Just ask. Start by listing the Game settings (Turns/MBBS/etc etc)

Best bet is to ask specific people on ICQ first. Try some of the people you just corped with in TCW for example.

Get someone with great scripts to help you out and learn what you can bout the scripts.
Or.. find an abandoned game and become ruler of the galaxy!!

LOL, all reliable are corped already, Dont tell them you have cash,
or somthing to give, trust me on this. you just have to play a few hundred games and get to know players. and even then thay wont help
you. all you can do is ask and hope you get a bite!

Kemper had it right, start with the people you teamed with on Corp Wars. ICQ people you know and ask them if they are up for a new game.

Here are some other hints to get people (generally) to play with you in games.

Be nice
Be courteous
Have a sense of humor
Don't take the game too seriously
Be a good teammate
Be a decent human
Don't freak out when things start to go badly in a game
Don't play the blame game when you lose
Be interesting
Have fun
