Same here though I think the commute might make that a little improbable. I used to have the same issue, no one else wanted to GM until I finally managed to convince one of my players to take over. Now he's looking for someone to take over for him. Never ending problem; everyone wants to play and no one wants to GM.

I will make a Forever GM PbP game, don't tempt me...

Forever GMs, people who don't get to play: vote, what genre, (para)military, mercs, BT espionage, PM espionage ... wait no, no James Bonding. Masterpiece Mystery stylings, Gumshoe Noir, ... Sky pirates, Hacker core... what?

Dude, I follow a few simple rules;

1: He who GMs picks the setting, lays out the character ground rules, etc
2: He who chooses to play, follows the GMs ground rules.
3: I don't play PbP :D

Hey have fun!!!!!
Where am I going? And why am I in a hand basket ???

Have you considered Google hangouts to run a game? I know scheduling can be a pain but it gives a more immediate feel and lets you interact with people in real time.
A game for GMs sounds like it would be ... interesting. Seeing how many of us can keep our big mouths shut about 'that's not how I'd do it...grumble grumble". It can be really hard to let go of the reins at let someone else be GM sometimes. Not that I'm speaking from personal experience or anything  ;)

I've tried pbp SR.  It always falls down in the ops planning stages.  Not enough mohawk.

Scheduling prevents me from doing anything real time right now, but I'm active enough on the forum that I can guarantee it won't be too slow moving.

I've been posting on my phone, but I'd have to be home to make a character.

Done Skype games and that works reasonably well....

PbP just seems to get a little crazy and garbled for me...

But I freely admit that it works for some people!

I use Daisybox instead of chummer.  Cuts down on the infodump of all the skills I'm not using.

Daisybox is hugely out of date unfortunately. You can sort your skills in Chummer by what you've invested your points in.
