Seeking new players for a one-shot online D&D 4th Edition game

[OnlineDM]

Over on my blog, a commenter expressed interest in learning to play RPGs via an online game. Since that's kind of what I do, I'm very interested in answering the call to run a game and teach new people to play. I'd love to do a campaign, but I've got too many of those going already, so let's just do a one-shot game and take it from there.

Ideally, I'd love to run a game for all-new players. I'm guessing it won't be easy to find new players online, but it's worth a shot! So, if you're interested in a one-shot game of Dungeons and Dragons 4th Edition (since that's the game I know), please reply here, reply on my blog, send me an EN World message, or send me an email at onlinedungeonmaster@gmail.com.

Once I have four or five players, we'll talk about scheduling the game. We'll play using a free program called MapTool as well as Skype so we can talk to one another. I'll provide all of the details once I have interested players. If you have friends who might be interested, send them my way!

I would be very intrested in playing a 4e game. I am new to DnD and i believe this could be a great way for me to get invloved.

I've done some PBP before but nothing where the rules were too strict (it was more freeform) and have never played 4e but am very interested in trying an online game out.

[MENTION=6677293]jakem5506[/MENTION] and [MENTION=6677300]Tunos[/MENTION] - you're in! Send me an email at onlinedungeonmaster@gmail.com with your info and we'll go from there. It looks like we've got at least three players so far - excellent! We might be able to try this one-shot game sooner rather than later!

I'd love to also been involved in a maptools game as I've never done one before. I am UK based though, so it's worth working out if the hours would be incompatible

[MENTION=83060]RavenBlackthorne[/MENTION]: I'm trying to reach out to new players with this game, and I gather that you're experienced with 4e already. Nothing personal, I promise! But I'm going to try to include newbies only for this one-shot.

No offense taken! I wish you the best of luck. I do a similar thing in the flesh and I now have a group of 3 years! Enjoy.

FYI, we still have a little room in this game. I have four players signed up and would love a fifth. Also, it's getting tough to get everyone's schedules to match up so far...
