    Looking for players of all skill levels to participate in an online campaign. GM’s, players, and anyone with any good ideas are welcome. If you have any thoughts on how to run an online campaign, your ideas are appreciated.

    I’d be in, but probably as a player. From my experince it would be best to run it Play by Post via a message board, or Play by email, because a real time system involving AIM or such generally only works for one offs.

    You can always run one using WebRPG or in the few remaining MUX’s that will host tabletop-style games. Then there’s always IRC.

    I’m in the process of setting up my own MUX server for hosting tabletop games because my usual gaming group now lives about 2 hours south of me. I’m still coding dice code and whatnot at the moment, but it’s a pretty good way to go. You can download a port of TinyMUX for just about any operating system at http://www.tinymux.org

    I would love to play some UA online since my books and gaming group are in Canada and I’m way out here in China.

    Sorry to reply so late.

    What size group? I don’t know, really, what would you feel comfortable with? I personally prefer around 3 to 4 people. It’s a little easier to keep track of things with a smaller group, especially if you’re new to GMing.

    Have you decided on what… eh, platform I suppose you’d say… to play on?

    I’ve run Unknown Armies online before. It was pretty good. We used OpenRPG.
    I have described the difference between online and face-to-face gaming as being like the difference between reading a book and watching a movie. There are good and bad points to both, depending on who you are.

    uh what happened? I thought you were going to run a game but communication broke down. might have been caused by an email problem or some other delay
