Conan didn't just slay his enemies if you know what I mean Monkey Man!

Hmmm,...

He's,... not wrong. Makes a valid point. ;)

'THAT' is even a part of the Original Xbox Conan video game.
(One of them, anyway. I have a couple of them.)

Yeah, course Conan being tall, dark and handsome certainly helps. Not to mention he was absolutely chiseled. Like I'm sure his abs had abs. Karrin has read a few romance novels growing up and has opined the want for a boy friend with "Strong gripping hands" as mentioned in said books.

LOL,

Yeah, I am NOT tall, dark, OR handsome.
(In my opinion. My wife's opinion may vary) ;P

Either way, definitely not chiseled! :(

So with that failure to use the Chaositech I guess we need to walk out of here after all?

Walk.
OR run. Depending on what the spinning eyeball/sun-o-doom does next ;P

I’m going to do one mulligan. Just because I’d like to give you folks concrete directions rather than have you spend the summer searching around for the way out.

It never fails-- any day I end up having to work late, that's when everyone decides to post...

Yeah, sorry.

(I think I've proven THAT more than once!)
;P

OR, as we say in Theater, Whenever something is announced;
"Thank you Mulligan!" :D

Just want to say still here but having a bit of writes block on what to post so just assume Merle is just fasinated by all the stuff going on (and maybe shooting a couple glares at the pervert skull.)

Hey Kevin!
Glad to see you!

I won't lie, Merle was being unusually quiet for a bit. I thought we lost you.

(I mean, it has been way too long since she made a snarky 'Sorc > Wiz' comment, and got smacked by Seph) :)

I know the feeling all too well.

Forgot to mention, Gonna be very busy next week+ or so.
Mostly Orientations and dance shows. THIS week. :P

SO if I vanish, sorry, I'll be back! :D

Hopefully I'll have enough late-night free time to keep up and get a post in!

Hi folks. Hope everyone had a great Memorial Day weekend. I was super busy, so i didn’t have a lot of time to update anything, but I am hoping to rectify that piecemeal this week.

Yay! :)

Still going to be a long week for me. (long week, long days, just,... long)
;P

I'll try to stay current, probably late(r) at night(s).

So, you can see from the time gap between posts what things have been like. I had meant to post that Memnon post directly after that first one. Boy howdy.

Plus, I’m not sure what’s going on but i haven’t been able to get on the site a lot this week. At least when I have been able to try

Few inexplicable outages i have seen as well.

Yeah, lots of 502 Bad Gateway errors...

Hi All,

Just a note, I'm working a LONG Sat tomorrow, and I leave for almost the whole week Sunday morning.

My wife and I just had our 29th wedding anniversary, and next week is actually a slow/dead week for me, so we're headed BACK to Florida.
We'll go to Universal (MAYBE a day at Disney? We did honeymoon there long ago!) and spend too much money eating out and shopping between riding a few rides.

I'll have my laptop, but I DON'T plan on being in the hotel room long enough to fire it up unless work calls me for an emergency.
(A MAJOR emergency!) ;P

Sorry for last minute notice, PLease bot as needed, and I'll catch up when I get back next weekend!

Thank you!
Have a good week all,

I'm Baaaaaaaack!

You may cheer now.
(Or cry. WHichever works for you) ;P

Hi folks. Sorry for the prolonged silence. My bad. I was trying to be better with my communication, but I failed. I actually went on vacation, and just got back. I don’t have a good excuse- I should have mentioned it, but I got spun up with everything that needed doing as I got prepping. However, I hope to carve out some time for some updates today, including- just maybe- reinvigorating my photoshop suite. We shall see.

Stay tuned and stay chill!

Sweet!
At least it was a GOOD reason!
(Vacation is good in my opinion!) ;P

Hope you had a great time!

Welcome back,

Thank you! Unfortunately my work welcomed me back too lol

Thank you! Unfortunately my work welcomed me back too lol

Welcome back home, and to gaming? YAY!

Welcome back to WORK?!?,... Booooooo! ;P

Let me guess, now you need a vacation, from your vacation? :)

I’m about caught up now. I’m hoping that I can get some serious game updates set this weekend

Sweeet! :D

(Good job catching up at work! I can barely stay CURRENT with my work. 'Catching up' once behind is as much a dream as me getting a raise before I retire!) ;P

Heh. At least you get to retire

Heh. At least you get to retire

I know, right?

We've also been getting slammed at work the past couple weeks, and the massive amounts of rain haven't been helping the excavations go any quicker.

I do apologize for being slow to post--I check the thread every day, but on top of my being exhausted, my character a) doesn't talk much to begin with, and b) is going through a rage-induced mental breakdown. I will try to do better with keeping the action moving, though.

Heh. At least you get to retire

From your mouth to God's ears!

Of course, my retirement would be 'ok', if I could ever get a raise, so that I have a decent amount to retire with 50% of! ;P

Yeah, there has been mucho rain-o down south here lately as well. We finally get a couple of days to dry out, and JUST when I'm about to mow my yard,...

Sigh, Ima gonna have to hire someone with a riding lawnmower to mow this jungle I have growing here. :(

ALessia is doing great at being,... Alessia. :)

I mean, she is literally keeping us moving forward right now. ;)

Yep, driving the plot by just being her

Speaking of which, I've been thinking a bit:

That was fun!
A cool puzzle-challenge.

One bad dice roll, (barring timely intervention of an aid another or similar) and it would have been golem throw down time!

I mean, those are fun too! ;)

(Well, not so much for casters. Golems are notoriously spell-resistant!) ;P

Can always count on you to provide an interesting and fun challenge!
:D

** spoiler omitted **

Folks, I have been thinking about some stuff lately, and how technology has been changing. For instance, I have always not liked the PM system here. So, I am proposing that for communication since I no longer use any social media platforms outside of LinkedIn, I would invite you to my personal Discord server. There you can notify me of anything through DMs by friending me, I can post art or maps or anything else and if we have conversations we can reference them without the annoying parsing that comes with the system here. So here is an invite link. It will be good for seven days as of today - so up to 7/5 iirc

INVITE

I know Shadow you mentioned you hate it, but you have my phone number, so you can just text me ;)

Thanks Pat!

Hey all,

I'm taking another lil' trip. To see my family in Oklahoma. So I'll be out next week for the 4th of july.

I will try to keep up, but I expect posting opportunities to be few.
Please forgive my absence, and 'bot my toon(s) as needed.

See you all when I get back!

Pre-emptive 4th of July! :)

Top tier dice rolling Rags!

I accepted the invitation, and I think I've mostly figured out how the thing works-- I've used it before, but not in a long time. As far as texting goes, I can receive regular texts, but I don't have a smartphone, so sending texts is a little tricky, and I can't send or open attachments. Outside of Messenger and Discord, e-mail is one of my go-to options for contact.

I will also be traveling for the fourth. Just putting that out pre-emptively. I might be able to post, as long as it isn't too complex.

I'm BaaaacK! :)

("Fear me. If you dare!") ;P

Been quiet on the ol' posting-front this week/end.

Hope everyone is having/had a good weekend? :)
