I am beginning an AD&D campaign and am looking for seven players/characters.
I will accept characters for about one week, and make my decision at that
time.  The game will gear towards actual roleplaying, and less die roll
action.  To generate your character, use the following system.  You will
have 78 points to distribute among your ability scores (I will roll for
exceptional strength where it applies).  Racial ability restrictions will
apply (if I see any charismas of 3 forget it), and I will use the
exceeding level limits (optional rule) on pg 15 of the DMG.  Characters
can be from the PH, kits from the Complete Fighters (paladins and rangers
cannot select these kits), Wizards, Thieves, Psionicists, Bards, or
Rangers Handbooks, The Tome of Magic, and speciality priests from the FR
hardback.  No multiclassed kits are allowed, and alignments are restricted to
LN, LG, NG, CG, and True Neutral.  The proficiency system is used, as are
most of the optional rules from the various books.  Your starting funds
will be the maximum per die -1.  For example, if you are to have 3d6x10 gp,
you will have 3x5x10=150 gp.  Also, your character will start with maximum
hit points.   Characters will begin with 1 weeks rations (10 days), a
spell book if appropriate, and whatever character kits specify.  I will
determine what is in your spellbook after selection of characters.
Adventures will take place pretty equally indoors, in the wilderness, on
the seas, and in cities, so any character class/kit is appropriate.  Send
me important stats that are decided by you (ability scores, proficiences,
equipment, etc.) along with a description of your character and background
information.  A player can send me any number of characters; however, you
will, of course, only have one selected.  Also send each character
separately (it's more convenient for me to print and select).  That should
be all.  I like diversity, so start creating and sending.  Also begin
postings with "D&D:" so I can keep track of things.

**NOTE**  New additions:

-Players should be able to respond every other day

-Players should have no more than 2 skills at 18 or higher.  Please
   balance your character--don't try to max ability scores for ultra
   characters, realistic or thought out characters will be selected

-I will allow races and kits from The Book of Humaniods (however, only
   one, if any, humanoid characters from this book will be accepted)

-I would like to have one type of each character class( or subclass or
   kits representing the character class), a warrior, a priest, a mage, a
   rogue, and a psionicist.  The remaining two will be picked from what I
   feel is appropriate.
