Eclipse Phase- Online Game

MyDcmbr

So does anyone know of a running Eclipse Phase game being done over the net? I am dying to play this game, but the only local one going is on a night when I am unavailable due to work.

Thanks in advance.

Wildcat

Rend was running one, but it kinda died. You could try to poke him to revive it - I'd certainly join in.

Solar

No, but if you find one then I'd like to know about it to, as I'm running a game for my group in RL right now and I'd dearly love to actually play.

EDIT: Wildcat your taste is, as ever, impeccable.

I thought the title was going to be a declarative statement, not a question.

Drat! I don't know of any online games either.

This thread seems to indicate someone is (was?) running a game over Google Wave, and a couple of games were happening at rpol.net.

I would love it if someone ran one. I tried to run one once but I didn't have the time.

I went to PAX Prime and tried this system out. It was awesome. We had an Octomorph who blew up a ship so we could steal a nanobot weapon from a black market dealer and then one player betrayed us and I got to snap his neck before an Asteroid crashed into us and we died. And I hear this is about average in this game. Plus my GM was Brian Cross, the co-creator of the game, which made it so much sweeter. I bought the core book and he signed it.

Interesting fact: The Core Book is under the Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike 3.0 Unported License which means that it's free to copy, share, remix the text artworks, ect. as long as you don't make money off it, attribute Posthuman Studios, and license any changes you make with the same license. Brian told me they did this so they could torrent the core book and get word out about the game. As far as I know, that's all they are allowing torrenting. I was kinda shocked about this.

If you are looking for a game, Brian also told me about Infrno which is like Facebook, Skype, and Maptools all put together for running games. I've been surfing the site and it's pretty awesome. There seems to be an open game for next Sunday that's going to be ran by Brian Cross.

Yeah, Brian Cross is a game developer I respect, the creative commons thing really sold me on the game, and I adore my glossy hardcover that sits on my shelf and never gets played because it's too damn thick for my lazy players to read.

I'd like to note that I have a thread over here for discussion of the game:

http://forums.penny-arcade.com/showthread.php?t=99171 but it's a bit old so there's no need to resurrect it, but I really did put a lot of work into that OP.

I played at PAX as well. I had read through the setting information on a pdf, but actually playing it and listening to one of the developers talk about it just makes me want to play more of it.

Put me down as someone who would be interested in playing if a game gets going. I love me some hard SF, and the thought of playing an enlightened Cephalopod is just too freaking cool.
