Cap'n - is the blackened stump above or below the knee roll? My mental image has it as a mid-thigh termination, but I could be wrong.

That's fine. I'll leave the exact details up to you.

Just wanted you guys to know how much I'm enjoying the drama unfolding at the Sawbones.
It's more Mark stepping up the dramatic gravitas methinks... Ol' Kauly is the comic relief in all this lol.

Glad you're enjoying Dingus :) - it takes two (or in this case three) to tango though, so dinnae be sneakin too much credit me crusty an smelly arsed way.
Hi Guys. Work is insane right now, so though I'll keep up and post as needed, I won't be able to expand upon my actions for a couple of weeks.
Nae worries snake-hips - we'll keep things on the even keel fer ye!

Wait, when did we start doing that?
Haha. Once I wrote that I actually mused - nah that ain't us... but then the site dropped out.
Waiting to see if Kaul has a response to his new 'converts'.
Also, Groom, Jim you still in the game?
Spectating, and waiting for Groom to sound off.

I'm glad to hear from Groom, but I don't know that we can expect anything regular- it's been a month since his last post. I'll NPC him, but Jim will prob need to lead a bit.
BTW, thanks for the recap for Peligro, Jim. Helps me see what you all's impressions are.
Dudes - can you re-PM me current addressing? - I has a thing to send.
So... the next few weeks are going to be interesting for me - which will have an affect on my PbP-osity as well. Starting tomorrow our apartment starts to become less inhabited as the movers begin to excise everything. Thankfully I'll keep the interwebs until Friday - but after then things are going to get scratchy from me until I'm firmly ensconced down in Sydney come the end of April.
So please to be keeping patience and whatnot... I'll be as active as I can.

Fun fact of the moment - our life can be packed up into 223 boxes... well that and about 120kg of luggage for the plane ;)

Presumably 220 boxes for your gaming paraphernalia, 2 boxes for the kids toys (that dad loves to play with) and 1 box of mundane items lol.
The first half of the audit is done. They'll be back in two weeks, but in the meantime things have relaxed quite a bit here. At least for today, so I'm catching up on games.
Driving about a lot yesterday and today, so no chance to post.
Safely in Sydney... but still sorting out interwebs collywobbles.
Shipmates - just a wee heads up that I’ll be out of town this weekend. Helping out as pit-crew for a mate of mine whose racing bikes, heading off this afternoon and we’ll not be back until late Sunday. Will most likely be Monday morning before I’ll get back into the posting swing.
I'm going to be having a lot of people visiting today and tomorrow, which will likewise soak up pretty much all of my time.
Soooo... half way to the circuit our van's water pump went kaput. Back home pending a possible re-run tomorrow... Best laid plans and all that!
Cleanup Sunday, followed by the return of the auditors today.
And the audit is turning into a dumpster fire, so I haven't had time for this or Iron Gods.
Pressies arrived today Mark - loved 'em. Will belay any more comments until the rest of the crew get theirs :)
Cheers again (especially as they were sent in the midst of your moving maelstrom!)
Still waiting and the anticipation is KILLING ME!
Lucre has arrived in the Sunshine State as well... Awesome...
The package made it to the sort-of frozen north, but I haven't had the chance to open it. We survived the audit, though--dumpster fire and all. I hear a drink or five calling me.
Whoa. Everyone on the same day. Thank you, Sir!
You're all most welcome - it should have been 'better'... I asked the guy (Kickstarter) a few times if he could emboss names onto the mats but didn't get a response :(
But happygladgladhappy that they've arrived in good nick :)
All very good nick :) - mat is already at work...
Is the wee strap and clip for mat rolling/securement purposes?

Yup - ye got it
I knew that :)

Yeah... Me too...

Oooooh. I couldn't figure out why you sent such a small bracelet.... That makes much more sense!
Very nice! I have some dice that actually require something like this, if I don't want to leave dents in the table.

Hah. I hear ya. Heavy Dice.
good name for a band...
On the road Friday & Saturday, and recovering Sunday; one of my nieces had a baby Friday morning, so I took my mom to visit.
Congrats Jimmer - here's to the new crewlet :)
Safely arrived on the rig and am bobbing about in the sea off Japan. Should be capable of checking in tangibly within the next 24-48 hours after the initial hand-over period dies down somewhat.
Stay safe chief - CWI role again?
just rehashing auld lang syne with the 'Engineer' and noticed treasure apparently forgotten again:
A roomy lilac blouse with tiny anchors stitched into the fabric and tight red pants which actually fit quite well though a bit big in the hips may suite Dingus . Once modestly covered again, the skinny sorcerer has a more in depth look at the loot. Amongst the clothes chest, a pair of soft soled low black boots detect magic (burglar boots), as does a bandolier (beneficial bandolier).
The sea-goat horn is strange, but when softly sounded, it deadens the noise around you . When blown loudly it summons a sea-goat to carry you through the waves .
Dingus should have a wand of major image in his gear somewhere as well.

so are youliving back in Oz and working in Japan? that seems like a helluva commute!
| 1 person marked this as a favorite. |
Just a one off job at the moment - 9.5 hour flight from Sydney to Tokyo; then three train trips down to a wee coastal town called Gamagori (about 5 hours worth)... then a 35 minute ride out. So yeah - bit of a commute :P
Not actually a direct supervisor out here - I'm an 'advisor' which basically means I twiddle my thumbs half the day looking for something to do... usually I'd be directly responsible for stuff - but the Japanese guys are taking care of that, so I just need to provide input and suggestions.
Not too bad though - it's a well swish drill ship, massive bugger with over 180 beds, single room for me... and lobster for dinner tonight :P
We tend to be terrible at tracking lucre. If any band of ner'do-wells ever needed a loot spreadsheet it's us. Any volunteers?

Any jobs going? I'll easily commute from Scotia for that level of offshore swank :)

(quietly steps backward one pace ;)
I do it for a couple of games I'm in - thankless task getting people to actually claim the swag even when you track it...

Now this is some epic cover art! here
Nestor White and Whitecoat are two different folks, but I easily see how they'd be confused. Now I need to remember what Nestor was up to...
