Howdy! Thanks so much for checking in, man, I appreciate it. I'm still just completely swamped. Every time I think I'm getting my head above water, I get yanked back down. I promise I haven't forgotten about y'all, I have every intention of getting things kicked back into gear. There's still a lot of story to tell...
Bleargh. Apparently I needed to pull a Bill Watterson there and take two straight sabbaticals. Yeesh. >_< I was gonna write another apology/explanation, but I figure everyone would prefer it greatly if I used that energy just to post, instead, so that's what I'm gonna do. :-)
Life is beyond ludicrously busy for me right now, so I still may miss a day or two here and there, but I am committed to my games. Thank you all for sticking around despite those lacunas.
That's OK, you take all the time you need, I can't speak for the others, but even if you wanted to just update once a week/fortnight for a while that'd be fine with me.
Thank you sir, much appreciated. ^_^ I do like to try to keep things moving. Got a feeling I might have to send some PMs to folks to let them know things are happening again.
Hey guys, we had a very large tree branch come down in our back yard last night that ripped all the lines out of our power pole. As such, while we got power back within a few hours, we still have no internets since we have to wait 'til the tree guys can clear everything away so the cable company can get us back up and running. On top of this, I leave for a major trade show (Sweetwater's GearFest - kind of a junior NAMM, sort of) in a couple hours and won't be back until very late Saturday night. As such, I may not be able to post again until Sunday, and if I do, it'll just be short updates.
Hey guys! For some reason I wasn't seeing activity on this game. Ugh. No, let's continue. I'm gonna message everybody this weekend and try to get things moving again...
The 'new posts' and RSS aren't updating for me. I hadn't realized there were new posts in Gameplay until I saw it get bumped in the messageboard Focus view...
BTW, I talked to Matt Grau at the WildFire booth at GenCon a couple weeks ago, and he said they've got some rad new stuff coming down the pipe, including a massive update for a new calendar year in the game world set a bit in the future, and more source books. He was happy to hear how much folks are digging the game, I get the feeling it's one of his favorite projects among the many with which he's involved.
Ack! Now I'M not seeing the update count. What the hell. Sorry, guys, I didn't know anyone was posting. Crappity! Will update tonight. Obviously need to watch this one more diligently, for a multitude of reasons.
I think after a week or so of not posting it puts you on an inactive list until you post again. Because all the ones that weren't showing posts started to right after I posted on them again lol!
So no problems DRA your a busy guy we understand. ;D Besides i'm updating excel sheets and crap right now so yeah... can't...
Hehe still waiting to see if my coming to back up john has any negative impacts. Was there something you needed me to roll bossman? Because I'm still here and totally interested. :)
OK, and I'll read up on the rules again, It's just not a system I normally use and because of the long break, gaps are their in my understanding of the mechanics. I promise I'll read up on them again, but what is the go with the 2 shot paralysis needles. Also I forgot to mention that anyone of those guys who saw me needs a fear roll ;)
Do the construction of the mech and the properties of the Eldritch Faculties spell allow me to use it on the battlefield? I just realized I might not need to rely on those X-ray scanners after all...

He can also see the auras of living things – which allows him to ascertain a being’s health and wellness, its dominant emotional state or states, and if it is affected by or under the influence of magic or para-psychic powers.
Yikes! Take care of yourself, sir. My best wishes go with you. Hope everything goes alright.
On that note, with everything else going on and with Winston still AWOL, I am going to put this thread on hold for now. I'm going to keep my eye on it, so if anyone is itching to get going, or if things settle, then we'll pick it back up, but for now I'm going to close the doors and hang the "Be Back Soon" sign.
