My computer is down with all of my notes and character information, so I will be unable to contribute until I can figure out how to undo whatever’s caused this.
Variel, Lara has posted her actions for the surprise round and Cynehelm informed he would be offline for a while, so I guess he needs to be botted.
Here is an update on my situation:
GOOD NEWS:
At long last my house has been wired for Internet and my service is on.
BAD NEWS:
My computer seems to have suffered total failure in the move, possibly from static discharge. So I now have no computer. If it weren’t for bad luck I’d have had no luck at all lately.
THE PLAN:
I have ordered a new motherboard and CPU from NewEgg. They should arrive tomorrow. I built the computer myself and so should be able to rebuild it. I hope to be up and running by the Monday the 27th, but see my previous comments on luck...
NOTE:
If this is a game I play in, I’m sorry for my absence. If this is a game I GM, I’m very sorry. If this is a game I’m supposed to be GMing but have not yet begun... it gets better.
Paizo has been down all week so no harm thus far.
Seems to back up now (fingers crossed)
Okee-dokee. I think we're ready to roll.
After more than a month, I've finally gotten Internet access again. Seems as though the site's been down most of that time, so not much loss there.
On the other hand, I'm leaving on Monday the 3rd for a week at the beach with my kids and won't have any access out there, either. I'll try to catch up this weekend at the least.
Still here
back up for now I guess. Hopefully it stays that way.
Waiting for site stability to resume, but I’m here.
I hope it stays stable too...
Oh well, at least it gave me a chance to review ancient Greek and Latin grammar a bit more the last couple of weeks (like, big whoop, eh?)
AND I even got to hang out in the dentist's office for another root canal! Oh joy, oh rapture! :P
Fingers crossed.
Headed out on vacation. I anticipate having access and probably more opportunities to use it, but one can never be certain. Please bot as necessary - but it shouldn’t be necessary.
Not feeling best so update tomorrow
Feel better DM V!
Sorry for my delay.
Out of town for my Mum's birthday and a wake as well.
Sorry for my lack of posting this week. I've been very sick and been doing little more than sleeping. Still feeling horrible but I will start getting into things again.
Oh, really sorry to hear you’ve been under the weather! Hope you’re back up to speed soon! (Not worried about for the game, that will work itself out.)
Wife using the computer for work so will update tomorrow.
Guys in the interest of keeping things moving I am going to implement a 2 day posting rule. If you have not posted in 2 days then any one is free to bot them or I will myself when I get to it that night. I know I have been slow to post sometimes but want to make a concerted effort to speed the game up.
Apologies for my absence, everyone. Got totally wrapped up in my studies (including three midterm tests), and a couple of fiddly computer problems.
I should be good to go now...
@ DM Varial: that sounds totally reasonable to me!
Helgash and I seem to have vanished from the map
There does seem to be a posting problem here on the boards with delayed posts
I see what you mean. The gameplay thread says ***4 posts but only ***3 are showing up.
Hit refresh. I find that works most of the time lately.
lately some of my posts disappear until I hit refresh
I’m seeing the same as Orgar. If I refresh the page, it’s there. If I exit the thread, I see my post listed as most recent. Just happy that when I try to log in, there’s a site responding.
Yep, same here - site is definitely acting up again... Brace yourselves.
Sorry for my lack of posts, I'm away from home for a few weeks looking after my father. I have some internet, but most of my time is taken up with Dad. I meant to give you a post about it earlier. If I'm slow please keep botting me.
Perfectly understandable man - RL first.
Hope all turns out for the best.
Oh, man, don't worry about us. Thanks for letting us know, but as Helgash says, RL first, always.
Prayers for your father and yourself.
re: Cynehelm's death.
Meh, that's the way the cookie crumbles. He was fun, but if we can't save him I'm ready to roll up someone new!
Is this pretty much a wrap? Party is either out,dead,confused or dominated.
Duardlara and Manos are still fighting the bad guy. That's not to say we aren't going to bail as a party and retreat.
Re: Cynehelm, too bad in his mental state he would not have been able to heal himself.
Yeah, this feels TPK-ish to me.
Maybe the remaining good guys should bug out and hire some heroes to help them retake the Dancing Hut?
Eh. Unless I just do Jetro Mk.2 I don't really have an interest in making a 10th level character. Hours trying to do a totally different build and picking through equipment because there is that kinda unspoken rule about one needing a completely different character for a replacement.
Hours? I have five or six characters ready to go right now. :-)
Yep, it doesn't look good. I guess everything went as bad as it possibly could for us.
Well a new PC means I would get WBL. Right now Jetro is 10th level and just has 10k worth of equipment
+1 Breastsplate (2000)
+1 Shock Longbow (8000)
I'll wait to see how things fall out before I decide on a new character.
What a great time to return!
Anybody have any obvious potions or wands of cure that Manos can grab and use?
Looking at the map I seem to be out of combat for the moment, so reloading pistol and trying to get people conscious again seems to be the best plan.
Your pistol is currently loaded so you could take a shot now if you wanted to. Or you could step up and attack it in melee as you also have your rapier out.
Or you could delay and see what Helgash and Greta do. A solid 1-2 by then could drop the creature.
Sounds like a plan, Manos will hold till he sees the results of Helgash and Greata attacking this horror.
I thought you did really well thanks. Things immune to precision damage are a real leveler for Rogues. :(
While I was driving, I believe he took 17 points of damage, so Helgash just undid all of that. I wasn’t sure if you had any injuries before RL summoned you away.
Out sick. Will return in a day or two.
Merry Christmas everyone! HOHOHO!!
I have a moment to myself so I'm dropping in to wish everyone a very merry Christmas!
Have a wonderful (and safe) holiday people.
Merry Christmas
