Lord_Bob,
I thank you for your offer of help. Your post led me to believe that you were offering yourself as a last ditch option. I'm short on time and both of the other posters are more experienced with MP. If you want any help getting into MP then I'll be more than happy to advise. Just not till after Thursday.
Anytime in the future that YOU need a sub, I'll help out as long as I'm available and not already in the same game. I've had enough experience with "leet" gamers in other games. I'm not going to pull the same snobby attitude.

p.s. Im trying to get a rl friend to take my turns, but I haven't heard back yet. If he can do it, then I can talk him through my turns over the phone. In that case, I'll let you guys know ASAP. Also, I may end up being able to access the web where I'm going, so it'll be moot anyway.
