Looking for a D&D 3.5 game

Hello! I'm an experienced 3.5 DM looking for a game I can finally be a player in (DMing all the time can burn a guy out, ya know?). Below is a list of characters I have available to play with, along with the expected Tier of power they fall into. If none of these characters are acceptable, I can create one to fill a needed party role.

==Tier Descriptions included for your convenience==
Tier 1: Capable of doing absolutely everything, often better than classes that specialize in that thing. Often capable of solving encounters with a single ability.
Characters:
• An Illusionist (Notable ability: At high levels his illusions hurt more when disbelieved as they have shadowstuff backing them up and the enemy let down their guard when they saw it was "just" illusion)
• An Artificer (Specializes in golem construction and wields a magic Battlefist)

Tier 2: Has as much raw power as the Tier 1 classes, but can't pull off nearly as many tricks due to a lack of flexibility.
• An Undead "Channeler" (Build varies, but generally focused on overcharging abilities at the cost of his HP)

Tier 3: Capable of doing one thing quite well, while still being useful when that one thing is inappropriate, or capable of doing all things, but not as well as classes that specialize in that area.
• A Factotum (Jack of all trades, with a focus on assassination using a quickrazor)
• A Bard (Focused on buffing the party with songs)

Tier 4: Capable of doing one thing quite well, but often useless when encounters require other areas of expertise, or capable of doing many things to a reasonable degree of competance without truly shining.
• A Truenamer (An alternate caster that I adore for the flavor but generally sucks at everything)
• A Psionic Monk (Tons of attacks, insane movement speed, not useful for much else)

Note: My characters generally pull from a large amount of books, as I like to customize every detail of my character. This also allows me to scale up/down my characters according to party/campaign balance. I am fully capable of playing a Tier 1 character as if it was Tier 3 by customizing accordingly. I have no intention of "sneaking one past you" to bring a disruptive PC into the game.

My first choice of characters would be my Artificer, as it allows me to fiddle around with the character during downtime between sessions (providing you allow the use of Craft Points from Unearthed Arcana, which greatly reduce bookwork and time wasted for both player and character)

My personal houserule preferences are the E6 system (especially if gestalted with Oslecamo's Improved Monster Classes, a very well made homebrew compendium over on the MinMax boards.), The Vitality/Wound hitpoint variant in Unearthed Arcana, and the Armor as DR variant in the same book.

If you want to play in person, I live in the East Bay Area, California. If you want to play online, just message me and I'll clear the appropriate timeslot in my schedule.

Happy Gaming!

    Welcome to the portal. I suggest you try "How to find a Game":http://forums.obsidianportal.com/comments.php?DiscussionID=1527&page=1 . This has links to a number of suggestions, including pen and paper games. I have found players for my game at pen and paper myself.
