Also in.

My gut reaction is to say sci-fi, but watching Critical Role, the whole fantasy thing seems really fun too. So I'm pretty much down for whatever right now.

System wise, I've never actually played an RPG before, I understand some of the basic concepts and stuff, but nothing in practice. So yeah, something more accessible would be good.

And availability. That's as tough one, my schedule is all over the place. But if we can schedule far enough in advance and have like a day, I can usually make it work. That said, saturdays are pretty much always booked up for me, but sundays are much more avilable, and then time during the week depends on what my part time job throws at me. And I am mountain standard time.

Also I will say, I would love to be able to like record and post play sessions if they actually turn out and are good content. But that's going to depend on the rest of the group. But I thought I'd throw it out there now.

I would also say just on a technical level I think it's a must that everyone who wants to play has some sort of webcam/video capabilities, so we can all see each other. And we'll need to find a system that will work well for something like this, like Google hangout or skype or what have you. Owen, you probably know more about that than I do.

Setting: I'm cool with fantasy or sci-fi, but I think I lean more towards fantasy (i think I just want an excuse to use overly-wrought language. forsooth).

System: I haven't played anything like this before. If this is happening, and we have something certain, I'm more than willing to find a rulebook and learn the system

Schedule: I am E.S.T. and evenings would be better if it's a weekday. (Or anytime on the weekend).

I am excite!

edit: yeah, the google-hangout system you use for Extended Edition seems like it would work out real well for this.

I've used a roll20 plugin for Hangouts, it worked great.

I'm in, would just need to figure out the webcam situation (have a headset for audio though).

It's worth trying. If it turns out it's not your thing, no worries.

I'd be willing to give it a try as I have been interested in attempting a table-top RPG for some time now. Online might be easier given my wacky work schedule.

Webcam is not possible right away, but I will be taking steps to change that. Still set for audio though.

Setting: I am down for either, though I prefer science fiction. I find already established worlds easier for me to immerse myself in to because I am big on world building and knowing all the lore and ins-and-outs of a world. But, the right fantasy world (not LOTR-yet...I probably could be persuaded without much difficulty) could draw me in.

Maybe a cyber punk style setting?

I would totally be down for some cyberpunk craziness.

I've never done an RPG but I'd but up for giving it a go.

I've done my fair share of DnD back when 3.5 were the newest rule set, playing rogues and druids, but having said that, these things take up far too much time. A session can easily take 6 hours, which I just don't have at any given time.

Hmm.

I can usually squirrel away 4-5 hours at a time, maaaybe 6, if it's far enough in advance. No way I could do 7-10+.

Yeah, I might have to observe until I can determine the full amount of time. Rotating work schedule can be a pain to plan around.

The time commitment is one reason why I have not been able to do one even with my friends.
