O HAI! Okay so I have this crazy idea for those of us who have the LOD expansion. I am proposing having a weekly get-together in Diablo II expansion where we start completely from scratch going through all the quests and acts together with brand new characters. And I stress NOT being rushed or anything like that. Just 1 night a week where some of us would get together, start a game, work through the quests and acts and just have a good ol' chit chat mixed with some monster smashing. This is something me and my friends would do when we needed a good Diablo fix. None of us would get ahead of the other, if one person had to leave, we'd leave the remaining quest for the next time, or we'd complete it and help the other guy complete it next time or something. Of course there won't be any such rules but I just thought it would be cool to have a group of characters around the same level, and to see who might want to do this 1 night a week kinda thing. I just loved going through the act where its a struggle the whole way with our lower level characters, but that's what made it fun. I hated when that stupid high level character would come in and be like "Oh I'll help u guys clear through the acts fast" and I was like "nooooo!! don't be a fun-stealer!"
Anyways... I mean I know SC2 is out and all that, but you can spare an hour or two 1 night a week right?

I would be happy to do this but every time I do this with somebody, we never get past the first day it seems. I think we should all share our timezone information.

Well I'm Pacific time, and the only thing holding me back from starting this whole shenanigan is simply installing the CD's. Let's see how many people are actually interested in this and then we can start discussing what time would work best. Glad to see some already are.
Irrational, your idea sounds rational.... now that the bad puns are out of the way, ahem... I have never heard of Ironman until reading your post, and then looking it up on the net. Ironman (or Jaggetnaut?) sounds like a really fun, challenging idea. I'm sort of thinking now that hosting two separate events might not happen due to lack of people, so maybe we could have a vote and see how many people want to do Ironman, and how many just want to have a 1-night weekly casual game. I'm not saying both events can't happen.... but if someone wouldn't mind setting up a post with a vote or something, that'd be cool. I don't know how as I'm still new here.

Also 'crazy; is a requirement for staying in this place.
Same situation as arry here.
Plus I won't be getting my D2 dics before a couple of weeks at least.
Edit- we could also have everyone do an unconventional build. Since we'll be in a group, that ought to be even more fun. Just an idea.

If and when we do this group thing, I will probably be a Magic Arrow/Strafer with some emphasis on Valkyrie.
