I have seen several threads containing players looking for a game and figured I could give it a shot. I would prefer the use of free programs to communicate. There are several virtual tabletops out there that we could try, but I am also fine with the idea of just using chat programs since I am useless with maps anyway. The virtual tabletops offer us a way to at least see where were things are in relation to each other and a built in dice roller, so that might not be a bad idea. I am new at the system, so we will all be learning together. My schedule opens up at about 9 pm eastern on any given day. I occasionally have to work early Sundays, so games on Saturday would be short. If possible I prefer something like skype as well so that we can talk to each other but it is not necessary if it poses a problem. On a side note I intend to use the same setting and plot that I am using in a play by post game. By all chances this game will move faster, but it would likely be better if you all did not watch that game as they may have things revealed that you have not gotten to yet. |

Anything you can offer would be greatly appreciated. I am hoping that we can start discussing times and days once people have shown interest. Saturdays are being to look good based on what I have been reading on other peoples threads. Push comes to shove I am able to adjust my sleep schedule to accommodate work and play. |

I might be interested, depending on what day is decided on. (Saturdays are fine, for the record.) When would we be starting? |

Well, two of you have explicitly indicated that Saturdays work. Based on the schedule given by another Saturdays should work for them as well. The only one that did not indicate that Saturdays should work is the one that asked to be put on the maybe list. Given that I would say that we choose Saturday. Once we work out a time of day we can get together next time it rolls around. The first session will mostly focus on making sure we have everything ready. Depending on how much we complete in the down time we may begin actually playing or we may just end up spending the whole session working on character creation and getting to understand the tools we are using. I always figure that the first session will be lost to working out the bugs, but prepare for it to be an actual session in case things go well. |

I'm interested in playing, too! I've never played a game of Pokemon Tabletop Adventures before, and I've never played an RPG online before, but it looks fun! And Saturday evenings work for me - I'm in Australia, but 9pm Saturday EST converts to 12 pm Sunday for me, which is fine. Is there anything else we need to know for creating our character? I've got one ready, but I can change her if the setting requires or do up a new one entirely. |

My weekends are flexible like Gumby. I support the 9pm timeslot by virtue of it's the only one that's been mentioned. Any other times anyone cares to mention, I'll support as well. |
