And actually, since I'm organizing an RPG online with other Buffistas, consider this an open invitation to anyone else interested in playing Shadowrun 4 with us (Drew, Kristin, MM, omnis and myself, along with possibly another friend of ours). You'll need a Windows computer and a Fantasy Grounds 2 Lite license, but the invitation has been issued.

I'd be interested, but for the time difference.

but for the time difference.

Indeed. I'd adore having you in the game, but yes, the time difference would be a beast. But if ever for any reason it looks like you might be available to play at whatever o'clock in the whatever it turns out to be in antipodean time, you're still invited.

That'd be good. I feel we might have better luck with one-offs.

In the past we've had to deal with plenty of folks that can't be there every single time so I'd think we'd be able to accommodate some schedule wonkiness.

Also, Drew, Kristin, MM and omnis have all been invited to join a yahoo group for the game. It's an invite only group, so check your inboxes.

I decided against using our old LA Crusaders google group, since it's really become unsuitable for our current game planning needs, and I wanted a new group to cover only the invited people.

BT, I'll invite you too, if you like, but for now, I figured keeping you abreast of the planned sessions in this here thread will do just as well.

That's cool, I wouldn't mind keeping abreast. I'm still on the mailing list for the Yahoo group of my old gaming group in Philly.

You've just been invited, BT.

I appreciate the sentiment, but this would be fairly systemic schedule wonkiness.

I mean.... *probably*. Probably not alone. *Some*body else would probably find that really funny.

Hypothetically speaking.

Of course, I *do* want the outfit I ended up purchasing for my character. Okay, yes, I have most of it already. But pink top hat! I need one!

My friends found the way to keep me motivated to play the game. I HATED the outfit my character started out with, and was compelled to earn money so she could have proper clothing. Pete found this hysterical.

I found it hysterical because she was not urged, teased or cajoled to keep playing, but once she'd gotten a taste of upgrading her character's outfit she played for another two hours to get the money to get a real ensemble.

Comedy frikkin' gold.
