[Poll #1470636]

Just seeing if there actually is any actual interest. No promises at the moment. I'm tending more towards an old school dungeon crawl as the easiet to handle, rather than anything sandboxy. Using a simple ruleset preferably that doesn't require positioning information.* Either on a dying Mars (and possibly even a prehistoric Venus), or the Isle of Loess or Darkmaze Dungeon** (if I can relocate the maps and stuff in my boxes of archived stuff)

* My latest incarnation of D&D is out of the question because it is only have finished and would require the posting of lots of rules).

** Complete with funfair, souvenir booths, Gobbledock's Vegetarian Restaurant ("We Serve Elves"), and faery-floss made with real fairies.</td></tr></table>

Am I allowed to just say "yes!" to everything? :P

You are quite entitld to say yes to everything, but that doesn't particularly help me choose what to run. <grin>

PDQ? All my memory's coming up with is "...Bach?"

Asagwe makes the good point that it's not so much the system, it's what the GM does with it, and how the online thing is structured. The only time the system would make a difference, he says, is if it was FATAL, deadEarth, or Synnibarr.

I... am afraid now.

He, for the record, may not get around to filling out the poll, but would be happy to play with any of the systems you've listed.

(And the only reason I've left two off my own answers is that I don't know enough about them to be confident about them. Given what I know about several of the other systems, this probably should read "I don't know anything about them.")

Also, for the record, I've never played by e-mail/online, and I worry about my ability to respond in a timely fashion. But I like the idea - a lot!
