I just replied to both of them.


You may submit a new character, Hilda. Do you want me to give you 24 hours to prepare the character before posting?


I am back everyone! I apologize for the delay. If you want a rundown of what happened, I can provide a transcription of what Sanguinus_Draconis posted in my other threads.

Has everyone given up on this game or are people still game for it?


Sorry for not posting everyone. Wrecks will do that to you. I will be posting sometime today. I may get my girl to type, since it might be hard to type with one hand. No worries, I still have both hands! Stupid casts suck. I'm probably rambling a bit due to the pain medicine and for that I apologize. It's almost 5:30 A.M. here, so I will probably go back to bed soon, assuming my blood pressure/sugar/whatever doesn't have to be checked soon. If you would like my cell phone number in case some other crap happens like this, please PM me. I can include pictures of the wreck, if you ask me for them. Anyway, I do sincerely apologize for massive inconvenience that I have put you all through with this.

As a note, Sanguinus_Draconis will be returning soon, hopefully, but he has decided to drop the games he is a PC in. I will try to find a replacement for him, so no worries.


I did?! *Looks at ownership* YES!!! I will be at a couples thing tonight (Not a swinger's party), so expect a post REALLY early tomorrow morning!


Ok, understood. Sorry for the delay in replies. The dorm net was down before Easter and afterwards I checked my inbox and saw that there was a massive project due after Spring Break, which is now complete.


Alyna?


Hmmm... it looks like I may have to create a new thread so we can actually get to the game. All for creating a new gameplay thread and linking this one to it for reference?


Still no change in ownership? I'll give it until tomorrow and, if ownership hasn't transferred, I will be spamming them with 3-5 emails.


If this is not solved by today, how long does everyone want to wait before figuring out an alternative to thread transfer?


Still hasn't been changed, I see. I just sent them another e-mail, because I don't want to keep you all waiting to play. I hope everyone knows I am working to get this thing started, I am just waiting until I can get complete control over the threads so we can do this much easier.


Hmmm... why is the thread not transferring? I sent the email out a few days ago. I will wait one more day, then send a reminder to Paizo.


Max HP per HD is how I handle it.


Ah ok, no problem.

How does that Wayfinder app work, by the way? I have seen some comment that it is horrible and some comment that it is awesome? How is it?


Suna, I think the boost would be great, so unless there are objections, everyone can expect to pad out a bit more with stats.

Hilda, you may have a sword forged of noqual, provided you pay that extra 430 GP. I see that you do not have anything into Craft. Was this intentional or an oversight? Just curious due to your background. I'm not super anal about it, just wondering.


Hmmm... trying to think of how we can incorporate those extra points into the campaign. I would like to introduce it via a story event, if everyone is ok with that. A nice boost would be in order for PCs, given a few 'squick points' in the AP where the difficulty is ramped up a little further than may be acceptable for long-running PBP games. Also, I would like to give PCs a boost so that they can invest more of their feats and such into things that are flavorful and that they want to take, rather than just the 'core optimization' necessary to survive.

Hey Suna, we're all Orcs at heart: kill our enemies and take their loot! Sure, we're sociable and have morals, but those are just nice side-benefits of being an adventurer! :P

Hilda, what is your backstory?

Also everyone, the final PC should be showing his face soon. I will post his character while he creates his profile.


Hopefully the transfer will finalize today and we can begin playing tonight or tomorrow. Just out of curiosity, what is everyone's posting habits?


Hilda, use 1,000 GP and give yourself a free adamantine weapon of any sort that you are proficient with so you are brought up to the party's current level.


I was getting worried that everyone had lost interest! I'm glad everyone, or at least almost everyone, has returned.

By all means, Suna, invite him/her! Assuming no one else shows up, my buddy is wanting to play as well, so we should end up with a full group.


Has everyone else left but the two of you?


Thanks Bobafett! May I call you Bob? Also, where are the others?


Nice! So if I provide you the maps, you can make these?

Bobafett, Splintertwin/Spellskite is INSANE in a RUB control deck and is really fun to play. I can make some people /ragequit fast. Nice Abzan-color deck by the way! I learned Magic a while back from my PTQ-winning buddy, who actually won in Alaska's pretty competitive MTG scene a few years back, and have been crushing souls ever since! I actually have a blue/black control deck for standard built around clones, Thought Sieze, Chasm Skulker, and lots of draw, counter, and other control effects. It is quite sadistic, if I say so myself, and gives the current Abzan Midrange and Sultai Whip decks absolute fits.

Bitha, that is perfectly fine, as it will likely take me a few days to get control of the campaign, catch up on all of the posting, and get the thread moving!


You're welcome!

Bobafett, what is your preferred format? I'm a Modern and Commander man, myself.
I would very much appreciate map uploads, as it saves me a bit on the workload. My Google Docs has some issues at times.
I will email Paizo about taking over the campaign, so hopefully I should have GM rights to the thread in a few days.
