Will not be posting today. Extremely busy!
Just waiting on everyone to reach a consensus before I post! No rush though guys.
I'm waiting for a "heal" or "magical heal" post from the big guy or the princess :D
Mamoru will follow Mai's lead. Looks like the trogs are being told to leave.
I'm just waiting for confirmation, as she hadn't completely committed to that course of action. Unless I just read too much into it!
sorry, timing thrown off today. Yeah, honestly I may be overthinking my strategy, but I've been rolled by enough opponents in some of the games I play that I can get paranoid. Yeah, if no one else has a more sound ploy, then we'll go with that.
Onward then! :)
Wu Fen if I may suggest. I will always attempt to determine what kind of creature we are facing and for expedience have been adding a die roll for the knowledge check. Would it be possible to add the necessary knowledge check to the initial description?
Sorry for being absent the past two days everyone! I've been busy with the standard pre-Thanksgiving college work and family stuff. Hopefully no one is disheartened by this turn of events. I will be posting tomorrow since Thanksgiving holiday is now in effect at the college and I should be doing little to no cross-state traveling as well. Thanks everyone for your (Hopefully,) patience!
Holiday starts now for me. My only other classes this week are on the closed days.
*throws victorious fist in the air.*
But I still have homework to keep up on...
*slumps shoulders.*
Oh, that sucks Seori! I was glad once my break started!
Everyone, Google Docs is acting stupid. Posting a link to the map on another website for you all.

You all are in the room north-northwest of the large throneroom with the red carpet. Waiting on everyone to confirm their actions since the map is up.
My apologies for this!
Does everyone know if Roll20 is decent for maps?
It is, but I understand there's a bit of a learning curve. A couple YouTube tutorials might be necessary.
photobuckets is better
Are we still waiting on someone?
idk :(
Thanksgiving slowed down most games.
Yeah, kinda like most sleep schedules.
I'm still here! There was no Internet at the boondocks-ish area we stayed at for the holidays. Nonetheless I apologize for my absence as I should have anticipated such and prepared accordingly. Logging on to post this quickly because, looking at my student page for my college, Dr.O's finals are do-at-home essays due on Tuesday. I will post tomorrow and try to make 3 posts/day to compensate for my absence.
Sorry for the wait everyone! I will look at Roll20 and see how it works. Hopefully it's not TOO complicated, though I rather doubt it will be.
Thanks for the update. I will likely be out of the loop for most of the day tomorrow but I will try to pop in and post.
DM man, might I suggest google docs first?
Easier to use and share :-)
(This is an example from my own roleplay group.)
Hiriko, no problem at all. Thanks for the advance notice though.
Takeshi, a good point, though I was hoping for something that made the maps interactive.
If this is the way we go with it, does anyone have a problem with hand drawn maps? I ask because since this is going to be so freeform for the first half of the campaign I will likely be drawing up maps for the locations. Already began with some maps for locations on the island the characters are on.
You can make them interactive: setting the "Can display" to "Can edit", then people can move their figure to wherever they designate :)
And no, no problem :)
Ah, I've never noticed that Takeshi! I feel like slapping myself in the face for overlooking it! On my phone now, but I should have an actual map up in Campaign Info tonight or tomorrow!
I have done something similar in games I have GM'd Wu Fen. It can be a lot of work on the DMs shoulders to draw maps but if you feel your up to it more power to you.
That's the way I've always done it. Creating maps can take a little while, but they work pretty well.
I know there's a way to upload images to use as a backdrop. A GM I play with takes pictures of maps and uploads them, and then makes tokens to move around on them. I've never done it though, so I'm not exactly sure how it works.
It's quite easy. I even made an entire 'folder' shared with my peeps, which contain maps, contracts, pictures, etc. This way nthing gets lost!
Whenever i want to add, i simply drag and inform them in ooc tags :-)
Wu Fen do you need a couple of days to get things prepared or something? If not I think we are waiting on you. Since no one made the check I assume we are following the trogs out as we previously decided. Alaren is the only one that hasn't made an attempt and is the most likely to make the perception check out of all of us. Unfortunately he still hasn't made an appearance so you may have to make a decision on that as well.
Yeah, might be one of those patient periods. It's all good though; long as know the game hasn't just fallen flat on us, I have all the patience in the world.
Yeah same here :D
Slow progression beats no progression at all :D
true...
Finals week(s) are now OVER! WHOOOOOOO!
Sorry about the 1-day delay, all!
As for Alaren, I will GMNPC him for a week and if he doesn't show, I have another player interested in the spot.
Huzzah!!
Yes. I just did that. Yes. I just offered to bring an ogre to a tea party.
Tabletop RPG rule no# 1.
Fun time.
Anyone else surprised that Mr. Flatbelly wasn't dressed as the mad hatter?
No? Just me?
the nights still young. maybe that is what was taking so long behind the door :)
Had there been a bet, I would have lost money too. Damned Mad Hatter, I love him/her/it!
Mad Hatter is awesome!
By the way, I'll post in a bit, just posting a message in all my campaigns! See below to see what!
I've decided to sell or give away all of my video games and systems because they interfere with me doing more important things, like helping other people, getting college work done, ect. There's another, more important reason, but I digress Now, I have games for 360, PS3, X-Box, PS2, GBA, PS1, and GameCube that I'm looking to get rid of.
I'll give you one game for free from my massive library of 100+ games and can sell you others pretty dirt cheap. I'll be using the money I make for charitable purposes, so the money won't be wasted if you choose to buy one. Even if you get the free one, though, I'll just ask to be reimbursed the shipping, but I believe that's fair (You can send it after you get the game,).
If anyone is interested, just let me know and I'll compile a list! About the only kind of games I do not own are sports games, because I'm one of those rare few guys who doesn't get into sports, except for fencing!
Oh, and I haven't drank anything, I am just choosing to restructure my life in a better way, so yes, I know what I'm doing! ;)
Not really a console guy, but a real nice effort, loving the money going to charity.

Ok, that's it! Well, plus about a hundred more already chosen as Christmas presents, but no point in listing those!
After you pick a free game, you can also choose to add an old game for $5 (GBA games, $1,), or a new game (Meaning 360/PS3/Wii,) game for between $5-$10. If you find a cheaper price for one you are interested in on GameStop, let me know and I'll match it! With very few exceptions, my discs are immaculate, with maybe a few specks of dust on them, unless I bought them with scratches. Even those scratched have been buffed so that they play smoothly. I will likely handle actual purchases through E-Bay or something like that so you'll know this is legit. Those only getting a free game will be operating on an honor code: once the game is received, mail back the shipping costs to cover my fees. Ok, anyone wanting, PM now!
I'm very interested in that copy of Eternal Darkness. That's a hard game to find.
What's the shipping cost to get from you to California?
Whatever FedEx or UPS will charge, Doomed Hero. Any others you are interested in? I also have the strategy guide for it, if you want it as well. You'll probably need it to get the Mantorok (Spelled correctly?) rune and the enchanted gladius. Ever played it before? I love the sanity meter!
I have, I love it. I definitely want my own copy. Don't need the guide though. I never use them. PM me with a cost to ship the game and I'll give you my address.
Will do! I'm waiting until everyone places their 'orders' before I create an E-Bay account (For those actually buying any,) and checking on shipping prices.
I just checked. UPS said it would be about $13.50.
Can't say I have most of those systems, but...
Nice Armored Core collection. Overboost for life.
The systems that we have in kind our games seem to pretty much match up. I mean I never meet anyone else that had Might and Magic Elements: Dark Messiah before :)
Yeah, MME:DM had it's bad points, but Spartan-kicking someone off a cliff or landing a sneak attack were very hilarious!
Sorry I haven't posted, I was making a visit to see my cousin earlier, sift through Holiday stuff, and work some romance on a very beautiful lady (No, not that kind of romance, you pervert!)! ;)
Will resume my postsplosioning later today, sorry for the wait!
Also, instead of every other Thursday, I will not be posting on Saturdays!
Every other...
Not...
/confused
What exactly is the post schedule?
