Traveller PBEM

I've been roleplaying for 20 years, and though I have purchased MegaTraveller, Traveller 2300 and The New Era, I have never actually refereed or played in a game of traveller. Always got into the fantasy side of things.

Now I am trying to change that, so am going to purchase Traveller 20 as soon as I am able.

Just to get myself in the mood, anybody know of any Traveller PBEM games that I might have a look at, to get into the swing of things?
 
Go look in the Recruitment board. There is a thread about openings in a PBEM game. I play in that game, and it's a lot of fun. But we've had three players drop out, and need to replace them.

This is my first experience with PBEM, and it's been loads of fun so far.

Just curious...

About how much time does it require per day? 10 mins, 2h?

It depends. Assuming a GM post every other day or so, being a GM in a PBEM probably takes an hour or so every other day (something to do during lunch). Being a player probably takes 5-15 minutes a day (or every other day), depending on your verbosity.

Yeah, 10-15 minutes a day is about right. Some days a little more, if several people add new posts and you have to catch up on all of them. I'd say never more than 30 min., though.
 
Hum... Interesting...

I just *MIGHT* try to get into one then ;)
(My GF wouldn't have been happy if I did and required 1-2h/day)
