So, did I get the leather harness rig and the thieves tools, or not? Are they on order, and will get them next time?
Anyone tracking expenditures?
I have a feeling like this interaction could take a while, and I don't want to hold up the momentum of the campaign, so I'm gonna have Enoby say her piece and then I can have her interact with Black Jay some more the next time we are in town.
What is our plan? I say Enoby and I go to the secret exit while the rest of you go in through the front. Zinnath can scout once we are in position and before you enter.
Was at a memorial service over the weekend, sorry 'bout the radio silence.
I'm going to place you guys on the outer map in roughly staggered positions and you can decide to move your tokens as desired. Since you know where the secret door is, and the stony path across the moat, you should have no trouble covering the back exit.
Ok, I've flopped the map back to the moathouse ground level, with half of you inside and half covering the back. Feel free to adjust as needed.
Fezzik's plan sounds good to me!
Me too...
Are there still folks we're waiting on checking in?
Sorry. I've moved Bat's token to the door of the cult quarters; maybe Deko can try to open the door after Bat does her usual crappy Perception check for traps.
Then I think we're awaiting the results of a scary dragon's scouting mission.
Whooof. The bandits beat everyone but Zinnath's initiative. Let's hope we didn't bite off more brigands than we can chew!

Give it time.
EDIT: Oh, you mean dropouts! I thought you were talking about character fatalities.
I just noticed that we have 6 PCs and in seven months we've not lost anyone.
It's worth noting because in PbP that's almost...unheard of. =)
Indeed! And, I think it's worth noting that I really do love this game, and am having a blast with all of y'all. :D
@Bat: The moments I live for in tabletop are when someone does something patently risky and totally pulls it off. That was very nearly a Pulp Fiction moment, it was glorious!

Heh. You all realize that having the cleric search for traps and then go in first is gonna blow up spectacularly in her face eventually, right? Thank heaven for magic shields! :D
Hey everyone: I am currently hosed by the massive internet service outage. I can update on my phone, but it is extremely tedious and I'll only be doing so if absolutely necessary (I.e. a round of combat).
Probably means you can't catch up on Luke Cage or Stranger Things too! Sucks to be you!
I say that, and haven't checked if I can watch Netflix yet!
Eastern US here, which I think is where the problem is.
West coast. The only US area largely unaffected is the central northern US.
lmao at your gameplay post.

Mine? Which one?
Welcome, one and all, to Deko And Zinnath's Bodily Fluid Horror Show. It's fun for the whole family!

It's not my fault! The beast attacked me!
Zinnath Stephenson's modern sci-fi classic, Snow Punch.
Haha.
I hope everyone had a fun Halloween!
Yes, kids had fun. Now I get to eat the candy they can't have. :)

Heh. Can you imagine trick-or-treaters leaving Deko's home on Halloween night?
"I got giant frog legs."
"I got...a snake's tail."
"I got...I think these are giant rat intestines! Eww!!"
So...single door near where we are currently or the double doors to the east?
double doors it is!
Excellent!
Do we maybe want to load all the gear onto our wagon and return to Hommlet to report to Burne?
The other choices as I see them are 1) Destroy the stash; or 2) Leave it there and hope it doesn't get used against us or the town any time soon.
Since we just arrived, I think we should continue to explore. When we are ready to return, then we can load up the wagon.
Quick Note: I'll probably be offline for the next couple of days (jury duty tomorrow (at the least); holiday Friday). I hope to catch up on Saturday and will give an update then if I actually get picked for a jury.
If you don't want to get picked then say things like:
"Well, the police wouldn't have charged them if they weren't guilty."
or...
"Well, the police are always trying to pad their numbers by bringing a bad rap against an innocent person."
If you prefer to not use either of those prejudicial phrases, then go with something more along the lines of...
"I'm pretty sure I read all about this one in the newspapers when it happened."
@Zinnath: Or I could always go the crazy and delusional route and claim to actually be a mighty and scary white dragon in disguise. ;)
Be careful, that's a tough one to pull off successfully!
Sorry! Things got a little chaotic for me the last few days. Kept meaning to post a heads up I might be a bit quiet, but things kept drawing my brain elsewhere. Back to normal going forward, though!
I didn't get empaneled so I'll not be dispatching Pelor's justice in these parts for the next three years at least ;)
Still won't be able to post tomorrow, so the GM can feel free to bot Bat.
Since the room is empty, just waiting on Zinnath to check the door for traps before we move forward.
Just heard about all the earthquakes in New Zealand. I only know one person who lives down there, and fortunately he's abroad at the moment. Living in the Bay Area, it's definitely got my earthquake anxiety spiking today. D:
I'm afraid for all of the Hobbits of the Shire!
As the GM and some of you may know, I don't have home internet and post from my local library. Well, I went to the ER last night and found out that I have a kidney stone. The doctors are hoping I'll pass it within a week. Right now the pain's not bad, so my tentative plan is to visit the library briefly every other day to catch up/stay current in the games I play on these forums. If the pain gets as bad as I'm told it might, that's subject to change. So if I disappear...that's the reason. I'll try to post an update when I can.
The GM may bot my character as he sees fit.
