I've been wanting to start an online role-playing campaign for a few weeks now, but I've had a hard time deciding what medium through which to play. In the past, I've favored play-by-chat to play-by-post, but I'm wondering if play-by-post will do better with folks' busy schedules and different time zones. Also, with all the buzz about role-playing via Google Wave, I thought it might be fun to experiment with running a one-shot, play-by-post game on Wave to see how well it works. So, that's what I'm doing.
If you'd like to participate in the experiment, please email me at ego-at-anglicangeek-dot-com. I already have six interested players, so I'm hoping to gain a few more so I can run two different parties. Each party will vote to determine whether to use Basic/Expert D&D (via Labyrinth Lord), 1e AD&D (via AEC), or 3.5e D&D (via Pathfinder). The adventure will be an investigative, open-ended affair that I would expect to take 8 hours of table time (so, probably 2 or so weeks via play-by-post).
I have Google Wave invitations a-plenty if you aren't already in the Wave beta.
