I unfortunately have to agree, the GM is now posting in his other games, but didn't respond to a PM about this recruitment. *sigh*
Oh well, I'll just add him the list of GMs I avoid on here. Having life interrupt is fine, but if you're posting daily, you should at least be able to post a post saying you can't recruit the game after all.
What if one of us took over as GM? I would do it but I don't have the adventure modules. Anyone interested in doing so?
Plus I'm a newbie to PBP gaming and likely don't know the ideal way to do things (format, coding etc)
That would be great if someone wants to take over... I don't have the modules either and it's a big expense... maybe someone who's an ap subscriber... or maybe we could all pitch in a little via paypal or something to help the gm out?
I am tempted to run, but don't have the book.
That and I would change, I believe, 2 character creation rules;
Rolls -> 25 PB,
and Ban Certain Classes (Occult, Guns, Magus, Summoner) and Races(Locathah, Aquatic Elves, (non-core,non-featured) etc) would go under a review for approval.
But would give time for those effected to change their submission.
I'd even be adding Only 1 piece of 3PP material but I'd need to approve the idea.
I like my rolled stats! lol j/k... They were good, but that's okay... I could live with 25 pt buy easily... though I do like my character's race (aquatic elf)... wouldn't mind being a true dragon though! lol.
Did a quick look at the Adventure path page and noticed War For The Crown, now that would be an interesting AP to run as I prefer APs that balance RP and fighting.
If you are thinking of starting this up again then I would be interested in pitching an idea :)
I would be ok with whatever AP or Module you decide to go with (I haven't played any of them, so I have no bias)

I don't know all the in's and outs with PBP but why don't we change the AP to something someone has and we can run that if it's possible
I'm still checking in on this and would be interested in running something else if no one can run this. I'd obviously have to do a character overhaul if we go with the 'no magus' game, but I'm fine with that.
If someone wants to run something else, they should just start a new recruitment thread. Using an existing one is unlikely to turn out well.
I'll look through my collection and see what I have.
Did a quick look over of my collection and am torn between The Falcon's Hollow Mini-AP, and Shackled City.....
Those both sound very interesting and are not as common on these boards. I think either would be a hit! Would you run Shackled City in Golarion or keep it Greyhawk?

If I ran Shackled City, I would likely convert most setting content to Golarion.

Shackled City is even more rare then the Falcon's Hollow Mini-AP. And most new GMs tend to start with Falcon's Hollow's first module since it is free, short enough to get a feel for GMing, and has numerous expansion/customisation possibilities.
The only down side of it is the need to update parts of to Pathfinder.Shackled City is no longer easily purchasable, requires a ton of updating, since it has numerous NPC blocks, and even NPCs that level up as the party does.
But it also offers some really good RolePlaying areas in the AP.
I thankfully own a hardcover copy of the Shackled City so I can run it.
I would be willing to run Legacy of Fire AP if everyone could put up with a newbie PBP GM
@Darion Holdfast
I would recommend running a module if this is your first time being a PBP GM, as a Full AP is QUITE the commitment especially one from 3.5.
Now there are two mini-APs made by Paizo, one is Falcon's Hollow (3.5), the other is Price of Immortality (PF).
And one micro-AP, Last Baron (3.5)
In fact I recommend playing PBP first before you start GMing PBP as you'll need to learn the PBP standards we generally use on these boards.
@RHMG Animator:I've never even heard of Shackled City but it sounds interesting.
@Darion: I would be interested but I woukd agree that playing in a PBP and/or running a module first would be a good idea. You could always run a level 1 adventure and come up with ways to bring the characters over to the start of the adventure path. They'll be a bit powerful for the first while but thst will ease off.
I'm running Ruins of Azlant, Curse of the Crimson Throne, Hell's Vengeance, Kingmaker (+Emerald Spire), Dead Suns (Starfinder), a Deathwatch Campaign, Rogue Trader and a Dark Heresy game all over various means so need to carefully gauge if I can handle more GMing so appollogies for not throwing my name in for GMing.
All this talk has me thinking about running a new game, so I wanted to see what people would be interested in playing.
Here's the campaigns I have access to:
Plus I have an assortment of other modules I could convert and string together.
Which of these ideas would be more appealing for folks?
I've played and run rotrl, currently playing cotct, wouldn't mind playing hr
Not sure about falcon's hollow, sounds familiar, but IF I've played it, it would have been a long time ago.
season 6 of pfs, played some of them, not all
obviously haven't played your homebrew ;)

I'd be very interested in Curse of the Crimson Throne or Hell's Rebels. Rise of the Runelord I know the basic plot outline from the Pathfinder Adventures card game, but I'd still be up for it. Basically anything on that list except the PFS scenarios. I play PFS in-person regularly and I'd be heavily restricted in what I could do.
For me, that's kind of the point: I'm trying to play-by-post some material that I'm just not getting to in my in-person games.
@RHMG Animator:I've never even heard of Shackled City but it sounds interesting.
....
Shackled City was the First AP, before Rise of the Runelords, and before Savage Tide and before Age of Worms.
Hence the reason why it is both rare, and has many who'd love to be in a game running it.
Having witnessed this phenomenon many times I can tell you all that if you start a recruitment thread, folks will come. Particularly a PF AP, but also other well-loved modules converted to the system. Heck, you can even get traction on non-PF modules using other systems, though they are not a gimme like a PF module is. The real trick is being a faithful GM with faithful players.
I decided between Falcon's Hollow, and Shackled City.
I'll be running Falcon's Hollow, I'll be allow those who were on my last submission list here to get a bonus.
@Vayelan
Rise of the Runelords (which I have run) or any of the other options listed that I would be up for bar the other two Adventure Paths as I am playing in them... three sessions in two years for Hell's Rebels sight
