GM:

I'm looking for an assistant DM for help running a two team pbem game. 
While I will present an overall story and framework for you, as well 
as the "primary goal" for your team of players, the manner of day to 
day play will be left entirely up to you. 

I use 2nd ed. Ad&d rules, and do not personally allow kits. You may if 
you so desire. Both teams will begin at 2nd level. 

I am an experienced DM that has run several PBeM games. I have an 
ongoing game that is closing down due to the three main PCs real world 
time-drain. Thus, I'd like to revive an old favorite and re-run it with
a twist. 

Please let me know what other games you have DMed or are DMing. I 
would prefer someone with DM experience, but it is not absolutely
necessary. 

Question: How would you handle the most common DM problems - the 
"disappearing posters" and the "over aggressive/assertive poster"? 

I prefer to use "egroups.com" to facilitate game play. I have built a 
basic website for your team, with all the public information your team 
will start with. I will update the webpage's archives as you indicate, 
and have graphics already for the early plot developments. 

Let me stress, that while I will maintain control of the "overall 
story" -- that is the ongoing world political developments that the 
teams find themselves enmeshed in, you will be in complete control 
over the day to day plot development of your team. All you need do is 
keep your "story" within my framework, thus allowing the two teams, 
who will be unaware of each other, to intersect and possibly to 
conflict or co-operation. 

Such an endevour is one that will require excellent communication and 
co-operation between us to make it work. I will respect your ideas on 
game flow as long as they fall within the basic framework of the 
milieu. I will brief the chosen DM on ALL aspects of the world, 
and will welcome his/her suggestions. 

Together we can do something really special.
