Jason Tamez just posted the active campaigns list but you might've missed them, and unfortunately I deleted 'em so I can't forward you a copy. Some brief, tentative summaries are below (I'm iffy on details) for running campaigns. General policy is for prospective players to contact GMs for more information, etc. The Sword of Peace, run by Michelle and Boyd Bottorff. "Standard" AD&D. The Bottorffs are in the middle of a move, though, so if you contact them a response might be late. (Boyd, Michelle, I hope you don't mind this explanation.) A quest to retrieve a lost sword for the kingdom of Cantada. There are two players currently and I'm sure another would be welcome. :-) The Bath of Return, run by Stephen Stubbs. Forgotten Realms, AD&D. I'm not sure if this one has room, but you can ask Stephen. :-) Visitors to a bathhouse somewhere (I forget which city--sorry, Stephen!) awoke to find themselves as halflings, among other things. Has been running for, hmm, half a year or so. Sigils of Return, run by Andrew Toth. Drakenwold (custom setting), customized AD&D (new races/classes/adjustments, etc.). Don't know if there's space in this one either, but it can't hurt to ask. There's a lot of background info for this one. Current PCs woke up with most of their memories from their past erased, and with strange sigils/tattoos on their bodies, among other things. Has been running for, hmm, 4 mos. or so. Milk Run, run by Scott Royall. GURPS Star Trek with some house modifications (I'm not too sure about this; I don't follow Trek that closely). A Trek special ops-type team, from what I saw of the teaser. I think there's space in this one, but you'd have to ask Scott. Has been running for a month or thereabouts. The Black Wall, run by me (Yoon Ha Lee) with assistance from Andrew Toth. Qenar and surrounds, custom fantasy Eastern/Western mix. Information, art and move archives can be found at http://www.angelfire.com/scifi/blackwall if you're curious for more details. This one is run nominally AD&D, in practice more freeform. If this one interests you, you can either apply to the waiting list *or* apply with a character designed to "fit in" (and join up with) one of the characters or groups of characters listed on the "updates & status" page if you want a chance of getting in soon. This one's been running for ~8 mos. (Sorry this description's more detailed than the others, but as the GM I actually know more!) The other campaigns have less players, though, so if one of those catches your eye I'd suggest applying to it first. :-) Hope this helps!
