Well, if you don't mind dragging a total n00b along I'm in. I'm flexible on the time, but preferably after 7pm central (I don't do GMT, you figure it out and get back to me.....
)
Anyway, the most D&D I've played was about 10 minutes of Never Winter Nights, I don't know how big a difference there is in the rules and character set up, but in that game I think I set up a healer monk and would like to test drive a similar character if possible. If you would kindly point me to a n00b character creation FAQ/tutorial, and maybe a few Online resources that would help a lot.
Also unless I'm mistaken in games like this communication between players is important right? Well in that case in addition to IRC I think we should set ourselves up with "Comms" that allow live talking between people. All you need is a mike and speakers, I can run(but not host) Comms and Mechwarrior 4 over a 56K dialup connection and can still hear people just fine.

^ those are the 2 most used in the MW community, I prefer and reccomend TS2 since it's easier on a Dialup connection.
