Heh. I tabletop RP too. The beauty of the mush is that there can be dozens of people on all at once, so you can get the joy of interacting with many different personalities. Also, you can RP(in some form or another) most hours of the day.. a tabletop rp has to be organized. I've gotten little snippets of roleplay in on my lunchbreak at times. Nothing epic, of course, but it keeps you 'regular' and commonly present.

The other fun fact of the mush is large-scale battles. We have just wrapped up a two-point invasion from the Autobots this weekend. In one point Devastator was fighting computron, in a fight involving Rodimus, Scourge, and numerous other bots and cons. In the other, Predaking was defending a weather control spire from an assualt from Elita one, Air Raid, and numerous humans from Earth Defense Command. All in the background, Metroplex was assaulting Trypticon. It turns out there was a Quintesson involvement as well.

I've had Comcast a few months there, but got Mixmaster recently. Constructicon bickering is the best. Hook was being smart to me, so I threw a jar of jam at his head, and we broke down into a fight in front of all the bots and cons (in the aftermath form the big assault). The reason why I happened to be keeping a jar of strawberry jam on me is a long story :)
(conveniently, there are still three characters availale if someone wants to join in on the Constructi-fun ;). You only need three members of a gestalt team to merge, and Hook and I are both New Zealanders, so we can get Devastator available quite regularly if we have a third person from down under apply for one.)

Out of curiosity, what system do you use for tabletop RP?
