I've got a couple ideas I'd like to run, and I'm looking to get a group together, probably Sundays, for one of them (in the Regency area). Which ever idea gets the most interest I would probably go with.
One, a Pathfinder/3.5 mix. (Basically Pathfinder, but you're allowed to use 3.5 source material IF it hasn't been updated yet, i.e. splatbooks, etc., but I reserve the right to veto any crazy broken crap from 3.5...just don't munchkin and it'll be all good.) It would be set in Forgotten Realms with a lot of Planescape mixed in as you hop through the planes and, yes, Sigil is one of the cities involved. Time-wise, for those of you who've been following FR, the story begins ten years before the death of Mystra and the Spellplague, in the Coldlands of Damara. It's a game I've tried to run with a previous group that never got going, so it's been bouncing around in my head for a while.
The other idea I have is a D20 Modern zombie apocalypse game that eventually becomes a Fallout-style post-apocalypse. This story is fresher in my head, so I'm a bit more excited, if less prepared for it. It starts World War Z style, "survive the madness", wherein the PCs escape to underground shelters...that's more or less the first five levels...once safe, the govt decides to nuke the land to clear out the infection. Unfortunately, while the blasts take out the undead, the radiation does something quite different than killing them. The game continues years later when the heroes venture forth to the wastes at that point.
I haven't GM'd in a while, but I've kept up to date on my reading, so there shouldn't be too many flukes. I am a pretty "go with the flow" guy when it comes to running things, and I try to twist the details of the story to incorporate my players' backstories and such within it.

Regency? Cool. I live like 5 minutes from the mall. I'm not too keen on d20 Modern, but I've had a soft spot for Forgotten Realms ever since Baldur's Gate, and have always loved Planescape. I'd be interested in that game.
The only caveat is that I have another group I play with and our meeting day isn't set (two of the players have really odd work schedules, so we have to set up our game day week by week instead of always meeting on the same day), and if that game happened to fall on a Sunday, I'd be playing that game first.

Well, this isn't a group yet, it's more me trying to GET a group together, so I can see how that would take preferences. Hit me up...
...and I can throw down the details of the FR/PS game. The others interested in this game (on another message board) haven't indicated a preference one way or the other. You can also ask any questions you might have, etc. Since you know the area, I'm assuming you're familiar with Borderlands? I'm thinking of playing there, since they said their game room isn't too busy on Sundays. (I usually like to play at my place, but the wife isn't too keen on letting a bunch of strangers chill at the house, and this would be a new group. After we've gamed a while, could be a different story.)
Decided to settle on the Pathfinder game set in Forgotten Realms with Planescape mixed in. More information available to those who are interested.
