Alright, I hijacked this place (with [AT9]'s permission) to advertize and inform people about this.
Anyway, this thread is for people who are interested in joining some games sessions of P&PRPG with me as GM. Most people linked to this thread by me will already know what this is all about, those of you who are here and do not know, hit the spoiler to see:
This time the vote is just about picking the general RPG system and world we want to use/play in. If you are unfamiliar with them I give you some info after the spoiler.

Now onto the voting!
Please, no spam, I want this thread to stay manageable

- Spoiler:
- Since this is a gaming site you will know what an RPG is, right?
Well, Pen&Paper RPGs is where it all started. Not bound by the limits of a video game a handfull of people (players + Game Master) sit together and weave a, hopefully thrilling, fantasy. To resolve combat and other situations a specific ruleset native to every RPG is used. Character creation is similar to CRPGs, but more in-depth.
Our game will be played over the Internet, using an IRC channel and some other tools. You, as players, only need your computer and interest.
If you are interested now, you may make a post in here to show it and then you may vote on the poll. Please, do not vote "just because". Only vote if you have serious interest in joining our group.
Should you have further questions either hit me with a PM, talk to me in the Cbox or contact me on MSN (saibot01@yahoo.de)
This time the vote is just about picking the general RPG system and world we want to use/play in. If you are unfamiliar with them I give you some info after the spoiler.
Info about the Warhammer 40K RPG:
- Spoiler:
As the name implies this RPG takes place in the wider world of Warhammer 40.000
The world of 40K is a war-torn, dystopic future. Most of the known galaxy is controlled by the Imperium, the largest human Empire ever conceived. The Imperium is largely a theocratic feudal federation, controlled from Holy Terra. Where the Immortal Emperor, now ascended to godlike status (or at least that is what the Imperial Church teaches) rests on the Golden Throne, not dead nor truly alive. Humanity is not alone, however, the Imperium and mankind are threatened at every turn by aliens, heretics or the foul denizens of the warp, a nightmarish parallel dimension that we might compare to Hell itself. Humanity must be harsh to survive in an even harsher world.
But let us here out what the game itself says:
It is the 41st Millennium. For more than a
hundred centuries the Emperor has sat immobile on the Golden Throne of
Earth. He is the Master of mankind by the will of the gods, and master
of a million worlds by the might of his inexhaustible armies. He is a
rotting carcass writhing invisibly with power from the Dark Age of
Technology. He is the Carrion Lord of the Imperium for whom a thousand
souls are sacrificed every day, so that he may never truly die.
Yet even in his deathless state,
the Emperor continues his eternal vigilance. Mighty battlefleets cross
the daemon-infested miasma of the warp, the only route between distant
stars, their way lit by the Astronomican, the psychic manifestation of
the Emperor's will. Vast armies give battle in his name on uncounted
worlds. Greatest amongst his soldiers are the Adeptus Astartes, the
Space Marines, bio-engineered super-warriors. Their comrades in arms are
legion: the Imperial Guard and countless planetary defence forces, the
ever vigilant Inquisition and the tech-priests of the Adeptus Mechanicus
to name only a few. But for all their multitudes, they are barely
enough to hold off the ever-present threat from aliens, heretics,
mutants - and worse.
To be a man in such times is to be
one amongst untold billions. It is to live in the cruelest and most
bloody regime imaginable. These are the tales of those times. Forget the
power of technology and science, for so much has been forgotten, never
to be re-learned. Forget the promise of progress and understanding, for
in the grim dark future there is only war. There is no peace amongst the
stars, only an eternity of carnage and slaughter, and the laughter of
thirsting gods.
Info about the World of Darkness
- Spoiler:
- The WoD is our world viewed through a dark mirror. Everything is a little grimmer, everything is a little dirtier, corruption and pollution are higher, man is a little more spiteful to his fellow people, wars and crimes are bloodier and everything is just that more hopeless. And the supernatural exists.
In WoD RPGs the players can take both the roles of normal humans in this dark world or one of the supernatural beings, stalking the night. From Vampires over Mages to Werewolves, all have their place in the WoD.
Now onto the voting!

[It should be noted for those considering this, that you would need to devote a fair amount of time to this, which is why it's aimed to be played this summer, while most of you are on break from schooling. If you don't have any time to devote to this, it would be best not to participate]

I'm fine with either one. I still have my old character sheet for 40k. 
Also, I will be free every Saturday, and one to two days during the week. I should be able to make it most times.

[World of Darkness won by a landslide; all four votes! Please note, due to some not-so-great ideas of mine, I was fucking with the settings for this poll and that is why it reads zero votes and negative 1 votes. That is my bad. Feel free to stone me]
