[@Idea]Unless there's a lot of people who don't want to see unearthed arcana, I'd say it's all fair game. And yes I'll take ya for sure as long as youre okay with a noob being the gm lol.

[@Marki] Then I guess we are going with idea 3!

Noob or not, as long as the GM is aiming to make things fun and engaging with the player's content it should be fine XD

Also fine with going with idea 3! Personally I liked that one and idea number 1 as well.

 but I wanted to tag everyone that seems to want to play to also ask if everyone doesn't mind seeing any material used for character building.

I'm fine with official content, UA and even homebrew. Even if I don't homebrew I often like at least reskinning some content (AKA keeping it mechanically identical but changing the lore or what the mechanics are referring to in-universe.)

So currently my questions at the moment would be what should we be aware about for character creation (mainly the level, as the question of the source we can use has been answered) and what should we expect of the setting of idea 3 could help with character creation?

I will second these questions, and would like to add a few:
> Will we be using milestones or XP to gain levels?
> If we choose the starting items option rather than rolling for gold, are we allowed to sell items we don't want and buy items?
> While they are from official content, it was brought to my attention that the backgrounds from Guildmaster's Guide to Ravnica are a little controversial because they add spells to your spell list (in other words, they expand the number of spells you can pick from for any given class). Would these be allowed or banned in the group?
> What is the policy regarding stats? Can we pick between point buy and rolling for stats or are we limited to one or the other?

 But know our each other's backstory could be helpful as perhaps it could help probably build some prior connection a two or more characters before or when they started working with the guild.

I am absolutely the type who loves to make character connections in the backstory, it can really bring some interesting dynamics to the table.
