[LFP][D&D5E] Considering Running B4 - The Lost City (The conversion by Goodman Games; levels 1-7)

Edited 1636678366
I just picked up the Goodman Games conversion and expansion of "B4 - The Lost City" and am considering running a campaign on Roll20.  The conversion also takes it from the original Basic Ruleset to D&D5e and expands the adventure considerably.  The original adventure was published in 1982 and only covered levels 1-3.    Checking here to see if there might be any interest in participating.   The Campaign would probably start around mid-Dec or Jan.  This conversion takes players from level 1-7.  This would be a free campaign.     Drop a note if there is interest in playing. [FREE]
Would be interested depending on day and time. 
Ok, will keep you posted.  I'm in the US (CST) and thinking it would probably be a Tuesday or Sunday night around 7pm cst, but can be flexible on other days and times.  
I'm interested in joining as Tuesdays or Sundays at 7pm can work for me. (It would be 8pm my time) Preferably, I would rather have it at Saturdays. My only deal breaker is if it's text only or not.
I use Discord for audio.  I'm playing in a game Saturday nights right now, so that day probably wont work for me.   I'll keep you informed as it develops - As the adventures is only available in a bound book, I'm building out the digital aspects of the campaign now (Maps, handouts, ...) which takes a little time.  Here's an example:
Hey there, Will! Holy shit.  I think I last played Lost City when I was in grade school in the early/mid 80’s!  I’m intrigued to know more- and Tuesdays at 7 (I’m on Eastern) is doable! I’m  Matt C#8532  on Discord.  Let’s chat!
I'd be interested depending on the day and time.
I've also just picked up Goodman Games B1: In Search of the Unknown and B2: The Keep on the Borderlands (Caves of Chaos)  redesigned conversion module for 5e.  B2: Keep on the Borderlands would be an easier/faster conversion.  We could do B2 (levels 1-3) first, and if that went well, could follow it up with B4: The Lost City (levels 1-7).  Any preferences or thoughts?
Matt: I'm madcar_1#8905 on Discord - I just sent you a friend request. Matt C said: Hey there, Will!

I suggest what you feel is fun, You will be living with it for a while. I've had groups fail because the players picked and the DM didn't enjoy it. 
I'm very interested. Tuesday or Saturday work for me

Awesome - Give me a few weeks to build the first half of the campaign on Roll20 and I'll setup a game.  I'm still shooting for Mid-Dec for Session 0, and starting the campaign in full after Christmas.  I'm putting my efforts right now at building out B2: The Keep on the Borderlands and B1: In Search of the Unknown based on the conversion (over 382 pages) done by Chris Doyle and Tim Wadzinski of Goodman Games. Right now I've got the following interested: Syd Rowe Matt C Crit Happens Airen Scott K. Warren J. My tools: Roll20 as VTT/Music  Discord for Text and Audio       Option:  I've got a MeetingsToGo acount which is a pretty nice VidConf tool if there is any interest in video D&D Beyond for character generation and management - I've got a master account which lets me share my digital manuals LegendKeeper.com for tracking Campaign Notes (May be overkill for this adventure).   My style:  I'm not always a stickler for the rules as I believe the mechanics can sometimes get in the way of creative fun play.  If you want to try something, and the rules are vague or what you want to do is crazy fun, I may have you do a quick roll based on the context of the situation.  Succeed or fail, the result should be awesome. I probably fall on the 50/50 side of role play vs. roll play. I appreciate an inclusive and diverse group and don't like the PVP play style.
I would be interested in running this classic
I've sent a private message to each of you with a link to the game and my Discord user nick.  Really looking forward to running this campaign.  Goodman Games did more than a conversion, they added a lot more content.  I really appreciate the work they put into it.   I'm about two thirds way through porting the campaign from the book to Roll20 and LegendKeeper.com (my campaign wiki/notes tool).  I've still got about 20 unique NPCs to build in Roll20 and about a dozen Maps to develop.
