GTA stole a good sized chunk of my brain.

Send help.

Lost his net connection you say?
Hmm...
Well that sucks. Going on IRC's probably a bit useless then.
<edit>Except he just posted that. Eh, going on IRC anyway.</edit>

No, it's back now. Just lost it for a couple of days.

Paging Orion, phact, and KKB. Orion, phact, and KKB, please pick up a courtesy phone.

No worries. I'll try and get them tomorrow.

Unless Earthlink craps out on me again.

That's called the "sun".

Your sun burns us!

Anyway, I should be on IRC for most of the day, unless I wrest the TV away from Kat and get mesmerized by San Andreas again. If y'all want to skip the regular #keenspace chatter, you can come over to #rotd instead, where I shall be lying in wait, ready to pounce and suck out your brains . . .

Good news, chumps.
Thanks to school finishing for me, I'm now available to play basically any morning of the week.
Daylight savings also kicked in today, so I'm GMT+11.
Which means my times now are:

Any day of the week, GMT 10:00pm onwards.
Which, for you EST-ers (aka GMT-5) that's 5pm! Then onwards to... yeah, whenever.

So, pick it as 5pm - 3am EST, any night. My old times still stand, too, I just don't have uni to worry about.

Okay, well I've got my character made, I assume most of you guys have too. I think we've lost KKB, haven't seen a post from her for a while.

Now we just have to set a date for the first game.

Jim North · Post by **Jim North** » Mon Nov 01, 2004 8:07 pm

KKB's the only one left . . . if she's still playing, of course.

We'll figure on a date once I actually have enough of the campaign set up that we can start running it.

Orion · Post by **Orion** » Mon Nov 01, 2004 9:56 pm

quick question: is this going to be basically a long adventure or will it be a full-on campaign. I mainly ask because I want to know how much of a future I need to plan on my character, if we won't be gaining more than one or two levels then I certainly don't have to start planning for potential prestige classes.

Jim North · Post by **Jim North** » Mon Nov 01, 2004 10:04 pm

My games tend to start off with simple, one-shot adventures that somehow mutate into massive long-term campaigns. The group I'm running in real life now started off busting up a gang of ne'er-do-wells in a pretty standard adventure . . . but then it later turned out (ie, I decided after the session was over) that they were backed by a powerful kingdom on the other side of the closest mountain range, and they were secretly starting up a ginormous army of undead to wipe out their enemies, but they're really just the tools of a powerful demon and a rival devil, but they in turn are being used by and so on and so forth and so on.

So the answer is that it can be either one y'all want it to be. If y'all decide one or two sessions is enough, then I'll just take all the weird connective string and plotlines I came up with during those sessions and cry myself to sleep in the corner because those ideas will never come to fruition.

Orion · Post by **Orion** » Mon Nov 01, 2004 10:14 pm

sweet, personally I'd prefer a long-term game, but we'll see how it goes.

Friend · Post by **Friend** » Thu Nov 04, 2004 10:58 pm

*shrugs* Long term, short term, whatever. It's all cool by me.

Also, what's going on? How goes the campaign, Jim? Is KKB playing?

Jim North · Post by **Jim North** » Fri Nov 05, 2004 11:51 am

Apparently KKB has slipped under the radar again, so I'm just going to go ahead and start working on the first session sometime later today. I'm job hunting right at the moment, tho' . . . but hopefully I'll have something ready within the next week.

I just e-mailed her, so we should have some answer on whether she's in or out.

tight. actually I don't mind short or long. though long would would stretch out the fun, which ever you are more comfortable with.
