiar with. Yay for online RPing!
