Wot ho! Greetings from the Old Country (and some q's and stuff)

Hi, new player to the group here - I've read the How To: Ashlands, (which I'll answer below) and I can see you've a decent length game running.  How does this generally work with setting up games given the numbers you ideally want for a game?  I'm guessing from what I've read of TB you really wouldn't want more than 5+GM else the grind starts happening to the players and not just the characters. I've done the full char gen for my concept, but I'm not going to argue if you like to make sure people don't min-max/horseshit on their first character (which I assume is why pre-gens for first go?) Either way, Hamis [ha-MEEZ] was intended as an unintentional cliche of the halfling burglar sort.  As much as he tries and tries, he just seems more and more like a halfling out of his element (which really irritates him when it's pointed out).  A much better cook than he is a thief, yet his wanderlust calls him to adventure and pilfer from those who won't go hungry should something go missing. Initial thoughts on belief and instinct below, feedback welcome: I've read the book, but haven't played yet so I don't know how well either of these would be to judge in play. Belief: "Nobody should have to starve, poverty be damned." Instinct: "Always have a route out." I'm on GMT btw, so postings may be at odd times for y'all.
Hey Dude, Welcome to the group! I thought up a funny joke about something said but thought it was a bit lame for a first meeting. If for some absurd reason this message has made you want to see it let me know. Eric
I can start a new game, if we get enough player. I prefer 3-4 players. If you made your first character using the book, that's a good start.

I am down for joining a new game
We could take one more but not two if there aren't enough for a second game
Are you looking for more players if so what night?
Gareth is GMT so we kinda need to play on weekends. Gian what about your time zone?
I'm not employed at present so in the short term time isn't a particular issue.  Only fixed time I can't manage is going to be before 10pm GMT on Fridays since I do HEMA then.  Decent chance I'd need to pass out afterwards, depending on bruise levels.

I can do Thursday around 9pm
I'm down for a group 2 if more players are needed. Above time works for me.

Just to double check the conversion, that's Thursday 20:30 EST / Friday 01:30 GMT? Edit: Derp! It says the zulu time on my games page, all good.
EST is GMT-5, yes.
