All Chicagonites!
I'm moving to the Chicago area and would love to get into a good gaming group or to even form a group. I've been DMing for 10 years but really would prefer to be a player.
I enjoy a mixture of role playing and action as well and would love to chat with some people to get something set up before I come.
I"m moving to somewhere relatively near downtown (but will have a car) in June. I'll subscribe to this but please contact me vie email, cell, aol, etc.

First, I would like to thank everyone who replied to me. I am pleased with the responses I received from everyone. It seems Chicago has no shortage of good gamers.
I am going to be joining Mark's group at GamesPlus, and play every other week. However, I am interested in setting up a group of my own and a homebrew down the road in a few months. (I have a few ideas, and a fair amount of work to do.)
It seems a fair number of us are looking for players and groups in the Chicago area? Would an EN World Gamer-DM Meetup day be a good idea?

As I've mentioned in my own "Gamer seeking Gamers" thread (in my sig), I too live in Chicago (downtown, not suburbs) and am seeking a group. I have no car, and thus am confined to public transportation or the generosity of group members. While Orland Park and Batavia are too far to be reasonable, the CTA actually does connect to at least one location in Summit that I could find (63rd and Harlem). It'd probably take me about an hour or so door to door, but I can live with that if the game is on a weekend.

Enforcer,
I can give you much better directions.(Personally, I would take the Orange Line to either the Pulaski or Midway stops. At Pulaski, take the 62 Archer to Harlem Avenue. At Midway, take the northbound Cicero bus to Archer and then the 62 Archer bus to Harlem. EN World -- the site for public transportation advice.
) However, I am still working on firming up a campaign setting. This will likely take a few months. However, Games Plus is accessible via the Metra line from downtown. (It is right across from the Mount Prospect stop.)

I live about 15 min from Games Plus (great store!) and actually just started playing there every Tues. night with one group. I'm also in another group that plays every other weekend (rotating through various suburban locations) that I met through DnD meetup.
If anyone is interested, there are Meetups tomorrow at 4pm. I'll be at the NorthSuburbanChicago one at Borders in Gurnee (about a 30 min drive north from Games Plus on 294), but there are others (one in the city). Generally this is just a way for gamers to meet other gamers, hook up with existing groups, and form new groups (as we did in Jan).
I'm always interested in meeting new gamers and our "Meetup" group seems very open to adding new players. So if anyone wants to swing by Borders in Gurnee tomorrow at 4pm we should have a nice size group there.
On another note to William Ronald and/or Mark, when are you guys playing on Sundays at Games Plus? I could stop by and introduce myself sometime...

Hi, Zaxaryon:
Mark and I should be there from noon to early evening on Sundays. (I will be there every other Sunday.)
I am glad to see that people are trying to help each other find good gamers. Zaxaryon, if you see this before the meet-up, can you post the other locations for people on the boards.
Hmm, maybe it might be good to have a D&D meetup thread in this forum where people could update where to meet gamers in different towns? After all, many of us are in the same boat -- let's just hope it's not the Titanic, the Marie Celeste, or the Flying Dutchman!

I have some spots available for a new campaign game beginning on the 21st and running every two weeks. More details here, please -
