All-game post:
Today the veterinarian told me, unexpectedly, that I will have to euthanize my companion of almost 13 years, my housecat Nikita.
She would not survive the weekend, and I will go to the doctor tomorrow to prevent her from suffering.
I am feeling both like crying all night and hitting walls with bare fists.
I will take a while off.
I have no idea. I may need a couple days to come to term with this loss, or I may be back soon hoping to put my mind somewhere else.
Please bot as needed. Apologies.

Sorry about disappearing for the past few weeks. Between exams and someone stealing all my money in my bank account and trying to chase the bank and the various merchants down for my money, I've been really, really tired and blergh. I'm gonna be more active now though, hopefully.

Well, heads up: I'll be travelling tonight to both my own and my SO's family in turn, over the weekend, inmediately followed by a work trip until next tuesday evening.
I should be able to post, but irregulary. I appreciate if you feel you can wait for me, but if I seem to delay a scene, do feel free to bot me.
Yuki Kaijitsu |
Hehe, yeah, the creature acted early this turn around, before Inari did, attacking me.
It may have been a bit confusing, but even botted, you made a great attack and finished the combat for us ;)

I didn't post a map for the house, though maybe a I should have. It's a dinky house, and the map has very limited practical use so I didn't bother. Seemed too much trouble since it is one part of a composite image that contains several small maps.
Oh well, we won't be using it at this point anyway.
Re movement about the house: it's small and a double move by anyone except Mari couldn't even be fully used inside. I figured anyone reaching the top of the stairs would stop and take stock before continuing to move, effectively putting everyone at about 20' of movement. I let Mari take the lead since she specified upstairs and I'd botted her in the last combat round.
Which was my fault. I shouldn't have wrapped the creature's combat round into the other, previous description. That made it hard to find, which is probably why Mari missed it and kept waiting.
I'll be sure to keep those separate in the future.

No worries, just wanted to make sure I did not miss a map!

A couple of things:
To clarify, the party hasn't advanced very far into the marsh at this point. If you check the Brinestump map you can easily find yourselves. The Old Fish Trail is the one the extends from the bottom of "lost" in the Lost Coast Road label. You're at the first bridge you come to on the trail. Mostly you've traveled parallel to the bluff at the edge of the marsh.
The next time you return to town you will be picking up a new member for the party.
I'n not trying to nudge you to do anything in particular, but if it helps in making a decision (if you''re having trouble making a decision) there you go.

Hi Everyone!
I'll be joining your group shortly. Daufni is a switch-hitting ranger and has been living in Sandpoint for several years. She has recently joined the town guard. Other stuff will probably come out in RP.
I've been playing table-top games for decades, but pbp for only a short while.

Good to see you Soprovo! :-)

We may want to stay overnight, but we CAN use the remaining daylight to circle around outside the Marsh and take note of any other entrances or exits, right? Just so we can plan ahead for tomorrow.
If we find no other entrance, we'll know to prepare for heading in deeper the way we tried before. If there's 5 more, we'll have to decide how to proceed.
Or is the area too large? If so, I guess we'll need to do that tomorrow...

Updates tomorrow on the thread rough stretch of days there..

FYI: While I expected to be able to post during the combined work/private trip over the weekend, life had different plans. I'll be attending a funeral tomorrow and it's kept me busy the past 2 days, too.
I will try and post again as soon as possible, please do bot as needed.
DM Púca |
Yeah, that test post was to try and see if new texts were showing up or not when all the old ones disappeared.
Well, after a busy couple of weeks I immediately got sick, which put me behind again. But now I'm caught up again, and not yet sick again.
So, I'll try to get this campaign rolling along. Sorry for the long pause.
Inari Kage |
Thanks for botting me. I was traveling. I thought I'd have reliable internet and some time to post, but I turned out to be wrong about that.
Talene Minly |
Wow Talene, for someone with an AC of 13 you are proving to be utterly untouchable.
Deena protects!!!

Once again, plans in real-life simply don't work out.
I was to attent a training workshop most of this week, and expected to have plenty of time to post during the nights at the hotel, so was a bit lazy last weekend and spend time preparing for the trip.
Little did I know that we only met up at the hotel, then moved by bus to a cabin in the mountains for teambuilding purposes. No phone, no Wi-Fi, and even if we had, no time to post.
It was a very interesting experience, but yeah, sorry for going MIA/AWOL, I'm back and will make sure to catch up on all my games and post ASAP.

Hej. Feeling fine again. Got worse before it got better.
Plus, once I was feeling a bit less ill, I had the bright idea of working on updating my computer system while I was home anyway, which caused some further problems with being able to go online.(Installing W7 on a M2 drive from USB is a mess by itself, certain boxed intel chips come without cooler, and I had no PCIe solution for Wifi(I use cards, not usb connectors)).
Either way, I'm back now and will catch up with all my games plus post today(within about 12 hours). Apologies for going missing. I did update some of my games when I originally fell ill, but not all - assuming I could post somewhat normally for those not moving at too fast a pace.

Crap!
Thank you. Somehow I turned off notifications. I did that in another game recently too. I hate that the little x is right next to the new post counter. On a mobile device it's easy to accidental hit it with my fat fingers.
Seriously, I do not have big fingers and it still happens to me sometimes!
That x is too close to the last post link for my taste.

Often I find that if I fall behind in updates, I need to make time to simply update a Discussion Thread to inform the PCs of a particular game that I am either going to be posting later in the day or week or will be on a break form the boards for one reason or another.
To save time updating so many damn threads I am going to open this thread and link all of my DM aliases (and PC aliases) to this thread to inform people as to my status. So if I am missing for a time, just go ahead and click on the link in my Avatar and you will be able to ascertain my board status.
My sincerest apologies if this is a bit of an inconvenience where you are waiting on me for an action but posting "I will be away for the next 3 days" 47 times (or more) is just not working for me any longer. Thank you for your understanding!

Been feeling crappy, ill post tomorrow
