I know, right?? And yet I know people who organize them alphabetically by album name. I mean, my way isn't the only way, but it is the best way.
Yikes. Veronica Cartwright, could you please show the people how I feel about organizing CDs like that?
Thanks, Veronica...

Kingmaker Con! Where would we have it? In Colorado? I like this fantasy, Aest. And Kaz, be careful of what you wish for...
| GM Aest |
I'm not sure. Colorado would be pretty cool, but probably not the Western Slope where I live, since there's no major airports nearby so flying in is more expensive.
| Cyanne Miller |
Denmark is beautiful, especially in the summer. I saw it when I was 12, and thought it was one of the prettiest countries I've even seen.
So long as were spending Aest's fantasy money, can we invite all the lurkers, too? I'm sure Bret would love to commiserate with Mrs. Daen and all the mini-Daens...

Heck in six years, just about everyone but me could have more children*. I'm done. Menopause. I highly recommend it.
Hmm

Hello. There will be no post today, either.
I just got home from a meeting with all of the literacy paraprofessionals in my school district, as well as about half of the computer paraprofessionals. Due to "budget cuts" (read: the previous superintendent was a big spender, and the new one decided 3000 iPads were more important than staff), every one of those paraprofessionals is losing their job at the end of the year.
Needless to say, I'm unhappy, and will likely begin drinking in the next two hours, once I pick up my mom and some vodka/red bull. I'll be making sub plans so that the other staff doesn't have to deal with me hung over and bitter, but I won't be in much shape to post, I'm afraid.
| Cyanne Miller |
Oh, Aest, that sucks.
I will stop spending your fantasy money and instead send you a virtual hug. Here's hoping that the job market brings you something even better than what you had.
Hmm
| Laliytsa Iansoh |
My computer is being angry, so I'm stuck posting from my phone. Bot me as necessary. I think I'm just going to wait and see what happens to Cyanne anyways lol.
I saw Deadpool and I loved it. Kaz, your mom sounds amazing. I don't think I could get my Dad to go see it unless I bribed him with money. That shoe website is down and that makes me sad. :(
I LOVE the idea of Kingmaker Con! I would do that in a heartbeat.
Aest, I'm really sorry to hear that, that sucks so much. :(
| Cyanne Miller |
Yeah. I haven't clicked the spoiler because I didn't make the SM check, but I figure Cyanne is likely climbing into a grade-A trap. My characters always trust the little kids. In PFS, any kid lost in a scary dungeon or haunted house is going to try to eat your face off.
I hope your computer problems end soon, Lali.
Hugs
Hmm

In six years I might have 3 more children.
I see a "might", but somehow I suspect thats leaning more towards being an assertion than a guess.
I have no idea who or what's down there, but I had a GM send a modified Attic Whisperer after my group and now I never trust strange children.
Oh wow, just went and googled what that is. Do not want!

It's official now. Wife is pregnant again. #5 is alive!
| GM Aest |
Surprisingly, I'm not hung over. Not because I didn't want to be, but because I had no booze in the house and no desire to even attempt to find any. However, I'm also not feeling particularly positive, and I imagine that feeling is not going to get better.
I'm going to force myself to post in the three games I'm running, unless something else comes up.
| El Ronza |
Whew, lots of emotional whiplash going on here from all the news. Lemme break this down (posting from my OOC alias rather than my character one).
I'm absolutely down for 'Kingmaker Con', and I may or may not start squirreling some money away ASAP. (Hey, I still don't have a job, despite my efforts; I need as much time as possible.)
My mum continues to be an awesome woman. She bought me a second-hand dining table and chairs today, which is good, because I'll have very little furniture in the new place.
Sister and I move out on Monday, and we don't have internet yet, though we'll probably connect to the National Broadband Network soon-ish. I should still be able to post frequently (my mother lives five minutes away, and there's a library within walking distance), just maybe not every day.
Lali, sorry to hear about your computer woes. Hope you can get that sorted soon.
Daen, wow! Child #5 on the way? That's wonderful news; congrats to you and your wife!
And finally, in the interest of full disclosure, I have an ulterior motive for already saving for airline tickets, and I might end up flying internationally before our little con. In a nutshell, Aest and I are giving the whole long-distance relationship thing a shot, and it seems to be going pretty well. We figured we should let you know, since it was this game that did it, and we're all friends here.
EDITED to add: if anyone squeals at this news, my money's on Cyanne!
| Zohruk |
Congratulations for the assorted good news being bandied about this thread, and for the less-so news of Aest's employment bloodbath, best wishes for resiliency under pressure. Hang in there.
| GM Aest |
Yeah. It's been brewing for a while, to be honest. As far as the game goes, don't expect anything to change. I'll still be perfectly willing to kill Kazimir if the situation demands it, and Erastil already expended enough energy resurrecting that guy!
Post will be up tonight, I all but promise.
| Zohruk |
So last night, my wife and I relinquished our status as the last two adult, carbon based lifeforms that had not seen Star Wars. Yaaaay.
(Beaucoup fun, one or two small reservations about it but overall a blast.)
| Laliytsa Iansoh |
*SCREECHING NOISES*
Congratulations to everyone! Aest, Kaz, I think it's super cool that the two of you are dating! And Daen, congrats on your fifth (!) kid. I tip my hat to you, most days it's all I can do to care of myself. I walked around all day yesterday with my shirt on backwards. /facepalm

You learn to kind of make it a look, like you meant to do it that way. I've got more excuse now than I did at 19, anyway. :-)
| Kazimir Vasilovich |
Yep, this changes nothing. Kaz isn't the GM's girlfriend's super-buffed invincible PC. He's still available to be killed or shipped or whatever. :P Thanks for the support, folks! Being a very easily-stressed person, I got all worked up about telling; looks like I shouldn't have worried!
Also, moving day was today, so I'll be a bit sporadic until we have the internet connected. I have my phone data, but it doesn't go far; I also live 5 minutes from my mother and within walking distance of a library. So I'll be around as posting, just not every day.
| Laliytsa Iansoh |
I'm back to normal, wheee! I will get a proper post up "tomorrow" because it's almost 3am and my brain is melting. Of course, if that kid is going to jump off Cyanne's shoulders and latch onto me like a headcrab then feel free to post that first ;)
| Cyanne Miller |
Yeah, I'm also curious to see what happens with the kid... It's very good to have you back, Lali. So how did you get a new computer or a repaired computer at 3am? Does the computer fix-it fairy work third shift?
Hmm
PS Based on posts that you made elsewhere, do you need to take a GM break for a couple weeks, Aest? We love this game, but we love you more. Don't stress over us, and don't burn out for us.
| GM Aest |
No, I think I'm okay to keep going. I've been monitoring this game, but with Lali's computer problems and Kazimir's moving, it hasn't been the most active. I'll be updating tonight, though.
To be honest, I'll probably take a few-week hiatus after the book's done, though. Just to refresh and reacquaint myself with Book Two in depth.
| Laliytsa Iansoh |
Heh, nope, not at 3am. I got everything back late Monday and started playing catch up. I wasn't planning on jumping back in until today, but then I woke myself up at 2am and figured that as long as I can't sleep I might as well check in.
| Cyanne Miller |
Hey, my face has not been bitten off (yet). However, the last request was... off. Permission for a Sense Motive on it?
| GM Aest |
You can always take checks of any type. Just because I didn't spoiler something doesn't mean nothing can be found out, it just means I didn't bother spoilering something.
| Cyanne Miller |
Oh, Lali, it's so good to have you back!!!! It's girl time, and we're going to rock this!
| Kazimir Vasilovich |
I already had it. All of it. But half the local PFS guys have since jumped on the deal, because damn is it a good one!

| Kazimir Vasilovich |
Yo, GM! Can I sub a bull rush attempt for that reflex save? I'm pretty sure Kaz's first instinct would be to get the singer to safety, but my Reflex save is bad (especially since I still have a negative level)...
| GM Aest |
Yeah, I think that'd be alright.
I'm always open to any creative solutions or other uses of your abilities, etc. Just let me know what you want, and I'll try to get back to you at a reasonable time.
