Just to let you all know, my posting will slow down this week as I'm joining my family on a trip to Chicago! I'll post if I have a spare moment, but if things need to move along, please bot my character. Thank you! :)
I think my live table just fell apart. I may need a few days to get rid of the lingering anger, bitterness, and sadness I feel.
Damn, that sucks. I hope you are wrong and some time to cool off can help fix things.
Part of it did break off and honestly I am fine with it. Bad players have been purged before. Friday I am moving so I doubt I will post then.
I just realized, I don't think we've heard from Syeira recently. Has she posted anywhere else recently?
Syeira's player has given me proper notice that she needs to get her sleeping schedule back on track and would be stepping away from the boards for an extended period.
Hopefully, she'll return before long but I do not know when if at all.
It's good to hear that she's taking care of herself. I'd do the same in her position.
I am kinda jealous and might need to do that after the unpacking is done. Moving wrecked me. Sorry for the slow posting.
Well I definitely recommend it to anyone that needs it. For a while there, I was getting only 2-3 hours of sleep a night; I was in such a fog every day I couldn't hold a conversation much less write a coherent sentence, and stressing about not being able to post only exacerbated things.
But I'm back now and getting full nights' sleep again and DM Default gave me the greenlight to jump back in! Many, many thanks for your patience and understanding everyone!
Welcome back! It is tempting but children wouldn't let me. Sleep aids are helping and I am getting less foggy.
Woohoo! Welcome back Syeira! Hope you continue to get well-deserved rest.
Hooray! We missed you and I'm glad you're getting the sleep you need! :D
Aww, thanks you guys! I missed you all, too.
I'm sorry to hear you're having sleeping troubles too, DAA. It's good that the sleep aids are working, though. My troubles really started when I suddenly became immune to those things. Ugh.
Sleep is important. I miss being able to sleep for three hours a night for weeks and be fine. Ahh, my wasted youth..
Melatonin helps me and works way better than any of the other things I have tried in the past. My room is right by the front door and the living room and since I work nights I sleep while my sister in law and the babies are up and moving around. The baby is happy but really loud.
My problem has always been over the counter pain meds that I develop an immunity too. That one sucks.
*applause*
Seriously, that has to be one of the best speeches I've heard on these forums!
For sleep issues, I've been using weird ASMR videos. Oddly tingly, but they get the job done.
There's a piece of music that was specifically calibrated to do something similar.
Thanks fellahs. :)
I'm gonna agree with the others. Well done on the heart string tugging :D
Sorry folks, Orendel's just not sneaky.
I understand. The dice roller surprised me.
Eh, I didn't expect anybody to be mad at me anyway. I'm not just the gang's tank, my build's very raison d'être is to be the noisiest and most colorful thing on the battlefield. I crave the attention of enemy and ally alike!
Sneaky high-five, Cherry! ;)
High fives!
Yay! High fives all around!
Woot! Thanks for the save.
We're starting to function like a real squad now! ;)
I'll admit the one thing that's bugged me about this game has been the sheer number of times we've been outsmarted. One of Orendel's defining things is he never wants to be outsmarted and ambushed again, and yet we've basically fallen for every trick that's been placed in front of us.
I understand
Sorry guys, had a bit of burnout over last week.
I understand completely. That's happened to me too.
Glad you're back, though!
it happens but I'm glad you are back!
Orendel, don't feel obliged to use non-lethal damage just because Silvio does. I had to take a feat to eliminate the attack penalty, which is huge. And having a mix of lethal and nonlethal damage will still leave the guy unconscious . . . most of the time.
Alrighty! I've corrected the post!
I got hurt at work and the medicine that the doctor gave me has made me really foggy. I still get to work which is good for my bills. But if need be bot me cause I have no idea how functional I will be.
Get well soon, Dougal! *e-hugs*
Definitely, if you've still got to work, then spend the rest of your time getting rest!
Thanks for letting us know Dougal.
Thank you! Couple of days in and I am a little less foggy. I am working on playing catch up.
Glad to have you back! I hope you're feeling better!
Did Cherry knock out Bojask? I'm not sure if I should attack him or shift my focus to one of the thugs.
Sorry for the late reply Orendel, Bojask is out, but to move forward you can take a double turn. Shouldn't affect much due to how tightly packed you all are.
Thank you!
Sorry for the radio silence for the past two days. I was asked to switch to mid-shifts for two days because one of my co-workers got her wisdom teeth pulled, and I came down with an obnoxious cold at the same time, so I needed my rest in-between.
back from vacation
Welcome back, buckaroo! :)
Thank you darling!
I propose the following order:
Cherry (when scouting) / Orendel / Dougal / Tunka / Cherry (when not scouting) / Syeira / Silvio.
Open the doors to side rooms as we go, but don't waste time investigating if there's nobody inside.
Syeira can light the way with Dancing Lights.
If the people in the middle want to change the order, that's fine. I mainly think Cherry/Orendel in front, and me as a rearguard. 5-foot hallways are probably not ideal for our group, but so it goes.
Fine with me!
Fine with me!
Seconded.
