I am looking for 2-3 more players to run a campaign, likely every other week.  I will be GMing, unless someone else would prefer to run the game.  I am not an expert on the rules, so it wouldn't hurt to have at least one experienced player.  However, the focus will be on role playing and the experiences the characters are going through rather than power gaming, rules lawyering, or constant combat.  We also tend to crack a lot of jokes while we're playing. Either leave a post here or PM me directly and I will arrange for us to speak on Skype to answer any questions and try to determine if we'll be a good fit for each other. For those not familiar with Traveller, here is the basic setting description, from the book: "Traveller is a science fiction roleplaying game of the far future. Humanity has gone to the stars and found them crowded with other forms of life and other sentient races, and science and technology have advanced vastly over the present day – but the essential nature of humanity is unchanged. Life continues as it does today, only spread out over the sea of stars. A mighty Imperium unites thousands of star systems under a single rule, but it is beset by enemies both internal and external. The Imperium commands the space between the stars, ensuring that civilization endures and trade continues. Megacorporations and feudal lords conduct the bulk of this trade, but there will always be a place for the free trader – hardy travellers and adventurers on the fringes of known space, dealing in strange goods and smuggled cargoes, doing whatever they can to make a credit. While the Traveller rules can be used to model almost any science fiction novel, movie or setting, the traditional setting for games is the Third Imperium of Mankind, the third great empire to stretch across the stars. In the Third Imperium setting, the players take on the roles of tramp merchants and mercenaries, wandering the galaxy in search of profit and adventure."
I've got a Mongoose Traveller game I am trying to get going, although I've bought into the alternate Clement Sector setting (it's not too different from "normal" Traveller). I am looking for at least three players on every other Sunday. I'd be glad to talk. 
Will you be using a premade campaing setting an adventures or all sandbox?
If I am the GM, I will be doing a sandbox campaign.  The players will be free to go and do (or at least try to do) whatever they want.  I actually ran a couple of sandbox Stars Without Number campaigns a while back, so I can recycle much of the world building I did for those games.
We still need 1 or 2 more--players new to the system, or even RPGs entirely, are welcome.  We're a fun, low sodium group.  No drama, no pressure, just good times, with a lot of laughs.
Checking one last time for any interest.
I am interested.

I might be interested, I'd like to know a bit more about the campaign but we can cover that in an interview. Btw any GM willing to do interviews pre-game is a great sign imo. I am brand new to the system but I have played and am still playing Stars Without Number, a system that I hear shares a few similarities.  Double Post sorry about that
Sure. PM me your Skype details and we can arrange a time to talk about it soon.
