Per Umikh's request, compiled and alphabetized.
EDIT
Okay -- I've removed the list from here. Let's try voting on this Google Form and see how that goes: Choosing a group name
I've used check boxes so you can vote on more than one name because with something like 25 choices, it would be very easy for us all to vote for something else. I'm going to suggest that you try to limit your votes to say your top 3 choices (probably there's a way to do that in the poll, but I've never created one before, so I don't know how to do that).

I would not have been unhappy with the Khitt Khatt Brrigade, but it was not in my top 3 votes. :-)
You rock Baldrick! Fancy voting sheet and everything! Muchas gracias.

Hahah, while the Khitt Khatt Brigade is hilarious, I have recently become partial to the Mead Hall Irregulars... Maybe it's all the Battletech I have encountered recently... >.<

Thanks!
I think we are just waiting on Avendryl and Gideon (and maybe Greycastle?)

I figure I am the tie breaker.

Baldrick Longhall |

I don't think we want to spend too much time on this -- I'm going to give this until the end of today. I'll announce the results tomorrow morning*, and we can proceed with the game.
*morning for me, in the Mountain timezone, that is.

Umikh Ironbender |

I think decide where to go next. We can try to follow where the duergar came from, try to get more info about the chadlryn (yeah I can't spell it) dragon, fix of Good Mead first and then do all that, something else entirely?

Sounds good. I meant to have a post up today but didn’t make it. :(. The plan is to move south in search of the dwarves correct?

Baldrick Longhall |

Sounds like we're going to need that tie-breaker, Greycastle!

I can’t see any results yet. Which names am I voting on to break the tie?

Baldrick Longhall |

oh sorry -- forgot to mention that I sent you a PM about that yesterday

It will be shortened to the Irregulars more than likely but I liked Mead Hall cause it reflected Good Mead.

Sounds good!
Final tally is:
Mead Hall Irregulars: 4
Icewind Irregulars: 3
Forgers of Good Will: 2
... and like seven others at 1 vote
I know Mellaina was hoping for something a bit more alliterative (me too, tbh), but for now the group has a much stronger connection to Good Mead than to the rest of the Dale, so I think this works out well.
Thanks to everyone for participating in my little voting experiment!

Greycastle |

If it gets us moving again, that's good enough for me! The name won't be able to ruin my fun.
To be fair, it wasn’t the name that was holding us up. Lol. Just my somewhat spastic posting rate.

Greycastle |

as long as an eladrin is mentioned lol
Well, Eladrin are not super common, so that would make them Irregular. Seems as the the new name covers your concern. :)

Avendryl Silvermoon |

Pretty sure I've lost track of where things are on this one. Might be better off for me to bow out here.

Turquoise 'Turq' Barreltap AL |

Sad to see you go, Avi. Thank you for joining us for the time you did!

Baldrick Longhall |

Humans might as well be dwarves to the eladrin :P

DM, since we have lost our wizardly magic, were there anyone submissions that were in the recruitment a few months ago?

I had an interview today and an interview yesterday. The interview yesterday seemed like a great opportunity as they may want me to begin doing administrative work for the school and they would sponsor the hours that I need for the license. I got some information as well today from a couple of community colleges in the area looking for professors, one in their teacher education department and the other in the TESOL department.

Nice!
My buddy just got a position at a community college in Oregon (which finally gets him out of LA, which he hated)

I interviewed with the local Job Corp yesterday and had an interview today with a local middle school charter. The interviews are not the problem, the hearing back is the issue, I find it highly unprofessional when an administrator cannot be bothered to at least tell me go to the Inferno but to ghost an interviewee is really unprofessional.

Baldrick Longhall |

Nice!
What will you be teaching?

Turquoise 'Turq' Barreltap AL |

@Turq, nothing in the ability applies concentration, while another ability on the stat block explicitly states the use of concentration. So I’m gonna say no, the enlarge is not concentration based. I think this came up back in Easthaven with the tiny Duergar on the boat
Okay, was wondering if it says they can cast enlarge/reduce or if it lists it as something else.

Okay, I have some questions for those of you with a bit more work force corporate experience than I have:
So when I interviewed last Wed. I was told that I should hear something by Friday from HR and if I did not I was to call the Site Director on Monday. Nothing on Friday so I called the Site Director who seemed surprised that I had not been contacted. He told me that I should be getting some good news from HR and that he was going to call them and tell them that I was still interested in the job.
Not hearing anything on Monday, I let yesterday go waiting for the call and most of today. I left the Site Manager a message this afternoon saying I still had not heard anything from HR but that I was still interested.
How can the silence from HR be interpreted? How much do I but the Site Manager about it? Is calling on Friday okay or waiting until next Monday? Do I take it on the word of the Site Manager that I have the position?
The waiting is killing me, especially since I have not had a job since the end of December.

Baldrick Longhall |

Is there someone in HR who you could contact (maybe they had a rep at the interview)?
I don't know anything about Job Force, but things move pretty slowly at our university...

Rodalas Windrace |

I think that I have the email from the lady that set up the interview with me. I can see what her title is.

Rodalas Windrace |

It looks like the lady who set up the interview is on the academic and not the HR side of things.
How much do I ask before I become a pest and they say bye?

Rodalas Windrace |

The job does come through people who are contracted through the Dept of Labor, I think, it is not the Dept of Ed.
