[Interest Check] Anyone interested in an UNKNOWN ARMIES game, either 2nd or 3rd edition?

Edited 1462573262
With the Kickstarter recently wrapping, I figured Unknown Armies might be in the zeitgeist a little bit more than in the past, so I wanted to see if anyone would be curious in playing in that world. I have the 2nd edition book and the 3rd edition gamma rules from the Kickstarter, so if you have access to those that'd obviously be great. I would really like to run this game soon, so if anyone is interested get at me and I'll set up an LFG page. Right now I'm looking to run the game starting on the 24th of May, at 9pm EST. The campaign itself will be every other week, and sessions will probably be around 3 hours, with a break in between.

Huh, I didn't even realize they were doing a new UA thing. I've run a UA one-shot once and a campaign for Unknown Ponies (MLP system based on UA) for about a year, but I've never had the opportunity to be a player. I'd be interested, depending on schedule, and if it's a voice game instead of text-only I could probably get my roommate on-board as well.
Yeah, I'd run a voice game most likely. I haven't decided when exactly I'd run it but it'd probably be Tuesday evenings since I have a free spot then (I run a Feng Shui campaign Monday nights), would that work for you?

Most likely that would work.
Do you have access to the 2nd edition rules? I'm going to write up the LFG listing now so I'll send you the link in a moment.

I've got the 2nd Edition rule book as well as Stratosphere and Postmodern Magic . I've also got  The Ascension of the Magdalene and Unknown Armies One Shots , but those are both adventures, not rule books.
alright cool. Yeah I got most of the 2E books from a Humble Bundle thing so that's cool. We'll run 2E!
UA has always been on my top games to try out , but tough to find a group. I've got most of the 2ed pdf's from the bundle of holding, along with the 3ed gamma rules from the kickstarter. I've yet to fully dig into them, joining a game would be a great reason to do so. I'd would be down for joining if the scheduling line up!
Would Tuesday work for you? We'll be running 2E just for ease since it's easily accesible.
  Hey Dan.  Sounds great.  As you know, Tuesdays are as open for me as you, now ;).  I am in the kickstarter but I also have the older bundle of holding books.  Never played the game, however.  But I have read Tim Powers, so I am all set.  LOL
Awesome! Also I totally realize I forgot to put this in the subject line, but I'm on EST and I'm looking to run around 8pm, every other week. I'm flexible on the time though, so if anyone is looking for an earlier or later game let me know.
5 (my time: PST) is tight, 6 usually works better.  
Alright, 9 works for me too.

I'm Central time, Tuesdays at 8 should work for me (my schedule may be changing in the near future, but that time should still be free even so). I'll check with my roommate tomorrow for his interest in that time slot. He normally gets off work around 3 (very occasionally getting a late shift where he gets off around 10), so most likely the only question is whether the session would go on too late to threaten getting up on time for work the next day.
Updated main post to reflect current schedule. I figure each session will probably take at least 3 hours. Every other week works best for me because it gives me more time to write up detailed campaigns and gives us all a break without overloading ourselves, since UA can be a heavy game and I'm looking to explore and discuss some darker, personal concepts with this story.
The day and time for the game work for me, count me in. I'm eager to see UA in action, it's always seemed a bit daughting in starting and running a game.

As a side note, I'm the author of the UA sheet here on Roll20. If there are any problems or improvements to be made with the sheet we encounter during the game, I'm familiar with the sheet's code and I should be able to update it quickly. I think the current schedule for pull requests has them being processed on Mondays or Tuesdays, so if we encounter a problem or want an enhancement on Tuesday and I address it before Monday, the changes would be available by the following session since we're going with every other week.
Awesome!
