East coast USA? If you are in the EDT zone, you're on GMT-4. I am GMt+10. This means 19:00 Sunday evening for me is 5:00am Sunday morning for you. From Second October the whole Daylight time switch happens and to reduce the impact I am poushing the time back an hour, so it will then be 4:00am for you. Kainguru will be between us on about GMT+1 (I think). A bit more of a civilized hour for him The things we do for gaming time......

It's looking like we will be me Refereeing, with the magic number of FIVE players (4 being the ideal and the fifth player being for the inevitable no-show). Exciting

I'm actually in a friday Roll20 savage worlds game starting this week! Pretty stokes since I'll finally get to play the Slipstream plot point campaign.

I also didn't know about this sub-forum, and have been trying to get back into gaming. Listening to the podcasts here is like being teased.

I personally play on line exclusively these days and have done so for years at this point. Like anything else it comes down to networking. I almost always recruit from people I know first. Since I play in a good deal of games, I meet people that way. Occasionally we'll invite someone we find without vetting, but it is rare. I use roll20 or G+ groups for my online gaming needs, the number of people is just vastly bigger, hence you are more likely to find someone who is interested, Happy jacks may have a core of listeners, but the people active on the forum are dwarfed by the number of people on roll20 lfg every day.

A shout out to maxinstuff here, who is running a great on-line Traveller sandbox campaign. I joined the crew again after three weeks away, in time to rescue an Aslan Damsel in Distress, laugh at some fascist Solumani crewmate GK, laying on thick just to wind them up, and hey, run some guns past Imperial customs and excise at a massive profit. I think the crew is really starting to gel, we've identified our Jayne (every crew has a Jayne) and we're tightening our bonds of trust. Ooh and don't tell stevensw, but I learned a new skill too. Thanks maxinstuff and my fellow players. It's good to be back in the Marches

Awww thanks man I am really happy with the group of players we have ended up with too - I think we really lucked out -- a few from these forums and a couple of randoms from r/lfg could really have gone either way MgT2e is still very early in it's release cycle too which I think helped. I always found the 1e line to be hard to crack beyond the core book - too much stuff!

Yeah I still need to start developing a character beyond shooting things first...I admit it tends to be bad habit I have as a player..For some reason my mind goes to violence as my first soulution..like my logic with the barista, we could spend ten minutes discussing her possible motives for following us or I could hold a gun to her head and make her give us the answers quick...which could have gone wrong if she was something important and had armed guards hidden in bar with their guns pointing right back at me.

maxinstuff, Just in case you don't see my R20 message, I WON'T be able to make it tomorrow (or is that today for you?). Too much to do on Sunday I didn't manage to do today (yesterday?). And while we are at it, I won't be able to make it next week either. (Dragonmeet and my wife's birthday). The week after, I WILL be there, but the week after that (18th Dec) I won't, I have a date with Zombies and Star Wars that weekend.
