Zardoz and I are on the same page.

I also have no preference for days or time..i can schedule around most play dates.

lets just get a consensus.

I 'm sorry , but i am not familiar with mic chat software at all. can't help

what a loser...

 

[Ftr]

turns out SKYPE can only conference call 5 people at a time.

Any other ideas?

Glittercom sounds promising....keeping track of 1 npc will be fine even on the fly.....you say it has a dice roller....THAT I like!
As for mic software...for those who want it....Teamspeak was originally for videogames but it works just fine as a mic system....I LDC with my friends using Teamspeak every night...when not mashing it up in battlefield 2142....TS can take as many players as you throw at it.
Its small...free.....quick download....easy interface...when I was a noob I figured it out in 3 minutes flat.
You can password it and keep the loonies out....even just leave it as an open room for questions during sessions.
Its better than a phone...cause its free.

I am not too familiar with much in the way of chat software. I was not aware of the skype conference call limit.

Teamspeak sounds fine to me.

IVE GOT IT!!!!

DIMDIM.COM

it is a free web conferencing tool, web based and free for groups of under 20.

it has voice, whiteboard, and all that crap. each of us just signs up, one of us sets up a session, and we all log in at dimdim.com and have fun.

 

[Eryiedes]

So...nothing in stone yet but so far I see:

Glittercom...we get mapping and resolve our own die rolls

Teamspeak room to be put up for game sessions...we will choose a country and we will agree on a room name and password.

What weekend day.....and what times are we good at?

DIMDIM.COM
.

Checking it now

I could go for dimdim as long as I don't need a cam for it right?

 

[Lord Zardoz]

Sounds like a winner to me. Do we want to give it a test run tonight or tomorrow?

Before just blurting out a few times.....do any of you aside from Teryn also have children to consider?
By this I mean: If I suggest we start a 5pm or 4 pm and run till near 10 pm...one of us would be able to play for at least a few hours....9pm est is like 2am where he is.
If we could start at a dinner hourish time he could be a part regularly.
Hense the how many jave to worry about kids question...can't very well cut into their dinner prep time.

I will try dimdim in just a few minutes....just getting caught up on page refresh.
We could try it out tonight.
(Plus i need to walk puppy....will take me a few minutes only)

Oh, sounds nerdy but how about friday or saturday 4-5 est till 10ish...perhaps later for the rest of us if we have a green light from our friend across the pond to us his pc en absentia...perhaps more as holidays permit....but I am flexible.
