Looking for a full chat roleplaying game

1. Looking for a full chat roleplaying game

   #1

   I've never been a player, always a DM. Don't like play by posts. So, wanted to check if anyone's interested in DMing a roleplaying game in the full chat, on Fridays, Saturdays or Sundays at around 17:00 GMT (11:00 CST) and onwards. And of course if there are any others out there interested in being players along with moi.

   Just want to add, that I'm open to suggestions regarding the time.

   Anyone up for a little Paranoia?
   
   I might be able to do a Saturday or Sunday game. That would be the easiest for working around timezone differences.

   So we are looking at Saturday 9AM PST (-8)

   Currently -7 with DST. So this would be 4pm GMT/UTC on the 30th.

   Also, don't let inexperience scare you away. So far, none of us have any experience with paranoia(the game). But that won't stop us.

   So... When would that be in Eastern Standard Time? And would it matter if I had no idea of how to play Paranoia (besides the general gist of the game)? If the answer to the first isn't the middle of the night, and the answer to the second involves some variation of 'hop right in,' I'd be up for it.

   Noon and "hop right in"

   Well, beware other PCs. Ye shall rue the day you let the caesar193 infiltrate your group of Troubleshooters (thank god for Wikipedia- the source, so far, of all my technical knowledge of the game), manipulate my companions, and achieve the goals of the Romans!
   
   Not that you should, you know, know any of that. You should probably forget it. Like I would betray you guys. Right? Right? Trust me. It'll make it easier to betray- i mean, complete our objective. :D
   
   So yeah, I'm in. Just I'm case you didn't catch any of that.

    Remember, Citizens, it is impolite to show too much interest in the rules, and potentially treasonous to show knowledge of the rules above your current grade of RED.
    
    Thank you for your continued cooperation.

    Is Wikipedia going to be our only source of info? Will we have a briefing before we start or do we just free ball everything? I know there's probably not a whole lot of stats seeing as any injury will kill you, but it would be nice to have SOME knowledge.

    The Computer is your friend and wishes you to have a long and happy career as a Troubleshooter. As such, and in appreciation for exposing a traitor, the Computer will provide the information necessary to perform your new duties.
    
    If you are experiencing any stress at this time, please see the Happiness Officer for your daily Pharmatherapy dose. The Computer wishes all citizens of Alpha Complex a happy and stress free life. The Computer looks forward to your coming efforts to rid Alpha Complex of traitors, mutants, and subversives.
    
    (I am still working my way through the rules and formulating just how I'm going to run this thing. If you want a head start, I recommend tracking down The Little Red Book; this is not mandatory, however, and you will do fine without it.)

    Started an RP thread (http://strolen.com/guild/index.php/topic,6223.0.html) to hammer out all the necessary details before play starts.
