OMG....I havent ever thought of this..GREAT IDEA!!
I haven't played in a long arse time...usually play pc RPGs and sum TFC..but man I would bust out my old books for this...used to have sum major experience DMin'..and have ran many large campains such as Waterdeep, Ravenloft, Greyhawk, Vault of the Drow, Queen of the Demonweb Pits, Dragonlance and several FR settings...ahhh brings back old memories
I think I even still have sum Warhammer stuff.../me checks...yep, 40k and Realm of Chaos...wo0t wo0t now that's sum fun
my suggestion for doing an online chat session...scrap the AIM...use mIRC..it's way better and perfect for this...goto
www.mIRC.com and then come find me on gamesnet #-SoD- <----TFC clan but i'm often there and would be stoked to show anyone how to use irc chat and why it's perfect for this and I do mean PERFECT! Who knows...maybe I could play a game or two.../me thinks...89-90 was last time I played so I'm rusty for sure....anyways drop by irc and chat
BTW..I read back and see that Fogwraith has an irc script for dice rollin using a bot...THAT MAKES IT ALL THE MORE PERFECT...if he can't be found I know it could be worked out fairly easily.....the possiblities with irc are endless here...peeps from all round the world playing in games, multiple rooms with multiple campains, locked games, clan and guild settings and compitions...on and on...The rooms are set up with a personal host for each room and the owner (DM) would have total control of the room. This will limit spam and bring order to the game in a chaotic situation..and on and on. I'm totally serious bout helping with irc and this could really breath life back into AD&D for many of us...
