Seeking Co-GMs
It would seem that I have inherited a PbP forum, and I am now looking to gather enough GMs to actually start a game. The scenario under development was a conspiracy filled rice-buy in Unicorn Lands - but if there's an interest, I'm thinking of revamping it into a historical game set in Scorpion lands in the year 827. For those of you who don't feel like looking it up that means - The Unicorn are still regarded as barbarians - The Scorpion have convinced the empire that they're not a threat - The Dark Moto are about to attack for the first time - The Shimizu are about to be repelled from Ikoma Lands - The Lion and Crane are about to go to war - Iuchi Nagol is busy studying blood magic - Agasha Kitsuki is still busy populating a Family In other words, its a time when everyone needs allies, several people have something to hide, no one is worried about the Scorpion, and they are in a position to come to anyone's (but not everyone's) help.

Re: Seeking Co-GMs
I may be interested in helping, but I'd need to know more of how such a game is managed (mechanically speaking). I've played strictly literary RPGs (no stats, no crunch whatsoever, almost like cooperative novel-writing on a forum), and I've played online versions of traditionally pencil & paper games (using AIM chat and its dice-rolling feature). Would the forum have any sort of crunch? Or would it be purely fluff? Also, how much investment of time would you require? I've been stuck in part-time positions for a while, which has had the benefit of providing me with more free time for gaming. But I could really use more income, so I hope to get a full-time job soon. It wouldn't prevent me from participating, but it would restrict my availability somewhat.
