Ya more or less, I have been filling kinda burn out on dming and have a mess of pc I have been wanting use in some form. I figure I could fimd a like mind some where so we could shot ideas at each other. We could take turns on short adventures so one person could test pc builds and the other home rules and puzzles out side of our games .
I hope that makes more senses

PC's built for one on play won't be built the same way they will for a party since they will have to be more self sufficient.
It would be easier to come up with scenarios, and have certain board members make characters to participate.
PS:Some house rules can be taken care of before even being played. Someone came up with the idea of a caster being able to cast spells based on BAB. I quickly showed him who I could force 4 or more saves per round to more than one party member, most likely leading to a party wipe.
PS2:Your groups playstyle should also be noted with your houserules. What works in one group or with a certain subset of people won't work for another group.

I noticed your post called for a pbp but your looking to use maptools which usually indicated a live game. Just curious how you are looking to have this run.
I brought up maptools in case the other person used it ,I really have no idea how to use it and was hoping to learn. But it is a resource I now have.

To point one: I understand this but I really don't mind. I have been stuck as the dm sent I found pathfinder some time after the first print of the core rule book and have been wanting to be on the player side of the bord ,but due to my job and that I live and Germany I have a hard time getting in to and being able to play normal pbp. I thought a one on one would work better.
To point two : this is my line of thought but some things I would like to see in game like I have toyed with the thought of removing the confirming roll on crits,like when you crit on a skill check
To point three : your right I play mostly by the raw but will deviate based on my grope but I don't have any good examples, other then I require you use food wile you rest in order tpo regain health.( but that is a pretty bad example,sent I only did that for one game ) over all I want to inprove my game so saying how I currently run my game when I want to tweek seems funny at this point
But thank you for your input
